Professional Home Security Installations Across Charlotte

Our expert team of certified and trusted installers can fit your CPI home security system for free—wherever you are in Charlotte.

CPI Security was founded in the heart of Charlotte. And we’re proud to provide a friendly, local service—inspired by our love for the city and its people. From Dilworth and Plaza Midwood, to NoDa and Ballantyne, we’ve been serving and protecting local communities here for more than three decades. We cover all of Charlotte, but some main areas include:

Uptown Charlotte

Located at the heart of the city center, Uptown Charlotte is known for its business hub and bustling streets. From characterful Victorian townhomes to modern high-rise apartments, CPI can help keep your home safe—no matter how far off the ground it is.

Dilworth

With roots in the 19th century, this family-friendly area was Charlotte’s very first suburb. It’s home to a diverse range of properties, from bungalows to historic buildings. And it offers plenty of stores and restaurants, just a stone’s throw from Uptown. Whatever your property type, get peace of mind with the right home security system in Charlotte.

Plaza Midwood

Known for its art and culture, Plaza Midwood is a hotspot for open-mic nights and eye-catching murals. It also has a warm suburban feel, with homes ranging from characterful townhomes to tasteful new-builds. There’s plenty of outdoor space, where technology like security cameras can come into its own.

Myers Park

This picturesque neighborhood boasts oak-lined streets, beautiful houses, and independent stores. A 10-minute drive from the center of Charlotte, it’s popular with families and professionals alike. Our security systems can help protect your family home.

Cotswold

Four miles from Uptown, Cotswold offers the best of both worlds. On the one hand, it’s just a short drive from central Charlotte. On the other, it’s got an identity all of its own, with the Cotswold Village mall at its heart. Offering Tudor and ranch-style homes, this suburb is the perfect place for an indoor/outdoor security system.

Ballantyne

This affluent area is known for its quiet neighborhoods, roomy backyards and brick estates. It’s also home to the luxurious Ballantyne Hotel. Nestled close to I-485, it gives couples and families the space to put down roots. Safeguard your investment with a best-in-class home security system.

What Our Home Security System Customers Say

Trustpilot 5 Star Review | CPI Security

The Best Security Company

“We are so happy that we switched to CPI. The equipment that they installed in our home is excellent. If we forget to turn on our security alarm at night, CPI will notify us. The monthly cost is very reasonable and I just wish that we had switched to CPI much sooner. I would highly recommend CPI to everyone that wants the best.”

– Deborah M., Trustpilot

How do I pay for my CPI Security home security package?

You can pay for your home security package equipment in two ways, up-front with a credit card or in installments through CPI Smart Pay. CPI Smart Pay allows customers with approved credit to pay for their equipment in installments over 39 or 60 months at 0% APR. A monthly monitoring agreement is required for the length of the installment term.

Monthly monitoring fees vary depending on the equipment you have installed at your home or business. Monthly monitoring can be paid for through ACH, which allows customers to make payments via direct debit from their bank account.

What other cities than Charlotte does CPI Security cover?

As well as being in Charlotte, CPI Security also covers the whole of North Carolina, from the mountains to the shoreline! We proudly protect homes throughout the southeast including all of South Carolina and portions of Tennessee and Georgia, too. So, if you move across state or within our beautiful region, we can work with you on taking your home security system with you to your new home.

What happens on my CPI Security installation day?

On the day you’ve chosen, the technician team will arrive knowing exactly what you’ve purchased. They’ll install the system, explain how to operate it, and discuss options for customization based on what they learn about your home that day. They will not leave until they are sure you’re comfortable operating the equipment and completely satisfied with the installation.
