Our story

50 years of protecting Tennessee

Turner Security has served Tennessee since 1976. Today our crews install and support security cameras, access control, intrusion alarms, live video monitoring, mobile camera trailers and fire alarm systems for businesses across Tennessee.

Cameras, door readers and recorders all run on the network, so our sister company TechCore supports the IT those systems depend on with the same owners, offices and team. Most of our customers are local, and we also support national multi-site customers, including a national chemical distributor with 137 locations across the US and Canada that replaced on-site guards with live video monitoring.

What makes us different

How we work

Same-day scheduling

We can often schedule service the same day you call, instead of weeks out.

Remote help desk first

Our help desk resolves the majority of service issues remotely, before a truck rolls.

No long-term contracts

No three or five year agreements on security or monitoring. We keep your business by doing a good job.

Live talk-down monitoring

Monitoring agents watch your cameras and speak through on-site speakers to stop trespassers.

AI video analytics

Eagle Eye's AI can be added to most existing cameras for alerts on loitering, vehicles and more.

Security and IT together

One company for your security systems and the network they run on, through TechCore.

Partners

The equipment and platforms we work with

We work with manufacturers like Alarm.com, Avigilon, Axis, Bosch, Brivo, Eagle Eye Networks, Hanwha Vision, HID, Honeywell, LenelS2 and others, so each system can be built around the site instead of a single brand.
