Why choose 911 Sentinel over Cascadia Global Security
Watched between patrols
Three patrols a night still leave most of the night unwatched. Our cameras are watched live for your whole monitoring window, and an operator acts within 3 minutes of any alert.
A fraction of the hourly cost
At Cascadia's quoted $30 to $60 an hour, one officer 8 hours a night runs roughly $7,300 to $14,600 a month. Our camera monitoring starts at $900, and drive-by vehicle patrol at $1,500.
Drones in Washington, not Texas
Cascadia's drone program is launching in Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, and Houston. Our drone surveillance is offered across western Washington, flown by FAA-certified pilots, alongside cameras and patrol from one team.

A site that needs officers in person: alarm response and verification on site, lock-ups, safe walks for staff after hours, or an armed post.
Common questions
Is 911 Sentinel cheaper than Cascadia Global Security?
For overnight coverage, yes. Cascadia says most Seattle onsite programs run $30 to $60 an hour, roughly $7,300 to $14,600 a month for one officer 8 hours a night. 911 Sentinel camera monitoring starts at $900 a month and drive-by vehicle patrol at $1,500, with the site watched live for the whole window.
What does no-contact mean?
No one from 911 Sentinel approaches, confronts, chases, holds, or removes anyone. We act through recorded warnings, the siren and spotlights, and calls to your team and the police.
How does vehicle patrol work?
A vehicle carrying a four-camera roof rig drives set routes past your lots, gates, and fence lines, or stays on site with periodic loops. AI and our team watch the rig's cameras live. Anything it finds goes to your team, then the police if no one answers in the agreed minutes, and every pass is recorded and logged. No one approaches anyone.
Will the police actually come?
Since October 1, 2024, Seattle police have answered alarm-company calls only with supporting evidence such as video, and that is exactly what we give them: a person who has watched the live video and can confirm what is happening. Police set their own priorities, and a verified call with live video is the kind they ask for.
