Security Cameras and Access Control Systems in Central Texas.
Centex Systems, LLC delivers professional security and low-voltage solutions to homes and businesses across Central Texas with licensed technicians, proven technology, and real local support you can count on
Central Texas's Trusted Security System Experts.
✔️ Security Without the Contract Trap.
Unlike providers that require long-term commitments and charge costly cancellation fees, Centex Systems offers flexible month-to-month monitoring with no lengthy contracts or hidden cancellation penalties. If you prefer additional savings, you can also choose a 3-year monitoring agreement and receive a discounted installation. Whichever option you choose, you’ll always know exactly what to expect.
✔️ Strongest 3-Year Warranty in the market.
Unlike most security companies that only offer a 1-year warranty or less, Centex Systems includes a full 3-Year Parts & Labor Warranty at no extra cost. While competitors often charge monthly fees for “extended coverage,” we stand behind every installation with real long-term protection and accountability.
✔️ Stop Relying on Wi-Fi for Security, Hardwired is Better.
Many security companies rely heavily on Wi-Fi cameras and wireless devices that can suffer from weak signals, low battery levels, interference, or disconnections. Centex Systems installs professionally hardwired security cameras whenever possible to provide faster performance, stronger stability, higher resolution, and more dependable protection when it matters most.
✔️ Emergency Backup Power Protection
Most camera systems stop recording the moment power is lost. That is why Centex Systems offers battery backup for camera system installation. Backup power can help keep your cameras recording during power outages or if criminals cut power to the building.
✔️ Criminals Look for Easy Targets, Don’t Be One.
Many low-cost or DIY alarm systems rely on basic wireless technology and internet-only communication that can be vulnerable to interference, outages, or inexpensive hacking devices purchased on Amazon. That is why Centex Systems offers advanced, encrypted, and jam-resistant technology, such as quality sensors and cellular alarm communication, to provide more secure and reliable protection against modern security threats.
✔️ We Treat Your Property Like Our Own, No Shortcuts.
We treat your home or business with respect throughout the installation process and clean up thoroughly before leaving the job site. Every installation also goes through a 180-point technician checklist to help ensure the system is installed properly, tested, and functioning correctly before completion.
✔️ State Licensed Technicians. Professionally Trained.
Centex Systems technicians are licensed through the Texas Department of Public Safety and complete 40+ hours of initial classroom instruction, hands-on field training, and background checks before working independently. Because a security system is only as good as the people installing it.
✔️ We Don’t Just Install It. We Show You How to Use It.
A security system only helps if you know how to use it. After installation, Centex technicians walk customers through their system step-by-step, including arming, disarming, mobile app features, alerts, and basic troubleshooting. On average, our technicians spend about 45 minutes after each installation training customers and answering questions. We do not leave until you are comfortable using your system.
