Crime Prevention Security Systems (CPSS) is a family-owned and operated company celebrating 49 years of protecting families, homes and businesses.  As a family and as a local business, we believe everyone should enjoy a safe and fun home.  

John A. Pastore, Jr. and Randi Elrad started Crime Prevention Security Systems in 1975, and out of the desire to provide better customer service, they opened their own security monitoring station, Universal Security Monitoring.  In 2006 they launched Custom Home Entertainment, to provide customers with a one-stop shop for all of their home entertainment and automation needs.

Our Installation and Service departments are the best in the business, and we have technicians available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  We are "Large Enough to Serve You, Small Enough to Care".
