About Callaway Security & Sound

Home Security Installation and Monitoring in Smyrna, GA

Callaway Security is a family-owned home security company with over 35 years of experience protecting Georgia homes. Smyrna is one of metro Atlanta's most compelling residential markets — a city where median home values rose 15.1% in a single year, where 10-year property appreciation has averaged 9% annually, and where the combination of interstate access, The Battery Atlanta, the Silver Comet Trail, and an actively revitalizing downtown has created sustained demand from buyers who intend to stay.

It is also a city where NeighborhoodScout's FBI-sourced analysis places the crime rate considerably above the national average, with a 1 in 65 chance of becoming a victim of violent or property crime. These two facts exist together. Smyrna is one of the better-performing real estate investments in the Cobb County market, and it carries a property crime risk that sits squarely above average. Protecting the asset is not in conflict with appreciating it — it is the other part of the same decision.

We design security systems around your specific property. We install them with our own licensed technicians — no subcontractors. And we monitor through a 24/7 UL-listed central station that responds to every alarm with a trained operator and emergency dispatch — not an app that waits for you to look at your phone.

Why it matters

Thirty-five years of metro Atlanta experience, systems built for the home that is actually there, and monitoring that has maintained UL certification through independent audits year after year. When you call, you reach the same local team that has served this region since 1991 — not a national routing queue.

What we install

Complete Home Security — One Trusted Team

1
Burglar alarm systems
Custom intrusion detection built around your home's actual entry points and lot configuration — not a package preset. For Smyrna's mix of 1950s and 1960s brick ranches in Cheney Woods and Bennett Woods, late-1990s colonials near Market Village, newer townhomes near The Battery, and wooded estate homes in Vinings Estates, the right system design starts with the property in front of us. Older homes have the vulnerabilities of their era. Newer townhomes have the density and multi-elevation access of attached construction. Trail-adjacent properties have rear access that a standard install never touches. We design for what's actually there. All systems are wireless-capable for clean installs in finished interiors.
2
Smart home security
Full system control via the Alarm.com platform — arm and disarm from anywhere, live camera access, smart lock and thermostat management, and lighting automation from one app. For Smyrna's working households commuting across Cobb County and Atlanta, this is the layer that makes security functional in daily life: arm the system from the car before a commute, receive an alert if the side gate opens while the house is empty, confirm a live feed from your phone during a break. Remote access monitoring is not a feature you enable and forget. It is how you stay connected to a $500,000 asset when life takes you away from it.
3
HD indoor and outdoor cameras with night vision, weatherproof housings, and motion-triggered alerts. Accessible from any device. In Smyrna, where theft accounts for 99% of property crime, camera coverage is both the most effective deterrent and the most reliable source of documentation when something does happen. We position cameras for your specific property — covering trail-adjacent rear yards, alley or side access points, detached garage structures, and any approach angle that a front-door device doesn't reach. Clip storage provides police-ready documentation and supports insurance claims.
4
Fire & life safety monitoring
Integrated smoke detection, fire alarms, carbon monoxide monitoring, and medical panic capabilities — all connected to our UL-listed central station for immediate emergency dispatch. Fire monitoring is active 24/7 regardless of whether your intrusion alarm is armed. For Smyrna's older housing stock with original or near-original electrical systems, and for any household where someone may be home alone during the day, this is the protection layer that responds when you cannot make the call yourself.

Switching Providers is Easier Than You Think.

In a city where homes sell in 53 days on average, a significant share of Smyrna homeowners moved into their property with an existing security system already installed — often tied to a national provider the current owner never chose, monitored at rates they've never compared, or sitting entirely dormant behind a yard sign that signals protection without delivering it.

In most cases, Callaway Security can assess what is in place, confirm what is functional, and take over monitoring with no setup fee. If the equipment is performing correctly, you keep it. If something needs updating, you hear about it before we do anything.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from Smyrna-area homeowners

Straightforward answers to what we hear most from homeowners in Smyrna and the surrounding Western Cobb 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 Smyrna, GA? +
Professional home security monitoring in Smyrna 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 Smyrna? +
Callaway Security has been serving Smyrna and the Western Cobb 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 Smyrna 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 Smyrna or Western Cobb 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 Smyrna? +
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.
How Is Callaway Different From National Providers? +
We're local. Our office is in Alpharetta. The technician who installs your system is our employee, not a subcontractor. When you call, you reach our team — not a national call center. We've been doing this in this market for 35 years, which means we understand Smyrna's housing stock, its neighborhoods, and the security considerations specific to Western Cobb County. National providers offer standardized packages. We design systems for your specific property.
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.
