Connect an existing alarm. Switch monitoring providers. Install a new monitored system.
For warehouses, offices, shops and childcare centres across Wollongong, the Illawarra and Sydney. We check your alarm and communication hardware, explain any work required, and agree on authorised contacts and response instructions before connection.
When your business closes for the day, an alarm still needs a clear path to the right people. Back-to-base monitoring helps warehouse operators manage after-hours alarm events, gives offices a documented contact and escalation process, and supports shops when staff have left. For childcare centres, we assess monitoring for the premises outside operating hours alongside staff access and existing security equipment.
STAR-TEC connects compatible alarm systems to a professional monitoring service and configures the communication path, authorised contacts and escalation instructions. We test the connection and explain how events are handled under your agreed plan. If you need a new system or an upgrade first, explore our alarm system installation service.
For offices, shops, warehouses and childcare centres across Wollongong and the Illawarra, back-to-base alarm monitoring starts with a check of your existing equipment and how the property operates. Tell us your suburb, alarm make or model if known, and whether you need a new connection or an upgrade. We assess compatibility before recommending a monitoring arrangement.
An existing alarm may be suitable for monitoring. We check the panel, communication hardware and system condition, then explain any connection or upgrade work required.
We discuss opening hours, who arms and disarms the alarm, and which areas need monitoring. Warehouses may need after-hours keyholders, offices and shops need current staff contacts, and childcare centres need arrangements suited to operating hours and authorised staff.
Nominate authorised contacts who can respond when an alarm event is received. We document the contact order and agreed escalation instructions; the response depends on your event type and plan.
We test the connection and explain the agreed process to the people managing your alarm. Let us know when staff or operating arrangements change so contact and response details can be updated.
We will show any one-off connection or upgrade work separately from the ongoing monitoring charge, along with the agreed scope, response instructions, support arrangements and applicable terms.
When a connected alarm sends an event, the monitoring service follows your agreed response plan. This may include contacting nominated keyholders in the documented order and escalating the event according to the instructions for your premises. Any patrol attendance or other response service must be confirmed in your monitoring arrangement; the action taken depends on the event type and plan.
An existing alarm may be suitable for a new monitoring connection or a change of provider. Tell us your suburb, alarm make and model if known, and whether it is currently monitored. STAR-TEC checks the panel, communication hardware and system condition before confirming compatibility and explaining any work required. If you are switching providers, check your current agreement and cancellation requirements before arranging the change.
A phone notification alerts you, but you still need to notice it and decide what to do. With back-to-base monitoring, connected alarm events are received by a professional monitoring service that follows the agreed contact and escalation instructions for your premises. It can suit businesses where staff may be unavailable after hours. Patrol attendance or other response services must be confirmed separately in your arrangement.

Controlled door access helps manage authorised entry to the site.
Back-to-base monitoring provides a path for connected alarm events to be received outside business hours.
