Alarm takeovers in Thornhill
Most established Thornhill homes already have an alarm panel, often installed years ago by a previous owner or a large provider. If it still works, Knightwatch can usually take it over instead of replacing it.
Why Thornhill homeowners switch
- Your provider changed. Bell’s monitoring business moved to a.p.i. Alarm and ADT Canada is now part of TELUS. Many customers take the chance to move to a local, family-owned company. See switching from Bell or API and switching from TELUS or ADT.
- You moved into a home with an existing alarm. Resale homes in Thornhill Woods, Bayview Glen and Old Thornhill often have a working DSC system that only needs new codes and monitoring.
- You want a company that answers. Knightwatch’s own technicians install and service every system.
Closing the gaps in older systems
Older Thornhill systems were often installed when the home was built and never updated. During the free evaluation we test every zone and look for what’s missing: the garage-to-house door, walk-out basements, large rear windows that need glass-break detection, and a phone-line communicator that should be replaced with cellular. If the panel is dated, see upgrading an older DSC alarm.
After the switch
Your system reports to 24/7 monitoring with unlimited guard dispatch and no annual contract, and you can add AI cameras for the driveway and backyard at the same visit. Full details: home alarm takeovers.
