Alarm.com, GE Partner to Provide Mobile Buildings With Wireless Security

MCLEAN, Va. and WAYNE, Pa.

Alarm.com, a provider of wireless interactive security and monitoring system technology, announces it has entered into a marketing alliance with General Electric’s (GE) Modular Space business, a supplier of mobile and modular buildings and trailers.

Under the partnership, GE’s Modular Space will offer its customers Alarm.com’s wireless security systems, enabling them to protect their trailers without having a phone line installed at the location, as well as to benefit from Alarm.com’s enhanced monitoring and control features, the company says.

The Alarm.com wireless module is compatible only with GE Security equipment.

“Because Alarm.com systems require neither a phone line nor a long-term service contract, they are a perfect solution for securing temporary spaces,” says said Keith Shipp, senior vice president of Sales for GE’s Modular Space business. “And Alarm.com’s Web interface and customizable E-mail and text message notifications make it easy for our customers to manage and monitor all types of activity at their jobsite—from anywhere.”

The Alarm.com solution gives GE’s Modular Space customers a 100-percent wireless, easy-to-use security and business management tool for their temporary space needs, Shipp says. Through a single Web interface, they can view current system status, access a history of activity at the property, arm and disarm the system remotely, plus automate their lights.

In addition to offering a central station monitoring option for alarm response, Alarm.com also lets customers receive automated alerts for any type of nonalarm activity, including a power failure or an inventory closet door being opened at unexpected hours. And for customers who wish to leverage the Alarm.com technology to protect their more permanent structures and assets, GE Modular and Alarm.com are creating an offering that is installed and serviced by participating Alarm.com security dealers, the two companies announced.
