The answer to this question is a resounding yes! Your security system must be registered with your county, or you are at risk for a serious fine. Why is this? Many counties in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC, have False Alarm Reduction Units. These units are tasked with keeping track of security systems and allowing units to respond to actual alarms more accurately. That’s why you need to register your unit.
At Trinity, we want to make it as easy as possible for you to register your unit and operate it in line with the law, so we have created this guide for you.
How to Register Your Security System
Here at Trinity, we want to help you avoid undue risk, by offering high-quality security systems and monitoring, and by ensuring you know how to register the system you purchase. When possible, we will register the unit for you, if it is allowed in your county. If not, we want to help you understand the rules and regulations that apply to you, and therefore have collected some links to make it easier for you to register your security system on your own.
Whether you do the registration or we tackle the job for you, the most important thing is that you do it. Failing to do so puts you at risk for a fine, and that’s not something we want to see happen. Use the resources below to determine if you can have us register your system, or where you need to register it if we can’t do it for you.
