Home Security Systems
in Truckee, CA

Truckee is one of the Sierra Nevada's most desirable mountain communities — home to full-time residents, ski-season regulars, and vacation property owners from the Bay Area. It's also a community where properties routinely sit vacant for weeks or months.

Scott has been serving the Truckee and Lake Tahoe area since 2006 and understands the specific security needs of mountain properties — from remote monitoring for absent owners to pipe-freeze protection during the winter months you're not there.

• Remote monitoring with live smartphone camera access
• Low-temperature sensors — alerts if your heating fails and pipes are at risk
• 24/7 Brinks monitoring — dispatches Nevada County Sheriff immediately
• Smart locks — manage access remotely for guests and contractors
• Cellular backup — stays connected even if your internet goes down

Truckee and the Tahoe/Truckee area see elevated property crime during shoulder seasons — vehicle break-ins at trailheads and resort parking, and residential burglaries when neighbourhoods thin out. High-value second homes in the area make it an attractive target for opportunistic thieves.

A Truckee property has specific risks that off-the-shelf alarm packages don't address: frozen pipes during a cold snap, break-ins while you're in San Francisco for two months, a contractor who didn't lock up, a rental guest who gave access to the wrong person.

Scott builds systems around these real scenarios — visiting every Truckee property personally before recommending anything.

• Pipe freeze monitoring — temperature sensors alert before pipes burst
• Exterior camera coverage — driveway and entry point detection
• Smart lock integration — full remote access management
• Airbnb-friendly setup — guest codes, exterior-only cameras
• Wildfire smoke detection — integrated sensors for high-risk zones
