SINCE 1989
First Response Security has been providing a Higher Standard of physical and electronic security solutions for businesses and residences in the great northwest since 1989. Our reputation is built around our high level of service, along with our committed focus to exceed our client’s expectations. Our highly trained officers, professional technicians, and experienced dispatchers set the standard for other security companies to follow. WORKING TOGETHER FOR YOU
From our humble beginnings in 1989, First Response continues to grow and add additional offerings that allow us to improve and become more efficient. We are the only company in the Pacific Northwest able to combine our on-site, patrol, and alarm response services with a full range of electronic security through our in-house UL dispatch/monitoring center. This exclusive advantage allows First Response to provide a faster response time to a broad range of customers without using sub-contractors. BEST-IN-THE-BUSINESS TECHNOLOGY
We provide every officer with a 4G tablet which allows them to produce security reports while on-location. Each of our vehicles is equipped with GPS tracking, allowing us to verify routes and services performed. We created our own patrol & dispatch software which automatically sends our officer’s reports directly to our clients. No more waiting around for manually emailed reports! Additionally, this software has features that allow our dispatchers to work more efficiently, resulting in minutes off the response time! As a Resideo and Honeywell Authorized Dealer, we’re able to offer everything from home security systems to commercial fire systems. Whether you are looking for an extra layer of protection for your home or for your business, we can provide it. Additionally, our video monitoring service allows our operators to view live footage which elevates the response priority for both our officers and the local Police. Our technicians are certified and provided with monthly continued education to keep up with the ever-changing security industry technology. All technician reports are completed on a tablet which allows for efficiency in the field. This ensures our technicians can be where they need to be, when they need to be there. GIVING BACK

Before Your Family Heads Out Tomorrow Night… 🎃

Halloween is almost here! Before everyone heads out for trick-or-treating, take a few minutes to make sure your family is ready for a fun and safe night.

A few simple reminders:

Make sure costumes are easy to see and easy to move in.

Bring flashlights or glow sticks for added visibility.

Choose a planned route and make sure everyone knows it.

Stay together and use sidewalks and designated crossings whenever possible.

Take extra care around streets, parked cars, and driveways.

Halloween should be about costumes, candy, and having fun. A little preparation before heading out can help keep everyone focused on enjoying the night.

From all of us at First Response Security, have a safe and Happy Halloween! 👻

How Many Companies Handle Your Security?

Security works better when every piece works together. From installation to 24/7 monitoring to local response, First Response keeps your security connected. No handoffs between multiple providers, just one local team ready to respond.

We install. We monitor. We respond.

They Know Your Account. We Know Your Community.

Your home is local. We believe your security should be, too.

At First Response Security, your system is supported by our local, in-house Monitoring Center and our own local Security Officers who can respond when needed.

That means the people monitoring your alarm and the people responding to your property are part of the same local operation, not disconnected teams spread across different providers.
For us, being local means more than having an office nearby. It means knowing the communities we serve and having a team here when it matters.

Local monitoring. Local response. One First Response team.

Your Security Plan Shouldn’t Look the Same at 2 PM and 2 AM.

At 2 PM, your property may be full of employees, customers, deliveries, and activity.

At 2 AM, the property and the security risks look completely different.

So why would the security coverage stay the same?

Effective security should account for how a property operates. During business hours, that may mean managing access and maintaining visibility. After hours, the focus may shift to monitoring, patrol, detecting unusual activity, and having a response plan when something happens.

At First Response Security, we look at security as a connected operation not a one-size-fits-all schedule. Systems, monitoring, and response can work together to provide the right layers of coverage when your property needs them.

Because the question isn't simply, “Is my property protected?”

It's “Is it protected differently when the risks change?”

Security should work around your property not the other way around.

Halloween Changes the Routine. Does Your Security?

On Halloween, your home operates a little differently. The front door opens more often, walkways get busier, and family members may be coming and going.

Your security should adjust with the routine.

Before trick-or-treaters arrive:

🎃 Turn on porch and exterior lighting so entrances and walkways are easy to see.
🎃 Keep decorations, cords, and pumpkins clear of walkways and entrances.
🎃 Make sure side gates and other entrances are secured.
🎃 Keep pets safely away from the front door.
🎃 Check that decorations aren't blocking cameras or video doorbells.
🎃 Keep your alarm armed in areas of the home you aren't using, if your system allows.

Good home security isn't about changing your plans. It's about making sure your security works around how you're using your home.

A few simple adjustments can keep your normal security habits working even when the routine changes.

More activity. Same smart security habits.

Security From Every Angle

Your front door isn’t the only way into your home.

Side gates, garages, back doors and windows can all create gaps in your security. That’s why protecting your home takes more than focusing on a single-entry point.

At First Response Security, we look at the entire property and how each layer of security works together to create more complete coverage.

Security Done Right.

Are You Comparing Alarm Systems or Security?

A low monthly rate is easy to compare.

What’s harder to compare is everything behind it.

Who installs your system? Who services it when something goes wrong? Where is it monitored? And when an alarm requires someone at your property, who shows up?

Those questions matter because an alarm system isn’t just equipment on your wall and a monthly monitoring fee. It’s a chain of people, technology, and response and every link matters.
At First Response Security, those pieces work together through one local team. We install it. We monitor it. We respond.

So before choosing a security company based on the advertised price, ask a different question:
What am I getting for that price?

Look beyond the monthly rate. Start the conversation with First Response Security.

How Many Companies Does It Take to Protect One Property?

One company installs the alarm. Another monitors it. Someone else manages the cameras. A separate company handles patrol.

But what happens when those pieces need to work together? Who verifies the activity, coordinates the response, and who owns the outcome?

At First Response Security, we built our model differently. Our systems, monitoring, and response teams work together as one local, in-house security operation.

Fewer handoffs. Direct communication. Clear accountability. One team from detection through response.

We install. We monitor. We respond.

You Know Who Has a Key. Do You Know Who Has a Code?

Giving someone a code to your home takes seconds. Remembering to remove it months later is another story.

House cleaners, dog walkers, contractors, relatives, babysitters, over time, the list of people who have been given access can grow without homeowners realizing it.

But there’s a difference between giving access and managing access.

When your system allows it, unique user codes give you more control. You can provide access without sharing your own code, see who is using the system, and remove individual access when it’s no longer needed.

That’s how we think about home security at First Response. It’s not just about having the technology. It’s about making sure the technology is working for the way you live.

Look at your system today. Do you know exactly who still has access?

Patrol is more than driving through a neighborhood.

Our local security officers become familiar with the communities they patrol, keep an eye on common areas, identify concerns early, and are ready to respond when needed.

Visible presence. Local security officers. Real response.

That’s the First Response difference.
