AlarmForce in 2010
Headquartered in Toronto, Canada, AlarmForce Industries Inc. is a leader in two-way voice home security. The Company manufactures, installs and monitors both burglar alarm and personal security response systems. The AlarmForce brand, highly recognized across Canada for its affordable two-way voice response, has also gained considerable strength in North Carolina, Ohio and Georgia in recent years.
AlarmForce is synonymous with peace of mind. For more than twenty years, the company has concentrated on developing reliable, sophisticated, user–friendly technology. Our passion for excellence has given AlarmForce subscribers a strong and long-standing feeling of confidence and security. Our commitment to the installation of high quality, advanced protection is coupled with our dedication to providing accessible security at an affordable price.
ALARMVOICE AND ALARMCARE
Alarmvoice is the cornerstone of the Company. In the event of an intrusion, a two-way voice connection is established between the premises and our Central Monitoring Station. Upon receipt of a signal, highly trained AlarmForce personnel voice-threaten the intruder and dispatch the authorities. The live response has been shown to hasten a burglar’s speedy retreat. Two-way voice technology is also very effective in reducing the incidence of false alarms and the easily recognizable AlarmForce logo has deterred intrusion in AlarmForce protected premises. As an additional level of protection, AlarmPlus, our proprietary line cut technology, eliminates the possibility of disabling the security system by tampering with premises’ telephone lines
AlarmCare utilizes the Company’s two-way voice technology to keep an additional segment of the population safe and protected. AlarmCare, our personal emergency response system, is designed to enable our customers to live independently and with confidence. AlarmCare is particularly popular with the elderly and persons with medical conditions or disabilities, who are drawn to this innovative product for its ease of operation and the comfort and safety it provides. With a low monthly fee and no additional costs, AlarmCare offers an excellent alternative to assisted living. Both Alarmvoice and AlarmCare are very affordable and easy to use. These attributes, coupled with our award winning customer service, are responsible for numerous client referrals.
AN EXCITING 2010
AlarmForce is looking to continue our astounding growth in two ways. The first is to strategically expand our marketplace coverage. The Company’s U.S. growth has been very positive and steady since our 2005 entry into the U.S. market and we are excited about the addition of Minnesota to AlarmForce’s area of coverage. This adds five million people to the over thirty million population already included in those U.S. states served by AlarmForce. Using the same successful advertising model as in Canada, brand recognition has grown consistently in our existing American markets, making AlarmForce a strong competitor.
The second way we anticipate growth is by expanding our product line. Continuing our enduring commitment to research and development, AlarmForce has been working on a new product designed to visually monitor a residence through remote video access. This system will provide live video streaming over the client’s broadband connection, allowing the customer to view and interact with the home at all times, from anywhere in the world.
Our policy of technological advancement, affordability and superior customer care has provided exceptional value to our customers. We are confident that our strong financial position coupled with our successful business model will contribute to an exciting and profitable 2010.

It was five days before Christmas in 2009, when I was finally getting off of work, to come home and enjoy my holidays. I had been in Northern Alberta and British Columbia working for awhile and not getting the chance to come home very often. My landlord of the house, my spouse and I were renting, lived across the street and was able to watch our house while we were both out of town. It was 9:00pm the night before I flew home, when my landlord called to say our house had gotten broken into. I was very frustrated, upset and angry mainly because I come from a small town in Saskatchewan and not a lot of crime goes on. I did not know what to expect when I got home to see if all of our belongings were missing and the house destroyed. I remember coming home from the airport, very scared, not wanting to even stay at my house over night. When I got home, there was this feeling of someone there, but really there wasn't. Everything seemed to still be intact, and not missing, but I did not feel safe staying there by myself that night. I decided to stay with family. The next day, I called Alarm Force to have a system set up in our house. I was leaving for Saskatchewan within 72 hours, and no one from alarm force could come. This was very understandable since it was short timing. I explained to AlarmForce over the phone what had happened, how I did not feel safe, and I wanted to purchase a system. AlarmForce was very helpful. Their best intention was to get a system for me installed as soon as possible so I would feel safe in my own home. AlarmForce was very helpful and they worked with my landlord and me in installing a system in my house, even knowing me and my spouse were gone from Christmas. After Christmas I came home to find a wonderful, easy, accessible alarm to use that was very understanding to learn. The best part was how much room the alarm took up, which was not much! The amount of money I have to pay for having the alarm is well worth than having my belongings maybe gone one day, or myself in danger. I like how the payment system is set up on a monthly payment, and I can transfer my system to friends or family if need be. We still live in the house so it is definitely paying off. I also love that if we were to move, we can move our system to different locations. I am more home now, than I used to be but my spouse is still out of town lots. I sometimes get very nervous staying by myself which affects sometimes the way I sleep. Being paranoid about staying in a house by yourself is not a very good feeling. It bothers me a lot that for whoever broke in knows where I live and what belongings are in the house. Will they return? But when I put my alarm system on while I am in the house, and at night going to sleep- the system makes me feel very stress and paranoid free. I know if something was to happen and someone had gotten into my house- help would be around the corner. One time, my family was up visiting with our family dog, and we were going out for supper. I was not used to having a pet around, and I set the alarm not even thinking the dog was in the house. I had received a call from Alarm Force on our way to the restaurant but I missed the call. Next thing I knew, my landlord was calling me to state that he had received a call from AlarmForce. He knew most likely I set the alarm and the dog had been in the house. I was very shocked in how the phone call was sent out asking if everything was okay. This was the first time in over a year, AlarmForce had to call, and it was amazing how comforting the time was and how it did not take long for someone to contact me. This made me feel even better about the purchase we made of installing Alarm Force in our house. I would recommend Alarm Force to anyone who is insisting to have a system put into their house. I have told many people about my story of how Alarm Force was there for me, even if I was not able to be there. I explain to others how comforting it is to have someone “with” you even knowing no body physically is there. It is an affordable way to keep one or one's family safe.
