Frequently Asked Questions


  • How much does it cost to install my security system?

    No two security systems are the same, every family has different needs and requirements so it is very difficult to answer that question but the majority of residential systems that include a remote app, intrusion, fire, and carbon monoxide protection plus wireless communication will be in the range of $800-$1200.

  • How fast can I get my home security system in Columbus?

    Systems can be installed within 3-7 business days.

  • Are there payment plans?

    We invoice your work after it is completed and Citywide Solutions accepts all major credit cards.


  • What is the monitoring fee?

    Our typical system has a $35/month monitoring fee which can be paid on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual mode.


  • Can I control my security system with my smartphone?

    Yes, our security systems use smart technology, so they can be controlled with your smartphone using an app.


  • Does the alarm system work when there is no power?

    Your system has a built-in battery backup which keeps your system powered 8-12 hours in case of a power outage. Once power is restored the battery recharges and your system is powered by your household electricity. We also offer wireless home security options.


  • What if there is a false alarm?

    Our monitoring center will always call your residence or your emergency contact list to attempt to verify alarms and cancel if they are false alarms. There is no charge to you for this service.


  • What if I have an existing system I want to upgrade?

    System upgrades are a huge part of our business and we try to utilize working, existing equipment whenever possible; this also helps to reduce installation charges.


  • Can video doorbell cameras be included with my system?

    Yes, Citywide Solutions offers video doorbells and they are a very popular add-on item that addresses many outdoor worries.


  • What's better, glass break sensors or motion detectors?
