Over 90 years of trusted service
I recently had a technician come out for some minor adjustments and additions. He was very on top of his knowledge. He was thorough as well as helpful. I'd recommend Guardian Alarm of Cleveland to anyone. If you can, ask for Timothy Kapottos. Great work
It was an incredible experience. The guy that came out was very hands on and knowledgeable. Tim Kapottos has a great personality and is great at what he does👏🏾 thank you for helping me protect my family with our new security features👌🏾
Great professionalism and responsive. Also, did not try to oversell equipment or services. Very happy and I know that our office location is secure and protected.
Response from the owner:We appreciate your kind words Nathan!
Great experience with my alarm upgrade. Ryan and Spencer did a great job and were super friendly and helpful. They got the job done really quickly and even enjoyed my cat trying to help them.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing, Kris!
Was able to reinstate my service on phone easily. Saved me travel time and service call expenses. Person on the phone was very professional and actually able to handle my situation.
Ryan was great and very professional answered all my questions and was very quick with the set up of my alarm
Had issue with outside camera. Tech who came was Richard Jennings. Fantastic job very pleasant to work with everything works as it should and even showed us features we did not know we had.
Great, quick service!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Linda!
Our security camera installer Joe Little did an incredible job for us...highly recommended

After 27 years, my home alarm system needed to be brought up to modern standards. I worked with Nicole Jensen in Sales to get a quote on a new system. She was very quick in getting me the information and getting the installation scheduled. Tim Kapottos installed the new system. Tim was very polite and knowledgeable. Tim suggested some changes that would make our system more enjoyable to use and more secure (e.g., replace both of the 27-year-old smoke detectors). After the installation was completed, Tim walked me through the operation of the new system.
