What we install for Phoenix businesses
Intrusion detection
Door and window contacts, motion detectors, and glass break sensors connected to a commercial panel with 24/7 security monitoring from our monitoring center. When the system trips after hours, our operators verify the event, contact your designated people, and request police dispatch when it is needed.
Security cameras and video surveillance
HD cameras covering entrances, exits, parking lots, loading docks, and stockrooms, with live and recorded video from your phone or computer. See Phoenix video surveillance.
Access control
Key cards, fobs, PIN codes, and mobile credentials that control who can enter which doors and when, with a log of every entry. See access control in Phoenix.
Remote guarding
Live operators watch your cameras after hours, issue audio warnings through on-site speakers, and coordinate a police response while an incident is still developing. See remote guarding in Phoenix.
Fire protection
Commercial fire alarm monitoring, inspection, and maintenance from the same team. See fire alarm monitoring in Phoenix and fire inspection.
Designed around how your business runs
What works for a retail store doesn't work for a warehouse, an office, or a restaurant. Before we recommend anything, we walk your property and look at:
- Entry points, including roll-up doors, rear service doors, and roof access
- Operating hours, shift changes, and who needs access when
- Building layout, parking areas, and blind spots
- Where your inventory, cash, equipment, and records are kept
- Whether you have one location or several
From there we design a system that fits your space and budget, whether that means perimeter alarms for the whole building, access control for employee-only areas, or cameras at every door. If you already have equipment, we tell you what can stay and what needs upgrading.
Run your security from your phone

The business app puts your whole system in one place:
- Arm and disarm, and see who did it and when
- Get alerts when the business opens unexpectedly or closes late
- View live and recorded video from every camera
- Lock and unlock doors and grant temporary access to contractors or vendors
- Adjust thermostats and lights after hours
For owners with more than one location, every site shows up in the same app.
Phoenix alarm permits and false alarm fees
The City of Phoenix requires a permit for alarm systems, monitored or not. The permit application fee is $17 per control panel. After the first false alarm in a 365-day period, the city can assess $96 for each false burglar alarm and $105 for each false fire alarm, and it can assess every activation on a system without a permit.
For a business, the usual causes are a new employee with the wrong code, a door left unsecured at closing, or a sensor that was never placed correctly. Proper installation, clear opening and closing procedures, and video verification keep false dispatches down. We help you file the permit as part of every installation.
One vendor for security and fire
Most Phoenix businesses deal with one company for the alarm, another for cameras, and a third for fire. Sting Alarm handles Integrated Security and Fire Protection, so you have one point of contact, one support number, and systems designed to work together. We hold Arizona ROC licenses CR-16 #359059 and CR-67 #357917 and have protected businesses since 2003.

4.9 stars from 1,166 Google reviews★★★★★ Sting Alarm has been great to work with. Had an issue that needed a field tech to come out. Mike was dispatched and worked on the issue - quickly identifying the issue and resolving it for me. Friendly and great service!
★★★★★ From the beginning, Sting Alarm has been so easy to work with. From Jeff in Sales, to scheduling, and finally when our tech came out in a Saturday for the installation, everything was seamless. Our tech Isaac was fantastic. He was neat and cleaned up after the installation, and took time with me and my husband to get us set up on the app. He was patient, walking us through all the features.… Read on Google
★★★★★ Mike in service is an amazing tech. This morning he came out to replace our faulty smoke detector. He was professional, efficient, really friendly and took the time to explain everything clearly. The whole process was quick and stress-free—highly recommend Mike and Sting Alarm
