Commercial Security in Minneapolis, Custom Designed for Your Business

Nighthawk Security was founded in Minnesota in 2003 and has operated for over 20 years, serving businesses in Minneapolis and across the Twin Cities. We hold Minnesota Technology System Contractor license TS000435. We discuss your company’s needs, your property, and your budget, then custom design the security solution for you, rather than fitting your business into a generic package.

A Plan Built Around Your Minneapolis Business

Retail, office, and restaurant owners face different risks. A store’s biggest exposure is often after-hours loss. An office’s biggest exposure might be a side entrance no one watches after closing. A restaurant’s might be a back door used for deliveries. We start by learning your property, your hours, and what you need to protect, then design your plan from the systems below.

The Systems We Build From

Indoor dome security camera for intrusion detection

Intrusion detection

Intrusion detection covers doors, windows, and interior motion, the baseline layer for any commercial account.

Red fire alarm monitoring keypad

Commercial fire monitoring

Commercial fire monitoring reports to the same central station watching your intrusion alarm, so a fire hazard gets a response after hours.

Proximity card reader and keypad for commercial access control

Access control

Access control replaces or supplements traditional keys with keycard, fob, or code-based entry, so you manage who enters which parts of your building and when. Access control is a standalone, cloud-monitored service.

Outdoor bullet video surveillance camera

Video surveillance

Video surveillance gives you visual verification alongside sensor-based detection, with footage you review remotely. We install Avycon commercial cameras.

Proactive Visual Monitoring

Proactive Visual Monitoring adds a deterrent layer. Our central station watches the video and speaks to people on your property through installed hardware. Learn about Proactive Visual Monitoring →

Personal medical alert transmitter

Lone-worker and duress alarms

Lone-worker and duress alarms give employees who work alone, or who face a threat, a way to call for help immediately.

We help you decide which of these your Minneapolis business needs, and we plan device placement around your building.

Local Response, Backed by Redundant Monitoring

When a sensor at your business triggers, a trained operator reviews the alert and works through your account’s call list before contacting local law enforcement or fire services directly. Your accounts report to a UL Listed, TMA Five Diamond certified central station, with redundant centers in Florida, New Jersey, and California.
