We recently switch to AAA Alarms and Fire Protection to handle our quarterly and semi annual fire alarm testing and inspections as required by Rhode Island Fire alarm and life safety codes. We were with another company charging our facility 3 times more than AAA for half the level of service! Glad to have made the switch and it’s refreshing to deal with a local RI based family owned business once again! AAA handles all the fire alarm testing, submits the quarterly inspection reports to the local fire department, tests all the smoke detectors, pull stations, and horn strobes. Highly recommend AAA ! We additionally hired AAA Alarms to upgrade our video camera system to a new high definition system. We had old black and white cameras that had terrible picture quality. Now with have low light level color, with 1080p High Def Color, remote viewing on our smartphones, and 24/7 recording, that is easy to search to find incidents because it only records when cameras "see" motion. Great systems together with our business burglar alarm, make for a comprehensive package that protects our facility 24/7 for a cost less than we had been paying for obsolete equipment.
We have an older computerized card access system that locks and unlocks certain office doors in the morning and end of work day. It was installed a long time ago by a company no longer in business. We heard about AAA Alarms as being a local company here in RI that services and installs these types of card access systems for business security. These folks really know electronic alarms and security systems. They got our old system up and running temporarily, and recommended a system upgrade path for our older system that was very cost effective, as AAA Alarms was able to use much of our existing equipment. We have since upgraded and can't say enough good things about the system and AAA Alarms for their high level of service. Our door locks, card readers and access control software are now all new and work flawlessly! If you need an Access Control System, i would definately recommend you call AAA Alarms and Fire Protection.
We received a letter to install a local fire alarm system for our four unit and five unit apartment buildings. The city of providence letter stated we were required by the Rhode Island Fire Safety Act to install a system consisting of smoke detectors, pull stations and horn strobes along with a centralized alarm panel. We had been getting very high prices from Alarm Companies here in RI complaining how difficult the installation was due to all wiring needing to be piped in conduit or raceway. In contacting AAA Alarms and Fire Protection in West Warwick, they advised me they could install a wireless system that would meet code and be much more cost effective, and look better as you would not see pipe or wires. I was very happy with the price, the installation, and the on going fire alarm testing that AAA Alarms does for me and give them a thumbs up on Knowing RI Fire alarm requirements and saving us money.
I recently had AAA out to my multi-site facility to re-vamp my outdated access control system. Their sales rep was able to help me with the transition from my old system to their new Sielox system with ease! They were able to create a network system for me with remote web access from any place in the world! I am able to make changes (add/delete employees) immediately from anywhere I am. I was extremely pleased with the low upfront cost and the many service options available to me. From the first point of contact with the sales team to the installation and everything in between, AAA was excellent to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a new card access system!
Talk about complete SECURITY! AAA Alarms installs total security solutions that now only gave us a lock down system for our doors, but installed a total glass protection system that resists bullets and breakins! Finally true affordable piece of mind for our soft target school. Securing the entry vestibule with bullet resistance, man trapping our entryway with electronic locks and allowing teachers and school administrators and students through the main entrance using id badge cards and card readers, we finally feel safe!
My insurance company, Jewelers Mutual, recommended that I contact AAA Alarms as they meet the standards of high security line secure systems required by The Jewelery industry, manufacturers, retailers, etc. We have a large scale jewelry production facility in Attleboro, Ma, with gold and silver inventories that require vault protection and alarm certification from Underwriters Laboratories (UL). We had been with a large National provider ADT, (now Tyco) for many years and have watched the service degrade to the point of unacceptable. We decided to reach out to AAA Alarms and Fire Protection to have them access our present system and possible upgrades in accordance with UL standards. As it turns out, UL has a whole set of standards for alarm systems ranging from AA BB CC with varying extent levels of protection ranging from Level 1 (which is the highest used for 6 sided protection of a vault or safe), down to a level 4 which only requires moderate coverage such as partial motion detection and partial opening protection. Level 2 stockroom, is what we needed for our inventory of both raw and finished goods. This is a standard from UL that requires "4 step" motion detection. That means an intruder must be detected by the motion detection system within taking 4 steps EVERYWHERE in the area "certified" by AAA Alarms. AAA is authorized by UL to issue certificates that certify our system meets these specific standards, and it delineates on our certificate, exactly what we have for level of protection. This is how the insurance industry can verify it is a "good" alarm system and one that a jewelry facility needs given the high dollar value of gold silver etc. We also have a walk in modular vault, that is UL certified as "vault complete" level 1. This means that it has protection on all 6 sides. Even if someone tried to burrow up through the floor, would the AAA Alarm react. AAA meets the level 1 specification for our vault by using a sound system that detects any blows or drilling to the walls ceiling or floor of the vault. Additional sensors such as a heat sensor is installed on the vault door to protect against a blow torch or cutting tool, which would generate heat to trip the detector, and finally a door sensor to make certain the door is closed prior to arming. UL does not recognize motion sensors as valid protection devices in a vault or safe, as they are easily compromised by blocking them (inside job). Our premise is certified by AAA and UL as level 3 protection. This standard requires every door or window to have a sensor installed, and additionally, the longest dimension of the room needs volumetric protection (motion), a long with a few other details. AAA's experienced team of sales, installation and service is the one to call upon if you need a UL certified alarm as they know these systems!
