A Full Service Company
Our services include: sales, installation, service, central station monitoring, and accounting. We don’t subcontract any of our services so you know who you’ll be dealing with.
Custom Designs
We have packaged systems, but our strength lies in listening to your wants and needs, and then customizing a system to meet those needs.
History
We have been a family owned business since 1959. We have never been bought or sold. Our customers have come to expect that reliability in the services we offer.
Customer Support
We offer 24 hour service on all the systems we install. We only sell one brand of system so we can become experts on that system. You can call us any time and know that we will answer the phone.

Guard Tronic focuses on four categories: Burglary Alarm Systems, Fire Alarm Systems, Access Control Systems, and Camera Systems. Most systems we install include more than one of these categories. We also install systems that don’t fall into these four primary categories, like Nurse Call Systems and Smart Home Systems.
