Safe at home, and everywhere else

Residential and commercial security franchises

Security is big business. We have a lot of things to protect, from our homes to our wireless networks to the annual holiday get-together. Even if you aren’t in a position to launch your own security company from the ground up, there are plenty of franchise opportunities to give you a foothold in the industry.

SHIELD Security Systems

Founded by a former police officer whose own home was burglarized, SHIELD offers preprogrammed alarm equipment as well as video monitoring and fire protection for residential and commercial properties. The franchise fee is $40,000 with a total investment of $75,000 to $125,000. SHIELD’s fanchisee training includes help with finding and training installers.

Security 101

With available territories across the US and successful locations in more than a dozen states, Security 101 offers system design, engineering, installation, and servicing.

IP cameras provide high-quality connected video with remote pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities and audio detection. RFID technology helps libraries track inventory in real time, automating a lot of repetitive tasks and freeing up librarians for more scholarly work. Electronic article surveillance (EAS) systems enable retailers to reduce shrinkage, track inventory, and stock efficiently. The $25,000 franchise fee includes extensive training and marketing tools.

Monitor Closely

Signature Alert

Interactive security lets users know who disarmed a system and when, monitors doors and windows, and notifies when sensors are tripped on sensitive locations—such as the liquor cabinet during your teenager’s sleepover. Two-way voice connection and real-time alerts deliver peace of mind. Franchise fees are $21,000, with $40,000 of capital required to open a new unit.

Eye On Your Home

Vacation homes are great for getting away from it all, but keeping them secure is one of those daily hassles that people want to get away from in the first place. There are few worse buzzkills than packing up and making the trek for a summer vacation or long weekend and finding on arrival that your second home has been broken into. Eye On Your Home handles security, maintenance, and property management so homeowners can relax.

EYESthere

With fast full-service installs and tuning visits 30 and 90 days after installation, customers don’t have to worry about making sure their equipment is still working. Custom HD cameras deliver high-quality video tailored to the site so no corners are left darkened. Franchise opportunities are available across the US.

Signal 88

Sometimes you need more than a camera to keep hotels, offices, and neighborhoods secure. Signal 88 provides patrols and door staff who are vigilant without being intrusive. Quick response times and active deterrence allow customers to rest easy at night knowing someone has their backs. Signal 88 has more than 140 franchises in 400-plus territories.

Franchisees receive 40 hours of initial training plus on-site training during launch to help you through the initial stages.
