What is the Hammond Difference? - Proactive Monitoring, Daily Testing, Responsive Service.
Most people don’t know how to tell the difference between the REAL security system they want, and the “alarm” system they will regret buying.
We provide immediate transmission of an alarm signal with no dialer delays. We provide Proactive Monitoring of the vital signs of your system – daily communication, power to the panel and condition of the battery back-up. We offer PhoneIndependent Radio© so you don’t have to rely solely your telephone for transmission of an emergency signal.
With a Hammond Security System, you don’t have to “hope it will work” – you can be sure!
