How Does Home Security System Monitoring Work?

Security system monitoring is an invaluable part of keeping your home, your family, and your belongings safe. Monitoring works by having a dedicated team or service continuously watch over your home’s security system, ready to respond to any alerts or emergencies that may arise.

Here is a breakdown of how home security system monitoring typically works:

• When something triggers one of your home’s security system sensors, such as a door opening or motion detected, the security system sends an alert to the control panel.
• The control panel then communicates the alert to a monitoring center operated by your security provider. This communication can occur via a cellular network, internet connection, or landline connection, depending on the type of monitoring service you have.
• Trained operators at the monitoring center will receive the alert and assess the situation. They may attempt to contact you to verify if it’s a false alarm or if you need assistance. If they can’t reach you, they will take the appropriate actions based on their observations.
• If the situation warrants it, like in the case of a break-in or a fire, the monitoring center will dispatch the appropriate emergency services to your home. This may involve dispatching the police, fire department, or medical responders.
