What is Cellular Alarm Monitoring?

Richard Erickson • October 9, 2023

Remote Access, Flexibility and Security.


Cellular alarm monitoring helps make sure your devices and security system always are connected to Emergency Alert Security's central monitoring stations. In the event of an emergency situation you will have the help you need when you need it.


What is Cellular Alarm Monitoring?

Cellular alarm monitoring is the new standard operating procedure for home security monitoring. Operating on a dedicated cellular channel, the system will send a wireless signal via a secure, encrypted transmission to our monitoring department in case of emergency. Additionally, cellular monitoring uses its own dedicated network to send and receive signals, so you do not need a cell phone to have cellular monitoring on your system.

Are Landlines Obsolete?

Nearly 25% of Americans now live in homes without a landline. And that figure doubles among young adults aged 25-29. While there is no hard cut-off date for landline termination, most will likely be retired in favor of more reliable, cost effective and flexible cellular communication.

What are the Benefits of Cellular Alarm Monitoring?

Cellular monitoring systems are easy to install without the need for drilling or re-wiring in your home or business.


Plus with cellular alarm monitoring, you stay connected no matter what. Since it transmits on a separate, secure wireless network, your system remains in constant communication with the central station. Even when:

  • Power outages cut lines due to extreme weather
  • You change telephone service providers
  • Burglars cut your lines prior to a attempted burglary

The Importance of Home Security Systems During the Holidays

By Richard Erickson • November 25, 2024
The holiday season is a time for joy, family gatherings, and festive celebrations. However, it is also a peak time for home burglaries and security threats. With homes often left unattended during travel or bustling with activity, the need for a robust home security system becomes more critical than ever. Here’s why investing in or upgrading your home security system should be at the top of your holiday checklist.  Increased Risk During the Holidays Vacant Homes : Many families travel during the holidays, leaving their homes vulnerable. Burglars are often on the lookout for signs of an empty house, such as accumulated mail or a lack of lights. Busy Schedules : The hustle and bustle of the season can lead to lapses in routine security measures, like locking doors or securing windows. Package Theft : With the rise of online shopping, packages left on doorsteps are a common target for thieves. Porch piracy spikes significantly during the holiday season. How a Security System Protects Your Home 1. 24/7 Monitoring Modern security systems offer round-the-clock monitoring, ensuring that your property is protected whether you’re at home, out shopping, or traveling for the holidays. Professional monitoring services can alert authorities immediately if an issue arises. 2. Smart Technology Integration Smart home security systems allow you to control and monitor your home remotely. Features like live video feeds, motion detection, and smart locks give you peace of mind and control no matter where you are. 3. Deterrence Factor Visible security cameras, alarm systems, and yard signs act as powerful deterrents to would-be burglars. Most intruders will avoid homes with evident security measures. 4. Protection for Deliveries Video doorbells and motion-activated cameras can help you monitor deliveries and deter package thieves. Many systems also allow two-way communication, enabling you to address delivery drivers or suspicious individuals directly. Additional Tips for Holiday Home Security Automate Your Lights : Use smart plugs or timers to create the illusion of an occupied home, even when you’re away. Secure Entry Points : Reinforce doors and windows with locks and sensors that trigger alerts if tampered with. Keep Travel Plans Private : Avoid posting travel details on social media to prevent broadcasting your absence. Alert Neighbors : Inform trusted neighbors of your travel plans so they can keep an eye on your property. Peace of Mind This Holiday Season The holidays should be a time of joy, not worry. A comprehensive home security system provides more than just protection; it offers peace of mind. Knowing that your home and loved ones are safe allows you to focus on what truly matters: celebrating the season with those you care about most.
