What Should I Look For in Home Security?

1. A Reputable Dealer/Installer.

WEBCO has been in the Colorado area since August, 1984. We started out in the solar industry under the name of WEBCO Distributing Company, Inc. We turned to more affordable energy options for our customers in 1987 manufacturing windows, and distributing and installing door seals and an attic insulation called ‘radiant barrier shield’.

In 1994/1995 we delved into the security industry part-time, and due to the overwhelming response we received from our customers, we changed our name to WEBCO Distributing Company, Inc. dba WEBCO Security, Inc. and became a full-fledged security company, offering installation, sales, and service.

Through the years WEBCO has used only two central monitoring stations to monitor our customers' homes and businesses. When we decide on a central station it is with the customer in mind. We look at their customer service record, response time, customer complaints, and talk to other security companies that use their services.

WEBCO has been a member of the Denver/Boulder Better Business Bureau since 1994/1995, and we apply their business standards and practices into our daily routines. Check out our profile with the Better Business Bureau by clicking on the following link and typing in our company name.
