Ron came by to review our needs and he was very thorough with his inspection and recommendation. He was up to date on all of the fire codes and knew the equipment well. He came back for a second visit to make sure he had all the information. We are not yet ready to do a system upgrade, as our system is still working, but we will consider using Pro-Alert when the time comes.

Ron is a top notch security alarm professional. He upgraded my existing alarm system. He checked everything to make certain it was installed properly and made adjustments as needed. He explained and demonstrated how the entire system operates and answered all my questions. This is a very affordable company and the peace of mind it brings is priceless. I'm very glad I chose ProAlert. Ron went above and beyond for me. I happily signed a 3 year contract and will hopefully have his services for many more to come.

Ron was outstanding to work with along with being very knowledgeble and professional. He sat down with me and explained the entire process and proceeded to personally install the system. Beyond the basic installation , he explained a wide range of security issues and was very personable in doing He really proved his worth even more later as he followed up on a very timely manner on two later issues that occurred through no fault of his own. I'd highly recommend his personalized reasonably priced service to anyone contemplating a new or replacement security system.

From the time I called and inquired about Ron and his services, it went very well. He came out and reviewed our system and listened to our concerns and he had answers for everything. The installation went awesome with no issues. Since then, we had a alarm go off but with their quick service and response no issues arised. I would recommend anyone to this company. Very professional people.

Fantastic!! Ron Baumann, the owner, came to our house to give us an estimate for a whole house security system, with motion sensors,. He gave us an estimate, and when we had additional questions, he came back out to discuss them with us. After accepting the proposal, we were notified quickly about an install date. Ron came out last week to install they system...his work ethic is outstanding! After eight hours of work the system was in place and he then showed us how to use it...another hour of his time. We appreciate his diligence and would highly recommend his company to others looking to install a security system.

I contacted Ron Bauman and he promptly returned my call. We set up a date for installation and he called the day before to confirm. Ron was at our home from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., doing the installation himself and checking each window and door, as well as the sensors. He reviewed the instructions with us thoroughly and sent us follow-up instructions with our invoice. We were very impressed with Ron's thoroughness, attention to detail and his patience with us.

We felt very comfortable with Ron and would trust his integrity and honesty. We appreciate the fact that he drove a long way to give us an estimate. We did choose another company, but our decision was in no way a reflection on Ron or his services.If for any reason the company we did choose does not work out, we would definitely contact Ron again.
Description of Work: We contacted Ron to get an estimate on a home security system. He came out the same day we called him. He was very thorough in answering all of our questions and concerns and explained installation, monthly service fees, equipment, etc.

The provider arrived on time to look at the present security system, and spelled out what he would do to install a new system, and stated the price for the combination of labor and materials. I signed the contract, and an approximate date was set to do the work. The provider kept in touch to schedule the job, and worked steadily to get it done. He showed me how to use the software to control the security system, and scheduled another check of the securuty system the next day to be sure that everything was working.
Description of Work: Components of old alarm system were removed and new parts installed. All sensors were checked as well as security of windows and doors. The system was tested. Software was accessed to provide remote coontrol for system.

As already noted, the job went very well and I feel safer with the system installed. Ron Bauman is great to deal with. My dogs tripped the system off and I got an immediate call from the dispatcher. NIce to know that it is as advertised.
Description of Work: I had a break in and shopped Angie's List for home security systems. ProAlert had the highest rating and more importantly, a local office and specific person to contact. The other vendors were contacted through national offices and completely impersonal. Ron Bauman was easy to contact and set up an evaluation and estimate. He was professional and very thorough. He spent almost an entire day installing the system and teaching me to use it. He has followed up with me to inquire about the system and I feel will be available if I have quesitons. Altogether I was extremely satisfied.

They were prompt in replying to my inquiry and had answers to all my questions over the phone. Accomidated my schedule with a Saturday visit for quotation. They were not pushy into equipment/services I did not desire. The install went well, although my wife commented that the technician went through the equipment operation a little to fast for her. So far the equipment and service is working fine.

Wonderful experience, coulldn't have gone better. I highly recomend Pro Alert Security Systems.
Description of Work: Storm took out our 21 year old security system. Called 3 companies for bid on new system. Our long time provider sent a bid to replace components without coming out to discuss for $4,600 with no upggrades. 2nd company promised to come out but never even called back. Lucily found Pro Alert Security Systems on Angieslist. Ron Bauman, the owner, answered and came out the next day and took a very thorough survey of our very large country home in Lebanon. He provided a significantly upgraded cellular based system with other addittional protection features like water detection and sump pump alarm to protect our finished basement. Ron Bauman is by far the most professional in-home Service Contractor I have ever dealt with. His follow-up and attention to detail are exemplary.

Our request on the internet was answered almost immediately.The security consultant set up a convenient appt. to go over his services. He returned to complete the service promptly. His monitoring fees were less than we had been paying. He was very knowledgeable about the industry and let us know alll that was available and let us make a decision that was right for us.

Ron was extremely easy to work with. He was flexible in scheduling our meetings and the installation of the system. He thoroughly explained the new system and went over all of the functions after installation. I got estimates for updating and monitoring my system from my previous security company and another local company and Proalert's price was the best value.

After we received several estimates, we decided to go with ProAlert because it is a local company and had the best price. Ron was extremely professional and courteous and was actually able to come install our system on very short notice. He spent several hours explaining to us how to use the system and the online access and made sure that all of our questions were answered. We are very pleased with the installation and service.

I originally contacted the company through email, and Ron responded very quickly. He answered several questions, then I had him come over to see my current system and give me a price to convert it to a cellular system with smartphone access. I plan to cancel my landline so I needed a security system that doesn't use the phone line. He answered all my questions, and was the most reasonably priced of the 4 companies I contacted. I signed the contract on Friday, and he was able to install the new system the following Monday. It took about 2 hours for the installation, and he made sure I knew how to use the system before he left. He was able to use my existing motion detectors and door sensors, and reprogrammed my 2 key fobs. He installed a new keypad and alarm panel. I also mentioned Angie's List, and got 3 free months of monitoring. This company bills in 6 or 12 month cycles, not monthly. The cost quoted above includes the installation, new keypad and alarm panel, and 6 months of monitoring. I was very happy with how the process went, and Ron was very patient with all my questions. I definitely recommend ProAlert.

Description of Work: The representative arrived at the appointed time. He inspected the house and discussed the various options and his recommendations. He faxed me a proposal later that day. We made arrangments for the installation. The representative went over the various systems and how to use the keypad. He later called me and helped me set up the online account. He was very helpful and easy to work with.

We interviewed (in person and over the phone) several security alarm service providers including Vector, Vivent, ProtectAmerica, DialOne and a few do-it-your-slef companies. We chose Proalert and Ron Bauman - he had the best service, product, and the price, and was completely no-pressure, taking the time to answer our questions and address our concerns. He also offered the best price for the monthly monitoring service and the equipment price over the 3-year service agreement (which is now standard with all alarm instal companies). Ron spent a good 3 hours with us on a first meeting, looked over our home and went through the options for securing it against burglaries and fire, answering all our questions patiently. Upon agreeing on the best solutions for us, Ron emailed us with the proposal and upon our acceptance, returned to sign the contract and set the instal time for the following Monday. Ron arrived punctually and took an entire day to hardwire and install a complete system, including, door, window, smoke and motion. We are happy with the product, service and the price. When looking at these systems we discovered that they are not inexpensive. We researched the bajezus out of the options and Ron was the best in price (instal and monitoring), quality of product (Honeywell) and cordiality. To have a piece of mind, afterall, is priceless! Thank you Ron and we highly recommend Proalert!

The evauation was very thorough and the recomended system was "right on" to meet our needs. He came back and installed the system just 2 days after signing the agreement. The installation was very professionally done. Ron did it himself and took a whole day to complete. It was very thourghly done with no rushing or cutting corners. He modified the plan based on some last minute requests on our part. He located some of the components per our requests-some of which made the installation more complicated. After completing the installation, he customized the alarm programing per our requests. He then took considerable time exlaining and demonstrating how the system works. We have a lot of confidence in the system based on his professioalism and extra effort to satisfy all our unique requests. You can get systems cheaper and more expensive than this, but you will be hard pressed to get a more professional and thorough installation. This is the best bang for the buck system, and you'll be able to sleep at nite and not worry when you're away.
Description of Work: Ron came to the house and reviewed the physical layout and made recomendations for a home protection system compatible with risks and house circumstances. He came back a few days later and installed the system including door & window alarms and motion detectors. He then progammed the control system and then trained us on how to use the system.

ProAlert installed an alarm system for my business back in 2000. The work was done in a very professional and timely manner. I was so impressed that I had Ron Baumann convert and switch my home system and monitoring over to ProAlert. I have been using ProAlert for the past 11 years now for my business & home and can honestly say I have been completely satisfied with their service and 24 hour monitoring.
Description of Work: ProAlert installed an alarm system for my business. At the time I had received several quotes from different companies. All the other companies sent out estimators, Ron Baumann from ProAlert personally came out to inspect the building and give a quote. I was very impressed with his knowledge and suggestions for complete building coverage and his prices for both instillation and monitoring.

When our house was robbed in the early '90s, we decided to get a security system. After hearing good reports about Pro Alert, we called for an estimate. Their cost was below better known companies and the installation went smoothly. Consideration was taken for ways to keep our pets from setting off the alarm. For the past 15 plus years we have been completely satisified with this company.
Description of Work: We have had our secrurity system for over 15 years and have been very satisified with the service provided. Only once in this time was there a problem and Ron was here promptly to fix it. The response time is immediate when the system has been set off and the contacts have been promptly notified.
