FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you prevent false alarms with commercial intrusion systems?
We use dual-technology motion sensors (PIR + microwave) that require both technologies to trigger before alarming — this eliminates false trips from HVAC drafts, animals, and temperature changes. We also configure entry/exit delays and zone types for each door and sensor.
What happens when a commercial alarm goes off?
The alarm panel transmits a signal to our UL-listed central monitoring station immediately. The operator follows your custom call list — calling the premises first to verify, then dispatching police if no authorized person responds. Video-verified alarms receive priority police response in most NH jurisdictions.
Can I arm and disarm my alarm system from my phone?
Yes. Modern alarm panels support full mobile app control — arm, disarm, check zone status, and receive push notifications for any alarm event. You can also set automated schedules and grant temporary codes to contractors or cleaning staff with time-restricted access.
Wired vs. wireless alarm sensors — which is better?
Wired sensors are more reliable and never need battery changes, making them ideal for new construction. Wireless sensors work well in existing buildings where running wire would require wall damage. Modern wireless sensors have 5–8 year battery life and encrypted signals. We recommend a hybrid approach.
Do you offer alarm monitoring without a long-term contract?
Yes. We offer month-to-month monitoring agreements with no long-term lock-in. If we are not earning your business every month, you should be free to leave. Our monitoring rates are competitive because we own the relationship — no third-party dealer markups.
Can intrusion alarms integrate with security cameras?
Absolutely. When an alarm triggers, your <a href='/services/security-cameras/'>security camera system</a> can capture video of the zone and transmit it to the central station — this is called video verification. Verified alarms receive priority police dispatch in most New Hampshire jurisdictions, cutting response time significantly.
Testimonials
What Our Customers Say
★★★★★"Arcomm upgraded our intrusion system with cellular backup and remote monitoring. We get instant alerts on our phones for any event after hours."
★★★★★"Our old alarm system had out-of-date panels and no remote management. Arcomm brought everything up to code and gave us centralized monitoring across three buildings."
★★★★★"The Bosch panels Arcomm installed are rock solid. After a false alarm issue with our previous provider, the difference in system reliability is night and day."
Commercial Intrusion Alarm Systems in New Hampshire
Arcomm Communications has been protecting New Hampshire businesses with commercial-grade intrusion alarm systems since 1985. From motion sensors and door contacts to glass-break detectors and 24/7 central station monitoring, we build security systems that deter intruders, detect breaches, and dispatch help — not false alarms that make your staff ignore the siren.
A commercial alarm system needs to do more than make noise. It needs to detect real threats reliably, communicate with a monitoring station that dispatches police, and integrate with your cameras and access control so you have a complete picture of every security event. We design systems that work together — motion sensors that trigger camera recording, alarms that send verified video to the central station, and access control events that log alongside intrusion alerts.
Dual-Tech Sensors: Eliminating False Alarms at the Source
False alarms are the number-one reason businesses lose confidence in their alarm system. When the siren goes off for the fifth time this month because a sensor picked up an HVAC draft, your staff stops paying attention — and that is exactly when a real break-in goes unnoticed. We solve this problem with dual-technology motion sensors that require both passive infrared and microwave detection to trigger. If only one technology detects motion, the sensor holds. Only when both confirm movement does the alarm activate. The result: near-zero false alarms.
We also configure zone types, entry/exit delays, and sensitivity settings for each sensor based on its location and the environment it operates in. A warehouse sensor needs different tuning than a lobby sensor. An exterior door contact needs different timing than an interior motion zone. Our technicians walk your facility and set every parameter correctly.
Our Alarm System Installation Process
1. Site Walk
We visit your facility to assess the physical environment, identify entry points and vulnerable zones, evaluate existing wiring infrastructure, and understand your operational schedule. This assessment ensures we place sensors where they matter and configure the system for your specific building.
2. Design and Scope
Our team creates a detailed alarm design with sensor placement, zone definitions, cabling paths, and monitoring plan — all in a fixed-price proposal. You see every sensor, keypad, and monthly monitoring cost before we start.
3. Install and Configure
Our NH-based technicians install every sensor, keypad, and communicator. We program zones, configure entry/exit delays, set up mobile app access, and connect the panel to our UL-listed central station. We integrate your alarm with existing security cameras for video verification.
4. Training and Monitoring
We train your team on arming, disarming, mobile app operation, and what happens when an alarm triggers. Your system connects to our UL-listed central monitoring station for 24/7 protection, with video verification available for priority police dispatch.
Alarm Platforms We Install and Monitor
We install and monitor commercial intrusion alarm systems from the manufacturers that deliver reliable performance in demanding environments. Bosch alarm panels are the workhorse of commercial security — modular, expandable, and proven in thousands of installations. Their Solution and B-Series panels support from 8 to 240 zones, integrated with access control and video for a unified security platform. Alarm.com provides cloud-connected alarm management with a powerful mobile app, smart automation, and video verification — ideal for businesses that want to arm, disarm, monitor, and manage their security from any device.
We also integrate intrusion alarm panels with HID Global credential readers for combined alarm and access control arming stations. See our full list of technology partners.
Video Verification: Priority Police Response in NH
Video verification transforms your alarm system from a notification tool into an evidence-gathering platform. When an intrusion sensor triggers, your security cameras automatically capture video of the affected zone and transmit it to the central station operator. The operator views the clip before calling the dispatch — confirming that a real person is on the property, not a loose balloon or a faulty sensor.
In most New Hampshire jurisdictions, video-verified alarms receive priority police dispatch because the central station can confirm a crime is in progress. This means faster response times and higher arrest rates. For businesses with camera systems already in place, adding video verification to your alarm monitoring is straightforward and cost-effective.
Month-to-Month Monitoring: No Long-Term Contracts
We offer month-to-month alarm monitoring agreements with no long-term lock-in. We believe that if we are not earning your business every month, you should be free to leave. Our monitoring rates are competitive because we own the entire relationship — no third-party dealer markups, no hidden fees, no automatic renewal traps. You get UL-listed central station monitoring, video verification, and mobile app control without committing to a multi-year contract.
