Michigan Security Systems: The Commercial Security Company Serving Michigan Since 2000

When a Michigan business needs to protect its people, property, and operations, the name of the company doing the work should mean something. Michigan Security Systems has been that name since 2000 — a commercial security company that designs, installs, and services security systems for Michigan businesses using our own licensed technicians. From security cameras and access control to alarm systems, network services, and audio and video, we install and service the full range of commercial security systems Michigan businesses rely on. This is who we are, what we do, and — just as importantly — how any business owner should go about choosing a Michigan security company they can trust with their building.

Who we are: a commercial security integrator, not a reseller

Michigan Security Systems is a commercial-only security integrator headquartered in Mount Clemens, Michigan, with offices in Wixom and Milford. We have served Michigan businesses — along with clients in Ohio and Indiana — since 2000. That longevity is not a tagline; it is the difference between a company that will be here to service your system in five years and one that may not.

We are an integrator, which means we do not just sell you a box. We engineer a complete commercial security system around the building it protects, install it with our own team, and stand behind it with a warranty backed by the same people who did the work. Every installation is performed by licensed Michigan technicians. We use no subcontractors, ever — the crew that shows up is our crew.

Our commercial security services in Michigan

As a full-service commercial security systems provider, Michigan Security Systems designs, installs, and services the complete low-voltage stack a business needs. We are a single Michigan company for security cameras, access control, alarm systems, network services, and audio and video — not a patchwork of vendors. Here is what we do:

Commercial security cameras & video surveillance

Our core service. We install commercial security cameras and video surveillance systems — IP and AI-capable cameras from manufacturers like Axis, Hanwha, and Digital Watchdog — engineered for real coverage of your building, parking areas, and perimeter. From a handful of cameras to large multi-building CCTV deployments, we handle design, installation, and ongoing commercial security camera service across Michigan. We also provide security camera repair and system upgrades when an older system needs new life.

Access control systems

We install and manage commercial access control — card, fob, keypad, and mobile-credential systems for your doors, gates, and restricted areas. Whether you want a simple keyless entry or cloud-based access control you manage from an app across multiple sites, we install proven access control systems from PDK, Brivo, and CDVI, with full entry and exit reporting.

Alarm systems & monitoring

Our commercial alarm systems cover intrusion detection, door and motion sensors, and monitored burglar alarms that alert you and the authorities the moment something is wrong. We install and service business alarm systems and can integrate them with your cameras and access control so a triggered alarm pulls up the right video automatically.

Network services & structured cabling

Security only works on a solid foundation. We provide commercial network services and structured cabling — the Cat6/Cat6A wiring, switches, and business networks that carry your cameras, access control, and data reliably. From network cabling and PoE infrastructure to wireless bridges linking multiple buildings, we build the low-voltage backbone the rest of your systems depend on.

Audio, video & intercom

We install commercial audio and video systems, paging and intercom, and video intercom entry — from Bogen paging and Aiphone intercoms to ButterflyMX video entry for multi-tenant properties. If it routes sound, video, or entry through your building, our audio and video team can design and install it.

Because we install and service all of it under one roof — cameras, access control, alarms, networks, and audio/video — every system is engineered to work together, and there is one local Michigan number to call when you need a change or a repair. That is the advantage of hiring a single, established commercial security integrator instead of stitching together separate companies for each service.

Who we protect

Over more than two decades, Michigan Security Systems has secured a wide range of commercial and public-sector clients across the state — manufacturers and auto suppliers, warehouses and distribution sites, offices, healthcare and municipal facilities, houses of worship, and trade organizations. Our work spans Macomb, Oakland, and Wayne counties and reaches well beyond, from Metro Detroit out to communities across Michigan. When a Michigan business searches for a security systems company that understands commercial buildings — not just houses — that focus is exactly what sets an integrator like us apart.

Where we work: our Michigan service area

Michigan Security Systems is based in Mount Clemens and serves commercial clients throughout Metro Detroit and across the state, with additional offices in Wixom and Milford. Our core service area covers the three counties at the heart of southeast Michigan — and our reach extends well beyond them.

• Macomb County — our home county. Commercial security cameras, access control, and alarm systems in Sterling Heights, Warren, Clinton Township, Shelby Township, Roseville, St. Clair Shores, Chesterfield, and across Macomb.
• Oakland County — commercial security systems in Troy, Farmington Hills, Novi, Auburn Hills, Rochester, Southfield, Royal Oak, and throughout Oakland.
• Wayne County — security cameras, access control, and network services in Detroit, Livonia, Dearborn, Canton, Westland, and the surrounding Wayne County communities.
• Livingston County and beyond — from Brighton and Howell out to communities across mid-Michigan.

Beyond southeast Michigan, we install and service commercial security cameras, access control, alarm systems, network cabling, and audio/video for businesses across Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. From our Mount Clemens headquarters in the middle of Macomb County, most Michigan service calls are a short drive — not a distant dispatch — which means faster installs and faster service when you need it.

How to choose a commercial security company in Michigan

Whether or not you ever call us, you deserve to make an informed choice. The Michigan security systems market has plenty of options, and they are not all the same. Here is what actually matters when you evaluate a commercial security company — the questions we would want a business owner to ask anyone bidding on their building:

1. How long have they truly operated — and under what name?

A long, verifiable track record is the single best predictor of whether a company will still be around to service your system. Ask how many years the company has actually been installing commercial security in Michigan, and whether that history is continuous. An established name with two decades of local work behind it is a very different proposition from a newer operation. Michigan Security Systems has operated under this name since 2000 — and our reputation, reviews, and references reflect that history.

2. Who actually does the work?

This is the question that trips up more buyers than any other. Many companies bid the job and then hand the actual installation to subcontractors you never met and cannot vet. Ask directly: “Will your own licensed employees install and service this, or will it be subcontracted?” At Michigan Security Systems, the answer is simple — our own licensed Michigan technicians do every installation, with no subcontractors.

3. Can they show you real, local references?

A credible commercial integrator can point to real projects for businesses like yours, in your area, and put you in touch with those clients. Ask for references from commercial customers in your county or industry. Be cautious of a company that cannot produce them, or whose reviews and portfolio do not match the size of the claims they make.

4. Are they genuinely commercial — or a residential company taking commercial work?

Commercial buildings have requirements a residential installer may not handle well: multi-door access control, large camera counts, network infrastructure, code and compliance considerations, and coordination with other trades. Michigan Security Systems is commercial-only. That is all we do, and it shows in the work.

5. Can you confirm their manufacturer partnerships and licensing?

Reputable integrators are authorized dealers for the brands they install and can prove it — and they hold the proper Michigan licensing. Ask which manufacturers they are certified with and confirm it. We are an authorized dealer and installer for professional-grade lines including Axis, Hanwha, Digital Watchdog, PDK, and more.

6. Will they stand behind it after the install?

The install is the beginning of the relationship, not the end. Ask who you call when something needs adjusting, and how fast they respond. Because we self-perform and stay on as your service team, support is a phone call to the same local company that built your system — not a handoff to someone else.

The bottom line

Choosing a commercial security company in Michigan comes down to a few honest questions: How long have they really been doing this? Who actually does the work? Can they prove it with references and credentials? Are they built for commercial buildings? And will they be there afterward? Ask those questions of anyone you consider.

Michigan Security Systems has answered them the same way since 2000: a licensed, commercial-only integrator, our own Michigan technicians, real local references, and one number to call. If you are protecting a business in Michigan, Ohio, or Indiana, we would welcome the chance to earn your trust the same way we have earned it for more than two decades.
