Stone’s Security – Your local team

When the Walsh family purchased Stone’s Security Systems in 2021, they set out to preserve a legacy of local service while modernizing the company’s approach to home and business protection. Under their stewardship, Stone’s has deepened its technical partnerships—most notably as a Premier Resideo First Alert partner—so customers benefit from industry‑leading hardware and integrated smart‑home solutions backed by hands‑on, local support. The Walshes have kept the business deliberately people‑centered: every installation, system design, and customer conversation is treated as an opportunity to build trust rather than to push a sale.

Your Local Team for Grand Forks SecurityThat community focus shows up beyond the service call. Stone’s regularly supports youth athletics and local teams through donations and sponsorships, and the company is a visible presence at regional events, including rodeos and other community gatherings. Those commitments reflect a broader philosophy: investing in the places where employees and customers live, work, and raise families. The company also contributes to veterans’ memorials and civic projects, reinforcing a reputation for civic responsibility that complements its technical credentials.

Operationally, Stone’s blends small‑business accountability with professional standards. Owner involvement ensures direct oversight of training, installations, and customer follow‑up, while the Resideo First Alert partnership gives the team access to interoperable, professionally supported products. For customers in the Grand Forks area and beyond, that combination means modern, reliable security systems delivered with the responsiveness and personal touch of a family‑run company.

While many security providers operate through distant call centers, Stone’s Security Systems remains rooted in the belief that safety is personal. Being based in the Grand Forks area means our team understands the specific needs of North Dakota and Minnesota residents—from the challenges our winters pose to outdoor camera hardware to the unique layouts of local commercial properties. This regional expertise allows us to recommend solutions that aren’t just “industry standard,” but “locally proven.” When you call us, you aren’t reaching a corporate queue; you’re reaching a neighbor who understands the layout of your street and the importance of a quick response time.

Looking ahead, the Walshes aim to grow thoughtfully expanding service offerings and community partnerships without losing the local accountability that defines Stone’s. The company’s trajectory is straightforward: provide dependable, professionally installed security solutions, stand behind them with attentive local service, and keep giving back to the community that made the business possible.
