The locally owned and locally monitored alarm company, Ackerman Security Systems, has been selling Real Security - custom-designed security systems and a company-owned, local, state-of-the-art central monitoring station in the company's Atlanta headquarters since 1967.

"We have the most technologically advanced U.L Certified Central Monitoring Station in Atlanta that monitors exclusively for our clients... " says Bruce Turry, the company's president.

"Thousands are switching to Ackerman Security Systems," Turry says. We are experiencing a huge demand for our services, for both home and businesses. People want Real Security, and monitoring is the most important part of any security system. In addition, the system itself should be designed to protect a particular home or business. A generic package system may provide only a false sense of security."
