About Callaway Security & Sound

Home Security Installation And Monitoring In Buford.

Callaway Security is a family-owned home security company with over 35 years of experience protecting Georgia homes. We bring that same depth of experience — and the same personal accountability — to every Buford property we secure.

Unlike national providers who ship a box and walk away or install and charge you an arm and a leg, we design fully custom home security systems built around your home's layout, entry points, and lifestyle. Every sensor, camera, and smart device is placed with purpose - not dropped in from a template.

We handle everything in-house: assessment, professional installation, and 24/7 UL-listed monitoring. No national call centers. Just a local team that answers the phone and shows up when scheduled.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from Buford-area homeowners

Straightforward answers to what we hear most from homeowners in Buford and the surrounding Gwinnett County area.

Has Callaway Security ever been sold or acquired by a national company? +
No. Callaway Security & Sound has been continuously owned and operated by the Callaway family since Robert Callaway founded the company in Alpharetta, Georgia in 1991. We have never been acquired by a national chain, private equity firm, or outside investor — and we have no plans to change that. Every technician who installs or services your system is a direct Callaway employee, not a subcontractor. When you call our office, you reach the same local team that has served the Atlanta metro area for over 30 years. In an industry where many familiar local names have been quietly bought out and replaced by national operations, Callaway remains one of the few independently owned security companies still serving Atlanta homeowners and businesses under original ownership.
How much does home security monitoring cost in Buford, GA? +
Professional home security monitoring in Buford starts at $22/month with Callaway Security — one of the lowest rates available from a UL-listed, locally operated provider. Our plans range from $22/month for basic 24/7 monitoring to $37.99/month for full remote access with HD video. All plans are month-to-month billed quarterly with no mandatory long-term contracts.
What is the best home security company serving Buford? +
Callaway Security has been serving the North Georgia and greater Atlanta area for over 35 years — one of the longest-established locally owned security companies in Georgia. We offer custom-designed systems, Georgia technicians (not subcontractors), UL-listed 24/7 monitoring, and no mandatory long-term contracts. For Buford homeowners who value personal accountability and genuine local expertise, Callaway is a standout choice.
Do I need a long-term contract for home security monitoring? +
No. Callaway Security does not require mandatory long-term contracts. All monitoring plans are available month-to-month starting at $22/month billed every quarter. Many national providers lock customers into 2–3 year agreements with significant cancellation penalties. With Callaway, you are never locked in.
Can I keep my existing alarm system and switch monitoring? +
In most cases, yes. Callaway Security can transfer monitoring of your existing alarm system to our UL-listed central station without replacing equipment. We will assess compatibility before making any changes and advise you upfront if any component needs updating or if any equipment turns out to be bad.
How fast does Callaway Security & Sound respond to an alarm? +
Our monitoring is handled by a UL-listed central station operating 24/7/365. When an alarm triggers, trained monitoring specialists follow enhanced call verification response procedures — contacting you and dispatching local Buford or Gwinnett County emergency services as needed.
Does professional home security monitoring lower homeowners insurance in Georgia? +
Yes, most Georgia homeowners insurance carriers offer premium discounts of 5–10% for professionally monitored systems. As a UL-certified monitoring company, Callaway Security can provide the monitoring certificate your insurer requires to apply for the discount. The exact reduction varies by carrier and policy — confirm with your agent what documentation they need.
What security cameras does Callaway Security & Sound install? +
Callaway installs HD indoor cameras, floodlight cameras, video doorbells, and outdoor security cameras. Our cameras are weatherproof cameras with night vision, video doorbells with two-way audio, and smart floodlight cameras with motion alerts. All cameras integrate with the Alarm.com platform for live viewing, motion clip storage, and smartphone push notifications. Camera coverage is included in our Video monitoring plan at $37.99/month for up to four cameras.
How long does a home security installation take in Buford? +
A standard installation typically takes 2–4 hours depending on system size and complexity. Wireless systems are faster than wired setups. Our technicians walk you through every component before leaving and confirm the system is fully operational and connected to our monitoring center.
Does Callaway Security & Sound serve the Lake Lanier and Sugar Hill area? +
Yes. We serve Buford, Sugar Hill, Flowery Branch, Gainesville, Braselton, Suwanee, Cumming, and surrounding communities in Gwinnett, Hall, and Forsyth Counties. Lakeside properties near Lake Lanier often have unique security considerations — larger lots, detached structures, boat docks — and our custom assessment approach addresses all of them. Call (770) 395-9692 to confirm service availability at your specific address.
Can Callaway Security & Sound integrate with my existing smart home system? +
Yes. Callaway Security systems run on the Alarm.com platform, which has a wide range of smart home devices - including smart locks, thermostats,, and garage door controllers.
