Smoke & Carbon Monoxide
Detector Installation
Hardwired, interconnected detector systems that meet Texas fire code — installed correctly the first time across North Texas homes and businesses.

What North Texas Homeowners Say
Smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and safety system installations across Collin County.
Hardwired smoke detectors installed throughout the new home — all interconnected so when one sounds, all sound. Gives complete peace of mind. Professional installation!
Carbon monoxide detectors installed near bedrooms and the garage. Code requirements explained clearly, everything installed properly. Great service and very knowledgeable!
Old battery detectors kept chirping at 3am. Upgraded to hardwired with battery backup — no more middle-of-the-night alarms. Excellent work, clean install.
Home inspection required additional detectors to meet code. ABR came out quickly, everything installed, passed inspection first try. Fast, professional, and affordable!
Combination smoke/CO detectors in every bedroom and hallway. All wiring and interconnection handled cleanly. Complete protection throughout the house now!
Heat detector in the garage, code-required. Very knowledgeable about detector types and installed it perfectly. Highly professional from start to finish.
Replaced all old detectors with new 10-year sealed battery models. Efficient, clean, and every detector tested before the job was done. Highly recommend!
Home addition needed detectors to pass inspection. ABR installed them quickly and the inspection passed on the first visit. Great communication and fair pricing!
Smart smoke detectors installed and connected to a phone app — setup and a full walkthrough included. Love the peace of mind when away from home!
Professional Installation Makes the Difference
Battery-powered detectors from a hardware store are a starting point — not a solution. Proper placement, wiring, and interconnection are what code and safety actually require.
Properly placed and interconnected detectors provide earliest possible warning — the difference between safe evacuation and catastrophe.
Texas fire code specifies detector placement, type, and interconnection requirements. A licensed electrician ensures everything is correct for inspections and insurance.
Hardwired detectors with battery backup never go offline during outages and don’t require regular battery replacements that get skipped.
Properly installed and documented safety systems increase property value, satisfy insurance requirements, and pass real estate inspections.
What’s Included
Every installation covers the full scope — no surprises, no add-ons discovered mid-job.
How It Works
A straightforward four-step process from initial assessment to final sign-off.
Home layout is evaluated, required detector locations are identified per Texas fire code, and the right detector type is recommended — ionization, photoelectric, or dual-sensor.
Interconnection wiring is run between detector locations so every unit communicates with the others. Proper routing keeps walls clean and code-compliant.
Detectors are mounted in optimal locations — bedrooms, hallways, living areas — wiring connected, and battery backups installed.
Each detector is tested individually and interconnection is verified. Operation is demonstrated and maintenance instructions provided before sign-off.
Straightforward Quotes, No Hidden Fees
Smoke detector installation typically ranges from $150 to $400+ per detector depending on type (hardwired vs. battery, interconnected vs. standalone), wiring requirements, and total quantity. Volume pricing is available for whole-home installations. Every quote is itemized with no surprises.
