Unlock New Revenue Streams with SafeHomeCentral: A Game-Changer for Home Improvement and Security Contractors
Introduction to SafeHomeCentral
Who We Are
For over 38 years, SafeHomeCentral.com has been a trusted name in professional alarm monitoring, proudly serving clients across the United States and Canada. We specialize in helping home improvement and low-voltage contractors expand their service offerings with ease and reliability. Whether you’re an electrician, home theater installer, security integrator, or just dabbling in alarm installations, our flexible solutions are tailor-made to fit your business model. With fully redundant UL-certified central stations and a commitment to no-contract, high-quality service, we’re the partner contractors trust to deliver peace of mind—both for themselves and their customers.
SafeHomeCentral stands out in the crowded field of alarm monitoring by combining low prices, top-tier support, and industry-leading technology. We don’t just monitor alarms; we build long-term partnerships with professionals like you, helping you grow your business while we handle the backend monitoring seamlessly.
Why Contractors Love Working With Us
Contractors love SafeHomeCentral for one simple reason—we make alarm monitoring easy. Whether you’re adding monitoring as a value-add to your main service or building a standalone alarm business, we give you the tools and support to thrive. Our contractor-focused model is designed to remove common pain points: no need to worry about billing, no complex paperwork, and best of all, no risk of us ever taking your customer. You maintain the client relationship, and we provide fast, reliable support on your behalf.
And let’s talk speed. We prioritize contractor support, meaning when you’re onsite and need a customer enrolled now, we get it done—often in less than an hour. That kind of responsiveness is rare in this industry, and it’s just one of the many reasons contractors stick with us year after year.
Two Easy Partnership Models to Fit Your Business
Passthrough Model: Simple and Stress-Free
Ideal for Add-On Services
Not every contractor is in the alarm business full-time. Maybe you’re an electrician who occasionally gets asked about security systems. Maybe you’re a home theater specialist and a client wants to add a basic intrusion system. That’s where our Passthrough Model shines. It’s designed for contractors who see alarm monitoring as a side offering—not a core business.
With the Passthrough Model, you don’t have to worry about creating a separate billing system or customer support channel. You simply direct the customer to sign up on SafeHomeCentral.com using their credit card. That’s it. You stay focused on your core services while we handle the rest—from tech support to enrollment, to long-term monitoring.
How It Works: No Billing Headaches
This model keeps things refreshingly simple. You install the system. The customer completes our Monitoring Enrollment Form directly on our website. They pay us. We support them. And you never have to worry about collecting a monthly fee or dealing with support tickets.
Plus, if there’s ever an issue that requires onsite troubleshooting, we’ll reach out to you—not a third-party tech. That means you stay connected to the customer without being burdened by the ongoing service aspects. This model is perfect for busy contractors who want to offer more without complicating their workflow.
Markup Model: Build a Profitable Monitoring Business
Perfect for Aspiring Alarm Dealers
For contractors ready to take their alarm business to the next level, the Markup Model offers a powerful opportunity. Instead of merely passing customers through to us, you become our direct client. That means you control the customer relationship—and the profits.
Think of this as owning your own alarm company, but without the massive overhead. You sign up for monitoring at our wholesale rates using your company credit card. Then, you charge your customer whatever price you choose based on your market. You keep the difference. It’s that simple. This structure is perfect for small dealers or contractors looking to grow a base of recurring revenue without having to build out a central station or support team.
Many of our most successful partners started with just a few customers and now manage hundreds, enjoying a reliable income stream each month with minimal administrative burden.
Maintain Full Control and Ownership
The Markup Model ensures your customer always remains your customer. We stay behind the scenes, providing tech support and monitoring, but never interfering with your pricing or communication.
To protect your business, we use a special enrollment portal that features no pricing, branding, or references to SafeHomeCentral. It’s a clean, professional interface used exclusively for the central station’s liability agreement. Your customer never knows about our rates, and we never reveal them. Even if a customer contacts us directly for tech help, we support them without ever discussing billing or suggesting alternative plans.
And if a customer tries to bypass you? We alert you immediately. Loyalty matters here. That’s our promise.
Industry-Leading Alarm Monitoring Services
Cutting-Edge Technology and Compatibility
At SafeHomeCentral, we’re proud to offer monitoring services that are compatible with virtually all modern alarm systems. Whether your customer is using Alarm.com, Honeywell’s AlarmNet, Telguard, Alula, or even traditional landline systems, we’ve got them covered.
This flexibility is crucial for contractors who work across different brands and setups. You don’t need to be locked into one ecosystem. Instead, you can give your clients the freedom to choose a solution that fits their needs—without worrying about whether it will work with our service. Our tech team stays up to date on the latest panels and platforms, so if you ever need help with setup, programming, or troubleshooting, just call. We’re here to help, 7 days a week.
UL-Certified, Redundant Central Stations
Your clients want security—and that starts with a reliable monitoring center. We use only UL-certified central stations that are fully redundant. That means no single point of failure. If one site has an outage, others pick up the slack instantly. It’s how we maintain an exceptional standard of uptime and reliability that gives both you and your customers peace of mind.
In contrast, many of our competitors cut costs by partnering with single-site stations or offshoring support. We believe that compromises like that are unacceptable when lives and property are on the line. With SafeHomeCentral, you get the best of both worlds: high-quality infrastructure and affordable pricing.
Same-Day Setup with 7-Day Support
We know your time is valuable. That’s why we offer same-day setup for all customer enrollments—often within the hour. And we’re available 7 days a week, so you never have to wait for Monday to get help.
Contractors get priority service. Whether you’re in the middle of an install or just wrapped one up and want the customer online ASAP, we make it happen. We don’t believe in leaving you hanging. Our team is just a phone call away, and there’s never a charge for tech support—either for you or your customers.
Hassle-Free Tech Support and Onboarding
Fast Customer Enrollments
Our enrollment process is quick and simple, which keeps your projects moving. Whether your customer is signing up directly via SafeHomeCentral.com or you’re using the VanguardSecurityCorp.com portal for a white-labeled experience, everything is designed to be completed in under an hour.
There are no forms to fax, no waiting days for approval. Just a streamlined digital form, an e-signature, and boom—monitoring starts the same day. It’s a modern solution built for today’s fast-paced contractors.
Priority Support for Contractors
When you’re onsite, time is money. That’s why contractors always go to the front of the line. You don’t sit on hold or wait for a callback. We pick up, we act fast, and we get your customer connected while you’re still at the job site. It’s a small thing that makes a big difference, and our contractors appreciate it.
Need help programming a panel? Not sure which communicator to choose? We’ve got you. Our experts are just a call or email away—and we never nickel-and-dime you for support. It’s all included.
Installation and Programming Help—Free of Charge
Running into trouble during a system setup? Don’t worry. We offer hands-on help with installation, programming, and troubleshooting. Our tech support team knows the ins and outs of all major alarm platforms and can walk you through anything from communicator setup to advanced system configuration.
You won’t find this level of support with other monitoring companies, especially not for free. But we believe in investing in our contractors because your success is our success. Whether you’re a seasoned alarm pro or just getting started, we’ve got your back.
Contractor-Friendly Business Philosophy
Zero Contracts, Zero Commitments
One of the biggest pain points contractors face when choosing a monitoring partner is getting locked into long-term contracts. At SafeHomeCentral, we eliminate that problem entirely. Our entire business model is built on freedom—freedom to scale up or down, freedom to walk away at any time, and freedom from complicated legal commitments.
There’s no minimum number of accounts, no cancellation penalties, and absolutely zero contract obligations. You stay because you’re satisfied, not because you’re stuck. That’s how it should be. Whether you’re monitoring five accounts or five hundred, we treat your business with the same level of care and attention.
It’s this kind of flexibility that has attracted so many small and growing contractors to our services. You can start with a single customer and grow organically without worrying about volume thresholds or hidden fees. Our system is designed to grow with you, not pressure you into growth.
No Red Tape—Start Immediately
There’s no application process to become a SafeHomeCentral contractor. We don’t bog you down with forms, credit checks, or vetting procedures. If you’re ready to start offering monitoring, we’re ready to support you. Just give us a call, and you’re in.
This no-barrier entry is part of what makes us so contractor-friendly. We understand that when an opportunity arises—like a client asking about alarm monitoring—you need to act fast. With us, you can. That speed and simplicity can be the difference between closing a deal and watching it slip away.
We Protect Your Customer Relationships
We’ve said it before, but it bears repeating: we do not steal our contractors’ customers. Period.
Your clients are your business. Even in the Markup Model where we interact with your customers for tech support, we never mention pricing, never suggest alternatives, and never market directly to them. If they try to go around you and contact us for direct service, we immediately loop you in and defer to your direction.
Trust is everything in business partnerships. We’ve built our reputation on doing the right thing, and our contractors know it. That’s why many have stayed with us for a decade or more.
Detailed Look at Monitoring Plan Options
Alarm.com Monitoring
For contractors working with modern, interactive alarm systems, Alarm.com is a household name. We offer robust monitoring plans for Alarm.com systems starting at just $13.95/month—no contracts, no gimmicks. Your customers get full remote access, mobile notifications, smart home integration, and more.
And if you’re using the Markup Model, this is an ideal platform for building a high-value recurring revenue stream. Alarm.com systems are feature-rich and user-friendly, making them a premium choice that justifies higher monthly fees.
More importantly, our team understands Alarm.com inside and out. We’ll help you with programming, troubleshooting, and optimizing features so your clients get the most out of their investment.
Honeywell AlarmNet Monitoring
For those installing Honeywell or Resideo systems, we offer comprehensive monitoring solutions via the AlarmNet platform. These plans support Total Connect 2.0 functionality, giving end-users mobile access and control over their security systems.
Plans start at competitive rates, and as with everything else, there are no contracts involved. You can offer high-end Honeywell systems to your clients with the confidence that they’ll receive reliable, professional monitoring.
Need help programming a Vista panel? Setting up a communicator? Our techs are ready to walk you through every step.
Landline Monitoring Plans
Still serving customers who prefer or require a traditional setup? We’ve got you covered there too. Our landline monitoring plans are reliable and affordable, perfect for clients who don’t need remote access features or live in areas with poor cellular coverage.
Starting at just $8.95/month, landline plans provide peace of mind with no frills. These are ideal for budget-conscious customers or retrofit situations where a cellular communicator isn’t practical.
We support all major panel types and can help with DACT programming and line testing.
Alula Interactive Services
Alula is fast becoming a favorite among contractors for its easy installation, sleek design, and user-friendly app. We offer no-contract monitoring for Alula systems starting at just $10.95/month. Your clients get interactive control, notifications, and smart home capabilities without the complexity.
If you haven’t explored Alula as a product line, we highly recommend it. It’s a great way to deliver modern features at mid-tier prices—and we’re fully equipped to support it.
Telguard Cellular Monitoring
Telguard solutions offer cellular communication for traditional panels without requiring full IP/interactive support. We offer monitoring for Telguard-based systems from just $16.95/month, providing a secure, reliable alternative to landlines.
This is a strong option for customers who want basic monitoring without interactive features—or who are upgrading an older system without replacing the entire panel.
Why Choose SafeHomeCentral Over the Competition
Higher Quality, Lower Prices
In an industry where margins matter, SafeHomeCentral strikes the perfect balance between affordability and quality. Unlike many competitors who compromise service to chase the lowest price tag, we maintain ultra-competitive rates without sacrificing performance or reliability.
Our pricing structure starts as low as $8.95/month, and even our feature-rich Alarm.com plans begin at just $13.95. But what makes us stand out isn’t just the cost—it’s what you get for that price. We offer redundant UL-certified central stations, real tech support seven days a week, and zero-contract freedom. Your customers are getting premium service without the premium price, which makes it easier for you to close sales and grow your client base.
When you compare our features, pricing, and contractor support with what’s out there, it becomes crystal clear—we offer more value than anyone else in the space. It’s not just about being cheap. It’s about being better.
No Customer Poaching—Guaranteed
One of the greatest fears contractors have is handing off a customer to a monitoring service only to lose them later. At SafeHomeCentral, we make an unbreakable promise: your customers stay your customers.
This isn’t just marketing fluff. We’ve built our entire backend to respect and protect your business. When a customer you enrolled contacts us, we do not discuss pricing or offer direct alternatives. If they try to go around you, we notify you first. It’s all about loyalty and long-term partnership.
This integrity-first approach is why so many contractors—especially small businesses—feel safe and secure partnering with us. You’ve worked hard to earn your customers’ trust. We help you keep it.
Built for Small Businesses
We know what it’s like to build something from the ground up. Many of our most successful partners started with just a few accounts and now have hundreds. That’s why we’ve designed our services to support small and growing businesses, not just massive dealers.
From no paperwork to fast onboarding to real-time support, everything we do is aimed at helping the little guy win. We understand that you don’t have time to navigate red tape or wait days for callbacks. You need action, and we deliver it.
You don’t need a fleet of trucks or a national presence to offer top-tier alarm monitoring. All you need is a strong partner who respects your business and has your back. That’s us.
Real Contractor Success Stories
Growing from 5 to 500 Customers
Let’s take a moment to highlight just how scalable our model is. One of our early contractor partners—an AV integrator in Ohio—started with just five customers. At the time, monitoring was a small add-on to his core home theater business. He used the Markup Model, charging his clients a reasonable monthly fee and pocketing the margin.
Fast forward five years, and he’s now managing over 500 monitored accounts. The passive monthly income from these accounts has become a cornerstone of his business. And because he doesn’t handle billing or tech support, he’s able to focus on sales and installations.
This is not an outlier. We’ve seen similar growth trajectories with electricians, cabling contractors, even general tech consultants. The secret? They chose the right partner—one that scales with them without eating into their profits.
