Benefits of Local Monitoring

Since 1892, Creating Peace of Mind

You can rely on the fact that we work with local Law Enforcement Centers and Fire Departments to continue to improve our ability to ensure rapid and accurate responses to alarms.

We are Concerned Neighbors

Johns Brothers Security Central Monitoring Station is:

  • Staffed from Hampton Roads
  • 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
  • Immediate Response

You are our neighbor. We treat our customers like people and neighbors, not account numbers.

  • You can rely on our dispatchers to help you with updates and changes to your account.
  • You are able to call and speak with the same person who has helped you before; not a different person in a different time zone each time you call.
  • You can be secure knowing that our staff monitors our LOCAL weather and other pertinent conditions affecting our service area.
  • You live and work in this area, as do we. We have been part of this area since 1892. Johns Brothers has been and continues to be a good neighbor who always supports our community and its charities and organizations.
