Our Cultural Values

The Core 8

Integrity

Do the right thing, even when no one is watching. Our team acts with integrity, accountability, and honesty above all else. Building trust builds a better company.

Connect

We communicate openly, honestly, transparently, and with integrity in every connection with both our customers as well as our fellow team members.

Own It

We hold ourselves accountable for our actions and outcomes, both good and bad. We don’t pass the blame.

Have Fun

It’s good to surround ourselves with happy, positive, joyful, and motivated people. We laugh, have fun, collaborate, and celebrate the wins. It’s good for both our team and our company.

One Team

We recognize that we are stronger together. We show up for each other, learn from each other, act with empathy, thrive in a diverse and inclusive environment, and treat each other with respect and kindness not for our own personal gain, but for each other.

Evolve & Adapt

Continuous improvement is an expectation of us by our customers, and we share that expectation of ourselves. It’s a responsibility we embrace daily and never stop pursuing. By acting with the courage to challenge the status quo, we seek to understand and evolve with curiosity and determination.

Customer Experience

Our customers are the lifeblood of our business and they entrust their most precious assets to us. We empower our employees to provide solutions and services that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations every time.

Hire to Aspire

We hire people based on who they are and their talents, not just to fill a job. Our employees are the heart and soul of our business and we invest in development, reward excellence in performance, and help you get to where you want to go in your career.

review us on
Prompt service and very polite and professional people.
Guardian's call back was very prompt. The representative listened and ask good questions to clarify my issue. Also connected me to a service tech to make sure I got answers I needed. I recommend Guardian Alarm.
We've been with Guardian for a long time and they have always given us excellent service!
Anthony was very knowledgeable, efficient and respectful
so professional and helpful. happy with the service
I recently had a Guardian Alarm system installed in my home. Lauren Mickens was the rep that got me started on the phone by explaining what would be the best for my home. Two days later, TJ, the Alarm Technician, came to install the system. He had a great sense of humor and explained how everything worked in great detail. Installation took less than 2 hours. The greatest benefit that I find that is so helpful to me is having the app on my phone so that I can arm/disarm the system from wherever I am.
Tim went above and beyond explaining how to use the system and answered any questions we might have had. Best technician
Guardian tech came out within the said time and installed a Form C relay to our fire panel so we could have a new access reader installed on our entry doors. finished in 45 Mins.
I've been with guardian for the past 15 years. Excellent in all ways. I would recommend them highly

I am pleased with the installation of my alarm system. Tim, the technician, went beyond my expectations by ensuring that all my expectations were met and didn’t mind problem-solving to resolve issues during the installation.
The tech at Guardian Alarm stayed on the phone and waited very patiently as I tried to change the battery in my systems motion detection device. I have used Guardian’s services for a dozen years now and I have never been happier.

Service was quick and efficient. May I recommend Guardian to you? And please if available do their protection plan.
Scott and Paul are the absolute best! They are the type of people you want representing your company. Scott was my sales rep and he was more like a really good friend and not just some sales guy. He took the time to go over all of the options that were a available to me and also breaking it all down. Paul came to my home to install the system and he was like a brother or good friend of the family which was awesome! He too went that extra mile to make sure I was covered and understood every. They both left a lasting impression on me that led me to say that I’m a life long customer now and I am. Thanks guys for making the experience one to remember.
Everything went smooth and it’s really easy to use. No surprises just great security.
Guardian customer service called me back twice to get my matter resolved instead of me having to keep calling back.
Working with this company is awesome. We have had this alarm system many years and recently upgraded to the newest camera systems. We have worked through all the technical issues of network extenders etc. They have exceeded my expectations always on time and very helpful. Took the time to explain all the features of the system. A great shout out to A.J, Arman and Jose. Few days later we were refining our system and Imani was soooooo good. She helped us understand and never left us until all was settled we appreciate her patience and knowledge of the system. Highly recommend guardian alarm.
We recently had some upgrades done to our Guardian Alarm system. Justin, the installer, was very professional, knowledgeable, patient, and efficient. After the installation, he took time to carefully explain how all the new equipment, cameras, and new control panel worked. If you are looking for a security system, we recommend Guardian Alarm with Justin as the installer.
I was impressed from start to finish. Scott was wonderful to work with to help me figure out best options for my home. And Justin the installer was a pleasure as well. He made me feel comfortable and was just great with my three dogs. That is something I worry about and he was fantastic!
Scott was absolutely fantastic, very professional. He walked us through our system and gave excellent recommendations for upgrades. We have been a customer of Guardian Alarm for years and will continue to be one of their customers, largely due to their great service and awesome employees. Thank you
I have been a customer of Guardian Alarm for MANY years and appreciate their service and quality. Sales associate Scott F. has been great to work with and we are very happy with our upgraded security system.
I meet with Scott Frenchik who was very helpful and honest about suggestions, he wanted to supply me with what my home needed not just sell equipment. He set up everything, my installer which I apologize but I forget his name but he was the best ever! Super helpful and professional! I would recommend to anyone! Trust me you can see the professional difference!
the installer was very professional ,pleasant personality and made sure I knew how to work the basics and where to go if I needed help .I have been with this company for years I had an upgrade and I am very satisfied.
I was a victim of domestic violence and needed to feel safe in my home. Guardian has done just that for me!Very professional and helpful!I can rest easy now!
We have used Guardian for both business and personal for 25+ years. The installation and monitoring prices are great, and more importantly their service is excellent. Never a wait, and especially then an important issue occurs, which is rarely, they are right on it. Highly recommend.
I love everything about Guardian. Everyone there has been most professional, courteous, helpful & everything department from sales to billing to installation to technical support has been a great experience!
I have been a customer of Guardian Alarm for many years. Recently I had my control panel upgraded. The technicians, Justin and Jim, were knowledgeable, friendly and courteous. They made sure I understood how to use the new panel and the new app. I have only had positive experiences with Guardian Alarm and recommend the company to anyone looking for a home security system.
I have been a customer of Guardian Alarm for many years now and have had a wonderful experience with their service. My relationship started when I met Scott Frenchik, my sales & marketing person. He is very honest and provides the products and services that I requested. I was never oversold and have had regular communication with Scott as we bought & sold residential and commercial properties. I use Guardian Alarm exclusively for all of our properties. I have had a couple of service calls and Guardian's technicians always have resolved our problems. Overall, I am very satisfied with my Guardian Alarm experience and would highly recommend Scott to work with in customizing your property alarm needs. Thank you Guardian Alarm and Scott!
Installing the intercom was kind of a bear, but the tech was so professional and cool about it! So happy with it!
Great place to work and some great people! Protecting the community for the last 90 years!
