“Stormhammer's nightly patrol logs go straight into our board packet. Calls dropped, residents feel safer, and the GPS-verified tours give us something to hand the insurer. Best vendor decision the board has made in years.”
“Sprinkler went down on a Friday night. Stormhammer had a fire-watch officer on site within 90 minutes, fully NFPA compliant, with a written log for the fire marshal Monday morning.”
“Cut our overnight security spend almost in half and the residents actually see the patrol vehicle on the property now. The photo-verified arrivals are a game changer for our owners' reporting.”
Most Sacramento HOAs, property managers, and business owners think they're stuck. They're not. Nearly every security contract in California has an exit clause the sales rep hoped you'd never read — non-performance, missed SLA, expired PPO, insurance lapse, or auto-renew notice windows. We help you find it, document it, and switch without a coverage gap.
What's included
Our transition team has moved 40+ Sacramento-area properties off underperforming security vendors in the last two years. Below is exactly how we do it — for free, before you sign anything with us.
- FREE contract review — send us your current agreement, we flag every exit clause, notice window, and auto-renew trap in 24 hours
- Notice-letter templates — attorney-reviewed language for non-performance, insurance/PPO lapse, and standard 30-day termination
- 30-day parallel coverage — we patrol at $15/visit while your old vendor finishes their notice period, so residents never see a gap
- Post-order rebuild — new keys, gate codes, contact tree, and board-approved patrol map delivered week one
- Free GPS report audit — we compare your last 90 days of reports vs. what they actually did (most vendors log visits that never happened)
- COI + PPO transfer package — we send your insurer/lender proof of coverage the same day you sign
- No cancellation fee, no setup fee, no minimum term — month-to-month by default
- Direct dispatcher line for your board president or PM (no call-center runaround)

Frequently asked
Frequently asked questions
My contract has 12 months left — can I still switch?+
Almost always, yes. California civil contracts require the vendor to actually perform. If they've missed SLA visits, run guards without a valid BSIS badge, let insurance lapse, or failed to deliver reports, you have grounds for termination for cause with zero penalty. Send us the contract and the last 60 days of reports — we'll show you exactly which clauses they've breached.
What are the most common loopholes to get out of a security contract?+
The five we find most: (1) Auto-renew clauses require written notice 30–90 days before term end — most PMs miss this window, but the clause itself often violates CA Business & Professions Code §17600 if it wasn't clearly disclosed. (2) Non-performance / missed visits — every unlogged patrol is a breach. (3) Expired PPO license — check bsis.dca.ca.gov, an expired license voids the contract instantly. (4) Insurance lapse — request a current COI; if they can't produce it in 5 days, you can terminate. (5) Sub-contracting without notice — many big companies farm your account to a subcontractor, which usually violates the assignment clause.
Will there be a gap in coverage while we switch?+
No. We run parallel patrol during your notice period at $15 per GPS-stamped visit — no minimum, no setup fee. Your outgoing vendor finishes their term, we're already on-property learning the layout, and on day 31 we take full coverage without a single missed night.
How fast can you take over?+
New post orders written in 48 hours. First patrol on-property within 24 hours of signed agreement. Full COI + BSIS PPO #121830 sent to your lender/insurer the same day. Most properties transition inside one week.
Do you help HOAs get board approval for the switch?+
Yes. We deliver a board packet with side-by-side vendor comparison, GPS report samples, insurance certificates, references from 5+ nearby Sacramento HOAs, and a draft board motion. Free — even if you don't switch to us.
What if my current company threatens to sue for early termination?+
It's almost always a bluff. Enforcing an early-termination fee requires the vendor to prove full performance — the same performance records they usually can't produce. In two years and 40+ transitions, zero of our clients have paid an early-term fee. Our attorney will respond to any threat letter on your behalf at no charge.
Do you partner with local Sacramento agencies?+
Yes — we coordinate directly with Sacramento PD, Sac County Sheriff, Elk Grove PD, Roseville PD, Folsom PD, and West Sacramento PD dispatch for verified alarm calls. We also partner with local alarm companies (Baywatch Alarm Co., ADX Alarm Systems dealer network, and independent Sacramento-area installers) for verified-response contracts, and with Sacramento-area locksmiths and property-management firms for after-hours access.
What makes you different from the big national security companies?+
We're local, BSIS-licensed (PPO #121830), owner-answered, and every guard is W-2 (not 1099). Photos, GPS, and time-stamped reports are emailed to you every morning — not stored behind a portal login you have to fight for. No corporate call center. No hidden fuel surcharges. No per-report fees.
