My install was started in October of 2013 & as of today I did do not have a fully functional alarm system. They have NO CUSTOMER SERVICE & yesterday informed me that they were not going to fix my alarm system the right way by hard wiring my front door camera, They plan on jury rigging things so they do not have to send someone in my attic to run the hardwire to the front door camera since it would be too hot & not safe for someone to do that at this time of the year. Needless to say I informed them if they had done it right in October, it would not have been this hot! This has been the worse customer experience I have ever experienced in my life! Alarm.com should be embarrassed that they list them as one of their suppliers!

This project took forever to finish. Ordered this last summer,waited forever for the parts. Came out in December to install. This was for a thermostat and wireless key pad. They installed the thermostat with no problem. The keyless pad, was another story. Installer said they ordered the wrong pad. You would think, since we have been a customer for over 12 years, they would know what system we have. Made an appt. in March. Time was anywhere from 11 until 2, pulled in the driveway at 2, sat for 10 minutes on the phone, in van. My husband finally went out to ask what the problem was. Installer, said he was trying to find out why he was here. My husband told him, do we need to reschedule this. Installer agreed and left. We call guardian to complain, and they set up another date. This time again from 11-2 time frame. Arrived 2:30, didn't know how to install. 2 hours later, finally we gave a new wireless key pad. Company service is great, we have no complaint there. It's on the service calls. Terrible!

The problem was they offered me a 3 year term contract for the wireless system which we agreed on however, the offer they emailed me was a 5 year agreement. When I called they said, "oh we know it's only 3 years but we have this form we can't change." After several communications with them telling me I needed to sign and me telling them I would not sign a 5 year agreement when we had a verbal agreement for 3 years, I changed providers and went with a different service.
Description of Work: I had a Guardian system and was having problems with my home telephone lines so Guardian suggested a wireless system which I agreed to have installed.

Overall, the experience was great. When the service tech came to enable the alarm system and train us on it, he really did not provide much detail in his training and did not name the various zones for us. Being that I had an alarm system from a competitor before, I already knew a little bit about alarms.
Description of Work: I used them to install the alarm system and the in ceiling surround sound system in my newly built home.
