How much does an AMCO burglar alarm cost?
Rather than one single number, AMCO's pricing is built from two parts - what you pay once, and what you pay monthly. Understanding the shape of that model makes it much easier to judge whether a quote is genuinely good value.

Two parts, working together
Every AMCO alarm price is made up of these two pieces - one paid once, one paid monthly.
1. Installation & equipment - a one-off cost
This covers the premium equipment - Texecom Premier and LiveTalk - plus professional installation. It's a higher upfront cost than some competitors charge, because you own the equipment outright rather than renting it.
Spread this cost with a payment plan2. Monitoring - a lower ongoing monthly fee
Once installed, you pay a monthly monitoring fee that AMCO keeps lower than many competitors' recurring costs - so even though the upfront cost can be higher, the long-term value works out better the longer you keep the system.
Compare current pricingThe upfront cost may look higher next to a rental-based competitor - but because you own the equipment and the monthly fee is kept low, the total cost over the life of the system usually works out better with AMCO.

What the model is designed to give you
Equipment you own
No leasing or rental contract - the alarm is yours once it's installed, with nothing left to hand back or keep paying off.
24/7 technical support included
Round-the-clock technical phone support is built into the monthly monitoring fee at no extra charge - it isn't a paid add-on.
Own vs rent trade-off
Renting equipment can look cheaper on day one, but usually costs more over the years and you never own the hardware. AMCO's model favours long-term value.
