Welcome
At Security Service Systems We provide you with the Latest State of the Art Home Security and Monitoring Systems
Why Westside Homeowners Choose Us Over a National Company
Family owned since 1940. Eighty-six years patrolling the same streets. The national alarm companies advertising in Los Angeles have not been here a fraction of that time.
Our own employees. Patrol officers and technicians work for us. Nothing is subcontracted, and the same technician returns to your home — someone who already knows your system.
Local dispatch, around the clock. When you call, you reach our dispatcher in Culver City. Not an answering service, not a call center in another state.
We respond ourselves. A monitored alarm elsewhere means a notification passed to police. Ours means our marked car, already working your neighborhood, is on the way.
We work with local law enforcement. Our officers coordinate with LAPD and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department when a situation calls for it.
Licensed and accountable. California PPO 16006 and ACO 6266. Every officer uniformed, every vehicle marked and GPS-tracked.

Hannah H.
Love the service provided by this company. Piece of mind when we travel, they are there to provide full inspection when our alarms faulty goes off.
Terje A.
I appreciated the additional piece of mind resulting from their patrolling the neighborhood
★★★★★
“I have been a customer of Security Service Systems for over 30 years, using both their alarm monitoring and patrol services, and they have been nothing but outstanding. They’re a local, family-owned business that truly cares about their customers. … I wanted to upgrade my camera system, and the owner … personally came out to do a walkthrough of my property. I assumed I would need three additional cameras, but instead of trying to sell me more equipment, he honestly told me it would be a waste of money. … They have their own in-house technicians. Nothing is outsourced to a third party, and it’s the same knowledgeable technicians who come out each time.”
— Ladera Heights subscriber, 30+ years
Questions We Get Asked
Do I need an alarm system to get patrol?
No. Patrol is a standalone service. Plenty of subscribers have no alarm, and plenty have one monitored by another company.
What areas do you cover?
Subscription routes run in Ladera Heights, Westchester & Kentwood, Del Rey, Venice Canals and Westside Village. We provide alarm response, guard services and commercial patrol more widely across the Westside.
What does it cost?
Neighborhood patrol starts around $20 a month depending on the route. Compare all routes and pricing.
What happens when I call?
You reach our own dispatcher, staffed 24 hours a day, who sends the closest marked unit straight to your address.
Is there a contract?
It depends on the neighborhood. Some routes are billed month to month; others have a minimum term. Your neighborhood page lists the billing terms available, and we will confirm them with you before you sign up.
