At Security Alarm Corporation, we rely on Qolsys because the technology consistently performs the way it should. We have standardized on the Qolsys IQ 4 Hub panel with PowerG for nearly every wireless alarm system we install. The platform is intuitive for users, reliable in the field, and integrates smoothly with Alarm.com for remote control, monitoring, and automation.
For our team, Qolsys and Alarm.com work together as a complete system. Every alarm platform we deploy runs on Alarm.com, and Qolsys provides the most reliable and flexible panel to support it. Below are the key reasons we continue to choose Qolsys for our installations.
Qolsys also works well with hybrid installations. When we deploy DSC Neo hardwired systems, we can still use PowerG devices to expand coverage and maintain consistency across different environments.
PowerG is the wireless technology that makes Qolsys systems both flexible and dependable. With long range encrypted communication, PowerG devices deliver the same performance expected from hardwired equipment without the need to run wire.
PowerG supports a wide range of devices including motion sensors, door and window contacts, glass break detectors, smoke and carbon monoxide sensors, flood sensors, and more. Installation is fast, performance is stable, and the system remains reliable across residential and commercial environments.
Whether using Qolsys branded hardware such as the IQ 4 Hub panel and PowerG sensors, or integrated devices like Alarm.com cameras and Yale smart locks, Qolsys brings everything together within one system. Below are some of the products we regularly install as part of our Qolsys based solutions.
The IQ 4 Hub serves as the core of our wireless alarm systems. It includes a 7 inch HD touchscreen, LTE, Wi Fi, and Bluetooth connectivity, Z Wave automation support, and full integration with Alarm.com. The panel is simple to operate, secure by design, and well suited for both residential and commercial installations.
Qolsys panels integrate directly with Alarm.com cameras, allowing users to view live video on the panel screen and through the Alarm.com app. Users can see who is at the door, check live camera feeds, or review motion triggered clips through a single interface.
PowerG based smart locks provide secure encrypted access control without requiring additional hubs or complex wiring. Users can manage access codes, schedules, and lock status directly from the Qolsys panel or the Alarm.com app. These locks are commonly used in homes, rental properties, and light commercial environments.
PowerG wireless devices include door contacts, motion detectors, glass break sensors, and life safety devices such as smoke detectors. These devices offer long range encrypted communication, fast installation, and reliable performance in locations where wiring is impractical or flexibility is required.
Empire Technologies, a Southern California based security integrator focused on large industrial projects, was tasked with securing a one million square foot distribution center in Arizona. Hardwiring a facility of this size would have increased costs significantly and delayed deployment.
