Silent Guard: security and automation for homes and businesses in Kentucky

Silent Guard is a security and automation company based in Kentucky that has been operating since 1994 and has been part of the Sears family since 2000. The company presents itself as the state leader in integrated access control, video surveillance, security, and home automation, serving both residences and businesses. Its offering ranges from basic alarm systems to advanced automation solutions, with a focus on customization according to each client's needs and budget.

Security and control services

The company protects homes with state-of-the-art alarm solutions designed to maintain comfort and security continuously. For businesses, it offers systems adaptable to single or multiple locations, including franchises, restaurants, and universities. It also provides video surveillance, phone systems, and fire alarms, as reflected in its navigation menu.

Home and environmental automation

Silent Guard allows you to automate virtually any device in the home through touch controls, with the goal of simplifying environment management. The company also offers smart security systems that put control in the user's hands from anywhere at any time.

Virtual surveillance with artificial intelligence

The company has incorporated a virtual guard service that replaces traditional nighttime security guards. This system uses proprietary AI software to monitor all angles of a space simultaneously. When it detects an unusual situation, it sends an alert in seconds to its team, which can intervene before a crime is committed. The service issues personalized audio warnings to deter criminal activity, visually verifies perimeter intrusions to avoid false alarms, and provides access to high-definition recordings. It is designed for construction sites, car dealerships, warehouses, and other large-scale businesses.

Hiring process and support

The process begins with a free consultation to analyze the client's space, followed by a customized quote and subsequent installation. The company offers no-obligation consultations, options to fit different budgets, no long-term contracts, and a local support team available 24/7. Silent Guard guarantees professional installations and monitoring for all services provided.

With more than 170 years of combined experience, Silent Guard has served families and businesses in Kentucky for three decades. Its leadership team includes Dwight Sears as president and CEO, Barbara Sears as CFO, Taylor Sears as COO, and Kellie Sears as marketing manager, among other heads of technical, sales, and service areas. The company defines itself as local and family-owned.

Silent Guard has members in more than half of the state of Kentucky and parts of Tennessee. It operates from two locations in Kentucky, one in Somerset and one in Lexington, and maintains a referral program that rewards those who recommend its services with $50 in cash.
