Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Our Greenwich Services

We are a local company — not a franchise. You own your equipment outright (no leasing), there are no long-term contracts, and your footage stays on a local NVR instead of a corporate cloud. Plus, our technician is 15 minutes away, not in another state.

Most residential alarm installations in Greenwich are completed within 1 business day. We offer same-week scheduling and can often accommodate urgent requests within 48 hours.

Greenwich requires an alarm permit for systems connected to police dispatch. We handle the permit application process as part of our installation service so you don't have to worry about paperwork.

Yes. We regularly upgrade older wired alarm panels to modern smart systems while reusing existing sensor wiring. This saves you money on new sensors while giving you smartphone control and video verification capabilities.

Yes. Unlike ADT, Vivint, and other national providers that require 3–5 year contracts, we sell and install your alarm system outright. You own the equipment from day one with zero monthly monitoring fees or cancellation penalties. This is one of the most common reasons Greenwich homeowners choose us over national chains.

Wired sensors are more reliable for permanent installs — no batteries to replace, no RF interference, and a more stable connection to the alarm panel. Wireless sensors are better for rentals, retrofits where running new wire isn't practical, or additions to existing systems. For most Greenwich homes, we recommend a hybrid approach: wired sensors on primary entry points and wireless for interior motion detectors or hard-to-reach areas.

Yes. Modern alarm systems integrate with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit, allowing you to arm or disarm with voice commands. We can also set up automation routines — for example, when you arm the alarm, smart locks automatically engage and lights turn off. If you have a Ring or Alexa-compatible system, your alarm can trigger smart lighting and send alerts through existing Echo devices.

Tell us your Greenwich neighborhood, whether the property already has an alarm and which entrances need protection. A panel model or photo helps during follow-up. You can request a quote before choosing a site-visit date.

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say About Us

5.0/5
Based on 8 verified installations across Westchester NY & Fairfield CT

“We had 8 cameras installed around our property and you cannot see a single wire. The team fished every cable through finished walls without touching our crown molding. Our insurance company gave us a discount the same month.”

Michael & Sarah T.

Greenwich, CT

Security

“After years paying ADT $45 a month for outdated equipment, Rolo set us up with a Hikvision NVR system. Better cameras, zero monthly fees, and I can check every angle from my phone. Should have switched years ago.”

David R.

Rye, NY

NVR

“The Wi-Fi in our 4,200 sq ft home was a nightmare — dead zones in every bedroom upstairs. Rolo ran Cat6A to three access points with zero visible cables. Now we get full signal in the basement, backyard, even the detached garage.”

Jennifer L.

Stamford, CT

Wi-Fi

“I run a small restaurant and needed cameras covering the kitchen, entrance, and parking lot. They designed the layout so every angle is covered — I can pull up any camera on my phone during off-hours. Installation was done in one day without disrupting business.”

Carlos M.

Port Chester, NY

Commercial

“Rolo installed Lutron lighting, motorized shades, and Sonos throughout our home. Everything works from one app. The hidden wiring is what sold us — our interior designer was impressed that nothing was visible.”

Angela & Tom W.

Scarsdale, NY

Smart

“We called on a Wednesday and they were at our door Friday morning for the consultation. Two weeks later, six 4K cameras and a full NVR system were running. The person detection actually works — no more alerts for every squirrel in the yard.”

Patricia G.

Darien, CT

Security

“We had Ring doorbells and a few Wi-Fi cameras that kept dropping offline. Rolo replaced everything with hardwired Hikvision cameras and a proper network backbone. Night and day difference — crystal clear 4K footage, instant alerts, and rock-solid reliability.”

Robert & Maria S.

White Plains, NY

Camera

“What impressed me most was the site mapping before they started. They walked every inch of the property, identified blind spots I never considered, and proposed camera positions that covered everything. Professional from start to finish.”
