What does Turner Security do for businesses?

Turner Security designs, installs, monitors and services commercial security systems: intrusion alarms, security cameras, access control, live video monitoring with talk-down, AI video analytics, mobile camera trailers, fire alarm systems and the recorders behind them. Our offices in Smyrna and Chattanooga serve Middle Tennessee, the Chattanooga region and national multi-site customers.

Because our sister company TechCore handles business IT, one team can plan the security system and the network it runs on. There are no long-term contracts on security or monitoring.

Why businesses choose Turner

We have protected businesses in Tennessee since 1976. Customers stay because the service is good, not because a contract makes them. That is why we do not require long-term agreements on security or monitoring.

When something goes wrong, our help desk starts on it right away and resolves most issues remotely before a truck rolls. When a visit is needed, we can often schedule it the same day you call.

Common questions

Questions business owners ask us

Which security service should my business start with?

Start with the problem you are trying to solve. Break-ins usually point to alarms and cameras, key control problems point to access control, and after-hours trespassing or guard costs point to live video monitoring. A free walkthrough lets us recommend the right starting point.

Do you require long-term contracts?

No. Turner Security does not require long-term agreements on security or monitoring. We want to keep your business by doing good work.

Can you work with the cameras and alarm I already have?

Often, yes. We review your existing equipment, reuse what still works and tell you plainly what should be replaced. AI video analytics can also be added to most existing camera systems.

How quickly can I get service?

Our help desk resolves most service issues remotely. When a technician is needed, we can often schedule service the same day you call.

Do you handle businesses with locations in other states?

Yes. We support national multi-site customers, including one with 137 locations across the US and Canada.

Can the same company handle my security and my IT?

Yes. TechCore, our sister company, handles managed IT, networks, servers and phones with the same owners, offices and team.

What customers say

Five-star reviews from real customers

Great products, great service, great price! We needed to establish a solid security setup for our small business that wouldn't break the bank. After getting quotes from a few providers, we went with Turner as they are locally owned and offer the same top-notch technologies as the bigger companies, only at a more competitive price. 24/7, Turner Security has us covered and we're so thankful!

Tim H. Google review, 5 stars

Richard did a great job setting up the security system at my place of work. He was very professional and thorough.
