Commercial intrusion detection that never clocks out.
We know what’s at stake when your doors lock and the lights go off.
Acom designs, installs, and monitors intrusion systems that watch over your people, property, and operations — so an empty building never means an unguarded one.
Bryan Beck came out to service our system and was exceptional at communicating what was wrong and what needed to be corrected. He’s the kind of old-school technician who takes the time to help the customer.
The system armed tonight. That is not the same as the system covering you.
Your panel armed without complaint this evening. Arming proves the panel is happy. It proves nothing about the zones.
A panel reports the sensors it can hear. A sensor pointed at a new wall reports nothing, and never faults.
A motion detector ends up facing a stack of pallets. A door contact drifts out of alignment. A glass break sits behind a partition that went up last year. A signal path stops reaching the central station and the panel keeps arming.
All of it arms clean, every night, right up until the night it matters.
When did somebody last walk every zone and watch it trip?
A walk test means a person moving through the building while somebody else confirms the signals landing at the station. Arming without a fault is not a test, it is a formality.
You arm the system and go home. Being sure that meant something is our job, not yours.
Your system, start to finish
The same three steps Acom runs on every system we protect, written for what actually happens on an intrusion project.
We walk the building the way an intruder would.
Entry points, sight lines, interior paths, and what is actually worth protecting. Device placement follows from that.
We deploy, then walk-test every zone.
Vetted equipment installed by certified technicians, then every zone triggered and confirmed at the central station before handover.
We watch it and we service it.
Around-the-clock monitoring, supervised signal paths, and a service team that treats a failed test as urgent.
The layers of a complete intrusion system
Most commercial sites combine several detection types into one coordinated system. Here’s how the major pieces work together.
Door & Window Contacts
Reliable point sensors that flag every opening across entry doors, overhead docks, and ground-floor windows.
Motion Detection
Dual-technology sensors that tell real intruders from routine movement to cut false alarms in busy spaces.
Glass Break Sensors
Acoustic detectors that catch forced entry through windows and storefronts the moment glass shatters.
Perimeter Detection
Exterior beams and sensors that catch intrusion at the fence line before anyone reaches the building.
Panic & Duress
Discreet hold-up and duress devices that summon help instantly during a threat or robbery.
24/7 Central-Station Monitoring
UL-listed monitoring that verifies alarms and dispatches responders day or night, every day of the year.
Purpose-designed protection, not catalog-pulled parts
Every Acom intrusion system is engineered around the way your site actually operates — your access patterns, your blind spots, your compliance obligations. We don’t drop in a boilerplate panel and walk away. Here is what the engagement looks like from first walk to ongoing service.
Site walk & threat assessment
We map your facility, traffic flow, and vulnerable points, then profile the realistic threats your operation faces by shift and season.
Zone mapping & device layout
We divide the site into logical detection zones and specify sensor placement for full coverage with minimal false-alarm exposure.
Phased, low-disruption installation
Certified technicians stage the cutover so detection stays live where it can, keeping your operation running throughout the build.
Acceptance testing & commissioning
We trip every device, confirm signal paths to the central station, and document a clean baseline before the system goes live.
User training & credentialing
Your team learns arm/disarm routines, user codes, and escalation steps so the system fits how people actually work.
Ongoing service & system health
We monitor system health, schedule preventive service, and respond when something needs attention across the system’s life.
From a single retail storefront to a multi-building enterprise campus, Acom scales the same engineering discipline to fit the size and risk of your operation.
Questions business owners ask us
Cost depends on the size of your building, how many entry points and zones you need to cover, the detection types involved, and whether you add monitoring. After a free assessment, we give you a clear, itemized quote — no surprises.
Most commercial installs are completed in a few days, depending on the size of the site. We plan the work in phases so your business keeps running and your protection stays live wherever possible during the build.
Often, yes. During the evaluation we review your existing equipment and design the intrusion system to integrate with what’s worth keeping — so you protect your investment instead of starting over.
The signal goes to our UL-listed central station, where a trained operator verifies the event and follows your call list. When a real threat is confirmed, they dispatch the right responders right away — usually before you’ve even checked your phone.
Our central station operates 24/7, every day of the year, and acts on verified alarms within seconds. Responsiveness is the whole point of monitoring, and it’s something Acom is known for.
Yes. Ongoing service is built into how we work — we monitor system health, handle preventive maintenance, and come out when something needs attention. We don’t disappear after the install.
We offer NDAA-compliant and U.S.-manufactured options for organizations with sourcing or compliance requirements. We’ll confirm what your situation calls for during the evaluation.
Stop wondering. Start sleeping.
Schedule a free, no-obligation site assessment. We’ll walk your facility, identify the gaps, and show you exactly what protecting your operation would look like — no pressure to commit.
