Report
As with most technology, on rare occasion our panel experienced a malfunction. When I called, the receptionist quickly accessed my problem, and had a specialist call me back within 30 minutes. A technician was offered to come out same day. Our tech, Wesley Lee, was prompt (on the dot), professional, courteous, and even calmed our barking dog. He was able to reset our panel, and fix a troublesome sensor (that was knocked loose during our kitchen remodel). He was done in 22 mins... and the maintenance call was at no extra charge.. I highly recommend Dynamark Security Richmond for the outstanding

Easy to get hold of, quick response times, and super friendly. Sales Rep was friendly and knowledgeable, and the installer did an excellent and thorough job. I thankfully, haven't had an incident requiring police or fire assistance, but I'm confident my alarm system will work properly and they'll be there when I need them.

Great experience with James Hinton today, very knowledgeable and respectful in every way. We were a little concerned about the wires showing etc and he assured us that we would not see them. He explained everything before starting about our concerns and did a FANTASTIC job. We are super happy with our service and the job well done James! Merry Christmas Dynamark Security and thanks again for helping us to feel safe in our new home. Blessings, Troy and Kim

James and Jerry came over today and installed my alarm systems. The young men were great. The kindness, professionalism that they displayed was impressive. I was shown everything that I needed , to use the system. The picture on the panel was huge. That , I really like. I would recommend these guys to install your system to anyone, anywhere. Thank you.
