Alarm Masters is headquartered right here in Spring. We design, install, monitor and inspect fire and security systems for local businesses and homes, with a team that is never far away.
When you call a security company, it helps to know where they actually are. Our headquarters sits at 26009 Budde Rd in Spring, so for businesses and families across the area, the people who design your system are local, not a call center several states away.
We are a family-owned company that has been protecting Texas since 1990. Over more than 35 years we have completed 3,000+ projects and now look after 5,000+ monitored clients across the greater Houston area. We hold Texas State License #B-06372 and Texas Fire Alarm License #ACR-1975, which matters a great deal when your fire alarm has to satisfy the county fire code and a fire marshal inspection.
Our motto is "See you tomorrow," and we back it with a 48-hour guaranteed turnaround on service. Whether you run an office near the I-45 corridor, a shop in Old Town Spring or a warehouse off FM 2920, you get one team for design, installation, monitoring, inspection and maintenance. That one-stop approach means fewer vendors to chase and one number to call: 281-933-3900.
Homeowners get the same care. If you live in Spring and want a monitored alarm, cameras or smart home controls, we will walk your property with you and recommend only what makes sense for your home and budget.
Commercial buildings in unincorporated Harris County need an addressable fire alarm system, and the plans have to be drawn to NFPA 72. We engineer code-compliant fire alarm systems and handle the custom system design from the first site walk.
Our licensed technicians perform fire alarm inspection and testing to NFPA 72 and keep your reports in order. Pair that with 24/7 monitoring, using cellular communicators in place of old alarm phone lines.
From retail storefronts to fenced yards, our video surveillance options include live video monitoring, AI video monitoring and video verification, built on brands like Axis, Hanwha and Eagle Eye.
Cards, fobs, mobile credentials and gate control through access control from Brivo, HID, Allegion and Salto, plus intercom and PA and emergency notification.
Monitored burglar alarms run from one app alongside your video and access control. Already have a system? Our service and repair team can take over and maintain it.
Monitored alarms that protect people, property and pets 24/7, fire and CO monitoring, doorbell to floodlight cameras, and smart locks, lights and thermostats. See our residential options.
Spring is a census-designated place rather than a city, mostly in Harris County, and Spring addresses also reach into southern Montgomery County. There is no Spring city hall or city fire marshal, so the rules for your fire alarm depend on which side of the county line you are on.
On the Harris County side, the Harris County Fire Code applies to unincorporated areas only and covers public buildings, commercial establishments and multifamily buildings with four or more units. The 2021 Harris County Fire Code took effect on January 1, 2025. The county engineering department administers it, and the Fire Marshal's Office performs the inspections.
For fire alarm permits, the county asks for plans stamped by a Texas-registered alarm planning superintendent, drawn to NFPA 72, with surge protection on fire alarm components. It does not recognize "like-for-like" panel swaps, so most changes that touch the panel program need review, a permit and an inspection. A permit is valid for six months. As a licensed fire alarm company, we prepare those submittals and coordinate the inspection so you are not left decoding the process.
Home alarm permits are separate. In unincorporated Harris County, residential fire and burglar alarm permits are handled by the Alarm Detail Division. If your property sits on the Montgomery County side, see our Montgomery County page for that county's fire code.
Emergency response comes from the Spring Fire Department, which covers 62 square miles of unincorporated northern Harris County from nine stations and holds an ISO Class 2 rating. In 2024 it logged 812 false alarms out of 6,588 incidents, which is a good reason to invest in well-designed systems and video verification.
Spring mixes historic storefronts, a major corporate campus, busy retail corridors and established neighborhoods, and each one needs something a little different from its security and fire systems.
If your building is in unincorporated Harris County, yes. The county requires plan review, a permit and an inspection for commercial fire alarm systems, with plans stamped by a Texas-registered alarm planning superintendent. We prepare the drawings and coordinate the inspection for you.
Harris County does not recognize like-for-like or one-for-one replacements for fire alarm systems. Work that goes beyond maintenance, including most panel replacements, has to be submitted, reviewed and permitted. We will tell you up front what your project needs.
Homes in unincorporated Harris County need a residential alarm permit, which is handled separately from commercial fire permits by the county's Alarm Detail Division. Once you have the permit number, we add it to your monitoring account.
It can. Spring addresses north of the county line fall under the Montgomery County Fire Code and its Fire Marshal's Office rather than Harris County. We check your property's jurisdiction during the site walk so your system is designed and permitted correctly.
The Spring Fire Department recorded 812 false alarms in 2024, so it is a real issue locally. Video verification lets operators see what tripped the alarm before calling for help, and regular service keeps detectors and sensors behaving. We can add verification to most existing systems.
Our headquarters is at 26009 Budde Rd C100 in Spring, TX 77380. Being local means we can schedule site walks easily, and every service call is backed by our 48-hour guaranteed turnaround.
