What is a Home Security System Installation?

Security systems are made up of multiple devices, such as cameras, alarms, and security sensors, as well as cables and wiring, plus technology like panels and smart home automation technology. The installation process is how all those individual devices and components are brought together in your home or business into one cohesive system.

Benefits of a Professional Security System Installation with CPI

We’re one of the best-known home security installation companies in the Southeast, with a history that dates back to 1991. Here are some of the benefits you can expect when you choose CPI—one of America’s top 10 home security companies—to provide and install your home security.

Flexible, Stress-Free Installation

We understand you’re busy. Our security system installers can work around your schedule with flexible appointments. We also take the stress out of security installation with a transparent process that teaches you how to use your system, removing the pressure of installation and education.

End-to-End Security System Installation Service

We handle every element of your home security installation—there are no subcontractors involved. You’ll speak to one of our team in Charlotte when you order your system. Our security system installers will install your equipment on the day you choose. And our Monitoring Center team will be available immediately should an alarm is triggered.

Expert Advice & Recommendations with Every Install

Our techs consider every inch and angle of your home or business, placing your new panels, sensors, cameras, and more in strategic areas for maximum protection and monitoring. As part of our home security installation service, they will explain how you use the system and won’t leave until you’re satisfied.

Professionally Trained & Vetted Security System Installers

Every CPI employee you meet is part of the CPI family. As the largest privately held security company in the Southeast, we do not subcontract any element of our business. All technicians are local security system installers, professionally trained and board-certified.

Custom Home Security Installation to Fit Your Space

An essential element of security installation is where and how your products are installed. Whether it’s a security camera installation or a home alarm system install, our technicians position your products strategically—hiding all wiring and preventing the trips to the home improvement store commonly associated with DIY installation.

Testing & Education After Your Security Installation

Once your system is installed, our technicians test every product to ensure everything is running as it should, and make sure you understand how to manage your system. Onboarding is an important part of our home security installation service. This saves you time and money, and improves reliability so you can be sure your system works when you need it most.

Our 5-Step Security Camera Installation Process

We have been handling home security camera installation for more than 30 years. Our certified installers have the expertise and experience to correctly set up a range of security cameras, from simple indoor models to more complex outdoor systems.

When we install home security cameras at your property, it works like this:

  1. Site Assessment: Our team will conduct a comprehensive site assessment to identify the best positions for camera placement, ensuring maximum coverage and optimal viewing angles.
  2. Camera Selection: We offer guidance on the best type of cameras to suit your specific needs, including high-definition, night vision, motion-activation, and other advanced features.
  3. Professional Installation: Our security camera installers handle everything from mounting the cameras and running the cables to setting up the recording devices, and connecting the system to your network for remote access.
  4. System Configuration: We’ll configure the system settings according to your preferences, including recording schedules, notification settings, and integration with other devices if necessary.
  5. User Training: Once the installation is complete, we’ll provide a thorough walkthrough of the system, showing you how to access the live feed, review recorded footage, and manage the system settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is professional installation?

The cost of the actual installation of your home security system is free. You will of course have paid for your equipment and monitoring services up front, or via monthly payments with 0% financing. But our fully licensed, professionally trained installers will come and fit your system free of charge.

Why is a home security system important?

A home security system can help to protect your home and your family, giving you reassurance and peace of mind. Property crime across the US was relatively stable between 2021 and mid 2023, according to FBI data, but started to rise in December 2023. Having home security cameras and a 24/7 alarm monitoring service helps to protect you and your property from falling victim to such crime.

Can installing a home security system affect my home insurance?

Yes, having a home security system can affect your home insurance. That’s according to research by insurance comparison service Zebra, which says homeowners can often get up to 10% reduction in the cost of their premiums for having a home security system in place. In this blog it cites several insurers it says offer such discounts but adds that it’s best to check with your specific insurance provider.
