General Info
Arrests are the best deterrent, period. Therefore that's what we focus on. Silent video verified systems don't let the bad guys know we're coming so they stick around for us to catch them. Our systems can even detect intruders on rooftops or outside, before they break in! We offer solutions, not gadgets.

Services/Products
WE CATCH BAD GUYS! We do this by focusing on what's important- getting useful information quickly and accurately to those who are responding to the intrusion with as few steps as possible. This proven technique has resulted in arrests and credible deterrence. Air conditioners, rooftops, construction sites, agricultural equipment, empty buildings, homes, offices, equipment storage areas... all are applications where we have succeeded in stopping bad guys. We design and install these systems as though we would be responding to them because we do respond to them in our coverage area. What other alarm company does THAT? Let's face it, these bad guys won't arrest themselves. We'll bring the handcuffs! Call us before something goes missing!

Everything about our business, from our logo to our signs and decals tells you (and more importantly the bad guys) that we're serious about protecting your property. Our logo features a Spartan helmet with the words "MOLON LABE", Greek for "Come and take them"- the defiant reply to the invading Persians' demand that the Spartans surrender their weapons. It's our way of telling the bad guys "come and get some, punk!". For the bad guys who are rusty on their Greek, all of our decals and signs warn them that there will be an armed response in English! Bring us your security problems. We'll offer you proven solutions!

The Shadow Knows Nothing.

I had written a reply some time ago, but it seems to have vanished. I'll write a new one now, with updated information. I do have an office now, but I only meet clients by appointment there. That's because clients want to secure their property, not my office. I go to them so I can see their property and design a system that meets their needs. I am a real alarm company, I hold a license issued by the state. You can verify that this license is valid and current at www.bsis.ca.gov. If you have trouble finding me there, please feel free to contact them by phone. My website is www.wecatchbadguys.com. As for being a joke, the 11 guys we're responsible for being arrested aren't laughing, but the property owners who no longer have theft and vandalism issues are! We're a veteran owned and operated business, quite literally a mom and pop. Does your alarm company respond to their own alarms? Was your system designed by someone who's cleared dark buildings at two in the morning with a flashlight and a gun? Is their name on the side of the squad car, much less on the business itself? Call me day or night. You'll get a live person, and it won't be an answering service. If you get my voice mail, I'm either in a cellular dead zone or too busy chasing bad guys to answer the phone. Take "The Shadow" and his review for what it's worth: an anonymous online review by someone who may also offer alarm systems.

My husband and I recently had the privilege of working with Art Dunn Alarm Company. He came highly recommended by a local security company. We had an older alarm system that had not been activated in many years. Art came in, checked the system out completely, and got it working; no problem. He never pressured us to buy an updated system.



Art was knowledgeable, polite, patient and professional at all times. He worked with us for many hours, at a time that was convenient for us (even on a weekend), thoroughly testing and explaining every aspect of our system. His thoroughness was impressive to say the least.



Our family feels safe and secure now that we have our alarm system activated and monitored, knowing that an armed agent will respond if our alarm goes off. We no longer need to worry about the slow response time of the under staffed and overworked MPD officers.



Art can offer you the same peace of mind that he has given us; and all this service for a very affordable price. I doubt that a larger company would be able to give such personalized service or match his fee. He had the best price of all the companies that we researched.



We would highly recommend Art Dunn for any of your home or business security needs.

Stay Away!!. This guy is a hack. Runs an "Alarm" company from his garage. All he is really doing is selling you a contract with a real alarm company. The "company" doesn't even have a web site and will not invite you to their office. That's because there isn't one. Don't be scammed by yet another fly by night "alarm operator" who only wants to get your upfront fees then disappear like so many other con artists. A Security company is someone you trust with your life right, why would you hire someone who starts off with dubious credibility? Play it safe, hire someone who's name you know and who has credibility in the industry and a proven track record. This guy is a joke, don't be the punchline.

I'm not sure who wrote this review, but they are obviously not a customer. I am licensed by the state www.bsis.ca.gov and invite anyone to verify that for themselves. I do not sell contracts to for other companies, but I am involved with two companies, both of which are family owned and hold different licensing (electrical and alarm company operator). I'm not a hack- three arrests from my client's properties since April of 2012. I have a facebook page and a youtube channel. Yes, I work from home because I really have no need for a store front- who goes to the store to buy a security system? I'm a small veteran owned family business, just as a good number of my large competitors started out years ago. I'd be happy to provide references from satisfied clients and guard companies I work with. Please take an anonymous post on the internet for what it's worth.
