Home Security in St. Paul, Custom Designed for Your Home

Nighthawk Security was founded in Minnesota in 2003 and has operated for over 20 years, protecting homes in St. Paul and across the Twin Cities. We hold Minnesota Technology System Contractor license TS000435. We discuss your home’s layout, your family’s routines, your budget, and any health or mobility concerns, then custom design a security system with the technologies best suited for your home.

Built for St. Paul Living

In St. Paul, we start with your layout and how your household moves through it, then place sensors to match. If a family member lives alone or needs a way to call for help, we add a PERS device to the plan. Every standard installation includes battery backup, and the Total Connect 2.0 app lets you arm, disarm, and check on your system from anywhere.

What Goes Into a St. Paul Home System

Door and window contacts

Door and window contacts alert you the moment an entry point opens while your system is armed.

Wireless motion sensor for home security

Motion sensors

Motion sensors watch the rooms inside, a second layer if someone gets past a door or window.

Glass break sensor

Glassbreak sensors

Glassbreak sensors listen for a breaking window, so you hear about it before anyone steps inside.

Fire, smoke and carbon monoxide detector

Smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide detection

Smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide detection reports to the same monitoring center as your burglar alarm, so a hazard gets a response when no one is home.

First Alert video doorbell

Cameras and video doorbells

Cameras and video doorbells let you see visitors and review recorded footage from your phone.

Personal medical alert transmitter

PERS (Personal Emergency Response System)

PERS (Personal Emergency Response System) lets a parent, grandparent, or anyone living alone call for help with one button.

Proactive Visual Monitoring

Proactive Visual Monitoring is an optional deterrent layer. Our central station watches live video and speaks to people on your property through installed hardware. Learn about Proactive Visual Monitoring →

We help you decide which of these fits your household, from a first alarm to a PERS device for a family member.

24/7 Monitoring from a UL Listed Central Station

Your system reports to a UL Listed, TMA Five Diamond certified monitoring center. Redundant centers in Florida, New Jersey, and California keep your home monitored if one location goes offline. A trained operator reviews each alert and tries to reach you before sending emergency services.
