When you’re running a business, the last thing you need is a security system that looks good in a brochure but falls short in real life. That’s the problem with many national providers. They sell you pre-packaged hardware, lock you into long-term contracts, and load you up with features you don’t need, then disappear when you need support.
At ABC Fire & Burglar Alarm, we take a different approach. We build commercial systems that reflect how your business actually operates. No fluff, no locked-in leases, and no waiting days for a technician. Just reliable protection, smart control, and a team that’s local and responsive.
If you’re evaluating your current system or considering a change, here’s what matters and what doesn’t.
You Need Equipment You Can Keep and Control
Leasing might seem convenient at first, but it usually means the equipment isn’t really yours. If you decide to change providers, expand your operation, or cancel a service agreement, you could be stuck with hardware you can’t reuse or worse, forced to pay again for what you already had.
At ABC, the equipment is yours. We don’t use proprietary gear that only works with our name on it, and we don’t bury you in lease agreements or surprise fees. If you move or grow, we help adapt the system to your new layout. Your investment stays in your hands.
And if you’re coming from another provider, we can often take over the equipment you already have. We start with a free system evaluation and, if your existing gear is compatible, we’ll bring it into our monitoring platform without making you start from scratch.
You Don’t Need a Generic Business Bundle
Some security companies offer one-size-fits-all “small business packages” with equipment you don’t want and features you’ll never use. That kind of bundling might work for them, but it doesn’t work for you.
At ABC, we build every system from the ground up. Whether you operate a retail storefront in Metairie, a restaurant in Mid-City, or a warehouse in Slidell, your solution is tailored around your layout, business hours, and real priorities like intrusion detection, access control, live video coverage, and automation that keeps your team efficient and protected.
You Need Visibility and Control, Wherever You Are
Modern business security isn’t just about hardware, it’s about control. Every system we install runs on the Alarm.com platform, so you can access your cameras, door locks, lights, thermostats, and alarms from one dashboard.
You can view your cameras in real time, lock or unlock entry points, receive alerts when employees enter after hours, and automate lighting and HVAC schedules—all from your phone, tablet, or desktop.
No disconnected apps. No clunky interfaces. Just one system that works the way your business works.

You Don’t Need to Wait Days for Help
When something goes wrong, long hold times and outsourced tech support can cost you valuable time. Many large providers send you through call centers and ticket queues before scheduling a technician days later.
That’s not how we do it.
Our team is based right here in the New Orleans area. When you call us, you speak directly to someone who understands your system and your business. And when you need a technician on-site, we can usually get someone there fast—without the red tape.
You Need Real Monitoring That Responds in Real Time
Every ABC system includes 24/7 professional monitoring from a UL-listed, IQ-certified central station. Whether it’s a break-in, a fire, or an environmental alert, trained professionals respond immediately.
This kind of response matters. And we treat it as a core part of your security, not an optional upgrade.
The Bottom Line: Security That Works for You
At ABC Fire & Burglar Alarm, we build security systems that make sense for your building, your team, and your long-term goals. You own your system. You keep your rate. And you get responsive service from a provider who lives and works in the same region you do.
We’re not here to sell you a bundle. We’re here to help you protect what you’ve built.
