It was horrible. To have someone disrespect your time as if theirs was so valuable. I guess the fact is we don't live in a service oriented world where people take pride in their work anymore. However, I will give it another try and see if I can find a better company to deal with in this matter. Please do not use them unless you have no job or responsibilities.
Description of Work: The provider did nothing. I setup an appointment with them back in February. They stated then that they could not get to me until today, 3/27/2015. This is more than a month later. I setup an appoint at that time for 1:00 pm today. I took leave from work to accommodate their schedule. I let my work know a month ago so that they may plan. The provider did not show up and did not call. In this digital age it seems that there is no reason that you can't communicate. You could send a text message saying, "no" or "I'm out" for example. When I called them they did not have a record of my appointment. It was the same gentleman, Jerald Hopkins, I made the appointment with on the phone originally. He did not apologize. He simply asked if I would like to have them install next week. I told him I took leave from work and he stated that I would have to use the same time next week after I told him I would be unable to take the leave from work again. I find this to be very unprofessional and disrespectful of others time. I know I take my profession more serious than that and if I failed to live up to my responsibilities I would do whatever it takes to make up for it.

It went very well. He was prompt, professional and very informed on what needed to be done and how much it could cost. The actual cost were inline with expectations and could explain new discoveries in existing wiring.
Description of Work: Installed an alarm system using existing sensors including standard stuff (keypads, main console, etc)

He was quite willing to do this as compared to larger companies that would not. He was professional, and had lots of ideas on how to do it. He did a beautiful installation and charged what I consider an extremely reasonable fee. Using Jerald, I saved about $2500.00 from quoted charges from others. I will use him in the future.
Description of Work: Jerald Hopkins installed a CCTV system with 4 cameras that I purchased elsewhere.

I am extremely impressed with the services Jerald Hopkins provided for me at my home in Rockwall, Texas. If needed in the future, I will definitely call on him again. He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the installation of security systems.
Description of Work: Initially, I purchased a "SAMSUNG" security system from Fry's Electronics, Garland, Texas. It was a "complete unit" and cost around $850.00. I wanted a "professional" system (not a JUNK system) since I had something stolen from my front yard that I owned for approximately 18 years. Mr. Hopkins HIGHLY RECOMMENDS you contact him first PRIOR to buying a CCTV system since some of the units that you can purchase these days are not a complete unit. Mr. Hopkins was extremely impressed with the system that I purchased from Fry's Electronics, Garland, Texas. Jerald Hopkins, Digital Security Systems, installed my SAMSUNG CCTV system with four outdoor cameras (2 for the front yard, 2 in the back), and 1 DVR/Monitor at my home in Rockwall, Texas. I thought that he was extremely professional. He is also very knowledgeable regarding the installation of such units and how to operate them. Most of his work is currently commercial; however, he does do work for homeowners. He does: Alarm Systems; Cameras and Recorders (DVR); and Access Control. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jerald Hopkins, Digital Control Systems for any work that you may have!
