This morning, you may have:
- Got your kids around
- Waited twenty minutes in the school drop-off line
- Spent an hour getting caught up from yesterday’s busy afternoon
- Got stuck in an hour-long video call with an important vendor
- Put out several small, but important fires before lunch
- Grabbed a bite to eat on the way out to an important client meeting
…and after all that, did you happen to glance into your facility’s security system? The security system protects your employees, safeguards your business, and ensures continued operation…
A successful business owner is likely to be BUSY. At EPS, we like to keep ourselves busy making the lives of business owners and operators easier by taking care of their business security needs from top to bottom. While you’re stuck in traffic on the way to a meeting, we’re monitoring your alarm system for intrusion and fire events. While you’re data-entering at light speed at the end of the day, our technicians are performing routine preventative maintenance on your surveillance cameras. Most importantly, when you finally make it home and are enjoying your well-deserved rest, we’re still standing by, ready for whatever threats lurk in the night.
Whether it’s a new system, expanded system, upgraded system, or even a system takeover, you can be confident in EPS as your security trusted advisor. We provide the lockdown security and peace of mind you simply can’t find elsewhere.
EPS doesn’t do “just” security systems
EPS Security’s professional experience isn’t limited to “just” commercial alarm systems. While keeping burglars at bay is a vital component of a total security solution, it’s only a part of a comprehensive business security plan. Other threats to your business exist, including:
- Fire, carbon monoxide, and environmental dangers
- Property damage
- Theft and robbery during business hours
- Employee theft
- “Sensitive area” access breaches by customers and unauthorised employees
A burglar alarm system can detect break-ins, but it can’t help out during a fire or emergency evacuation, and it certainly can’t identify which employee stole inventory and when. Any business interested in minimising the human and fiscal risks of operating should focus on comprehensive protection. This includes:
- Monitored intrusion alarm systems
- Code-compliant fire alarm systems
- Security cameras & secured footage
- Key card access control
A four-pronged approach is essential in protecting your business and its employees. Fire alarm systems are required by law and help notify occupants of threats to life, such as fire or carbon monoxide leaks. Burglar systems put your business on guard against after-hours miscreants, while video surveillance systems can help identify ill-intentioned visitors 24/7, both inside and outside your business. Keyless entry systems can help you manage who enters your building and when, allowing you to funnel customers into public areas and granting only authorised access to restricted areas.
Some companies are excellent at installing fire alarm systems. Others specialise in installing video surveillance systems. No Michigan company, however, is built to design, install, and service all four of the major security disciplines with as many technicians on the road state-wide as EPS Security. As the 18th largest security company in the country, EPS is able to field a massive team of trained technicians who are trained in-house to install world-class systems by leading manufacturers such as DMP®, Honeywell®, NOTIFIER®, Digital Watchdog®, AXIS®, PDK® and DSX®.
Instead of calling four different security companies for your business security needs, just make a single phone call to the EPS office and speak directly to your local security consultant.
EPS is your preferred security trusted advisor.
There are typically two types of alarm providers: big, national outfits and small, regional companies. Big companies can command reasonable prices and have fancy advertising, but often leave a lot to be desired regarding service. When it comes to installing a new system or servicing an existing device, customers are often left with long waiting periods, staggering service fees, or even the outsourcing of services to a third party. That may work for many business services… Security is not one of them.
EPS Security is a better fit to be your business security trusted advisor. For 70+ years, EPS has been a family-owned and locally operated company that prides itself on its connections to the communities we serve. However, we’re also the 18th largest security provider in the country, meaning we have the muscle to negotiate lower rates on equipment and pass that savings on to our customers. Being a “big” small business means having local offices across the state, including:
Our local offices ensure faster response times from security consultants and technicians. Additionally, as a larger local company, we train and maintain a sizable field of technicians to further minimise response times and to ensure that an EPS Security technician is only a phone call away from fixing your system.
EPS doesn’t install cookie-cutter systems.
Your business isn’t the same as the business down the street from you. Each business security application has different needs, layouts, and security vulnerabilities… some of which are unique even within your own industry. It doesn’t make sense, then, to design and install security systems in a “one-size-fits-all” fashion. A pre-packaged security solution doesn’t take the unique needs of your business security into consideration, so why trust it?
At EPS Security, we take a different approach. Your initial meeting with a dedicated EPS Security consultant identifies your specific protection needs, reviews security options, and then passes the information on to our system design team. Our expert security team will then design a unique solution to fit your layout and abide by applicable regulations and codes. Once you approve, our installation team is on the job, building and subsequently testing your system to ensure proper operation. And for continuing maintenance and support, our service technicians and technical support staff are available to ensure your system works as well on Day 1000 as it did on Day 1.
