Total Security installs and supports burglar alarms with 24/7 professional monitoring for Hermiston businesses, farms, warehouses, and homes. We design each system around your building, wire it ourselves, and service it from our office in Pendleton, about a half-hour away.
An Alarm That Tells Someone While It’s Happening
Cameras record what happened. A monitored alarm gets a person on it in the moment. When a door opens after hours, a window breaks, or motion is picked up in a closed shop, the signal goes to a monitoring center that is staffed around the clock. They follow the call list you set up with us, then dispatch help when it’s needed.
That matters in Hermiston, where a lot of property sits empty at night or spread across ground nobody can watch: equipment yards on the edge of town, storage buildings near the rail and truck routes, retail and restaurants along Highway 395 that close up after dark, and homes on acreage outside city limits. You can also arm, disarm, and check your system from your phone, so you know whether the last person out remembered to set it.
Alarm Systems for Hermiston Properties
- Farms and ag operations – Shops, chemical and seed storage, fuel areas, and outbuildings, with sensors on the doors that matter most. Outbuildings too far for a wire can be tied back over fiber or a wireless link.
- Food processing, cold storage, and warehouses – Perimeter doors, dock doors, and offices, with separate areas that can be armed on their own schedules so night crews and closed sections don’t conflict.
- Retail and restaurants – Entry and back-door contacts, glass-break sensors, motion coverage, and panic buttons at the counter.
- Dental, medical, and professional offices – After-hours intrusion protection for records rooms, server closets, and medication or supply storage.
- Homes in town and on acreage – Door, window, and motion sensors with phone control, plus coverage for a detached shop or garage.
What a Total Security Alarm Includes
Every system starts with a walk-through. We look at how people come and go, which doors are used after hours, where the valuables are, and what would actually cause you a problem. From there a system can include:
- Door and window contacts, motion detectors, and glass-break sensors
- Keypads and individual user codes, so you can see who armed or disarmed and when
- Panic and duress buttons for counters and reception areas
- Environmental sensors, such as temperature or water alerts, for spaces where a failure costs money
- 24/7 professional monitoring and app control for arming, disarming, and alerts
We take false alarms seriously. Careful sensor placement, sensible entry delays, and training for your staff go a long way, and our post on reducing false alarms covers the most common causes. For an overview of everything we install, see our main alarm systems page.
Tie It Together with Cameras and Access Control
Many Hermiston businesses combine an alarm with security cameras in Hermiston and access control, so an alarm event, a badge or code entry, and the matching video clip line up. Because we also handle low-voltage cabling, UniFi networking, and managed IT in Hermiston, the whole system runs on a network built for it, with one local team to call.

Hermiston Alarm System FAQ
What happens when my alarm goes off?
The monitoring center receives the signal, works through the contact list you set up with us, and dispatches police or other help when the situation calls for it. You also get an alert on your phone.
Can different parts of my building be armed separately?
Yes. We can set up separate areas so an office, a warehouse, and a shop each arm on their own. That’s common for operations running a night shift or seasonal crew in one section while the rest is closed.
Can you protect a shop or outbuilding away from the main building?
Yes. Depending on distance, we connect it with buried or aerial cable, fiber, or a wireless link, so everything reports through one system and one app.
We already have an alarm from another company. Can you take it over?
Often, yes. We’ll look at your panel and sensors, tell you what can be reused, and replace only what needs it.
How quickly can you get to Hermiston for service?
Hermiston is a half-hour from our office and part of our regular service area. Many settings and user codes can be changed remotely right away, and on-site visits are scheduled during business hours.
How much does an alarm system cost?
It depends on the size of the property, the number of doors and sensors, and the monitoring you choose. After a site walk we’ll give you a written quote. Contact us for a quote.
