Crime doesn't pay but preventing it is a different story

SHIELD® Security Systems specializes in the sale, installation and monitoring of burglar alarms, fire alarms and other electronic security. To stop a thief, it helps to think like a thief...only smarter. SHIELD Security Systems does. We are pros with years of experience in designing security systems that deter and detect a host of emergency situations. Apply your entrepreneurial skills to develop wealth and a secure future with recurring revenue from long-term customers in a recession-proof industry.

The security industry has shown continuous growth and is expected to top US$200 billion this year. Burglaries occur every 15 seconds, yet 95% of all households do not have alarm systems. Fires accounted for US$12.6 billion in property damages in 1999.

You can operate from your office or home with low inventory requirements, low overhead and high margins. Triple income streams flow from security sales, service and monitoring revenues. A tremendous level of repeat business, where 98% of our customers renew our monitoring services for 8 to 10 years, ensures that you can confidently sustain a solid, loyal client base. We service your customers for you - our 24/7 central station immediately takes charge and notifies local authorities when an emergency situation occurs at your client's property.
