An Arlington home security company that values integrity
Some of the core values at Smith Thompson center around honesty and integrity. As such, we will never hide equipment fees from you by raising your monthly rate. On the other hand, we are fully transparent about all the costs associated with your alarm system, even breaking down the cost so that you can see the price of the equipment and monitoring rate individually. This allows you to know exactly what you are paying, leaving you with a standard, low-cost monthly monitoring rate instead. In fact, we lead the industry in affordability and quality in Arlington, Texas.
No contracts. No price increases.

Superb home security systems in Arlington without a commitment! If you’re unhappy with our service, you can go with someone else!
Most alarm monitoring companies will force you to sign a contract with them, ensuring that you will be paying their monthly costs for years. Smith Thompson, on the other hand, has always maintained a “no contract” promise with their customers, meaning that if you are ever unhappy with our services that you can easily leave us to go with another company. In fact, since we are so confident in our services, we’ve never had to rope a customer in with a contract to keep them loyal to us. Instead, your satisfaction with our products and services are our top priority.

“Free alarm systems” are a scam
Many companies allure customers to go with their service by offering a “free” alarm system. However, what most customers don’t realize is that by taking up this offer, they are, in fact, signing a contract to pay off this system with higher monthly payments. Furthermore, even when this system is paid in full, the customer’s monthly payments will still be high. This forces the customer to overpay in monitoring services for years. And what if they are unhappy with their service? Too bad. They have to stick around because they are bound by a contract.
