Umbrella Security Systems

Umbrella Security Team did a great job for my company. They secured a 14,000 sq ft Building with no Power, with Solar Power burglar sensors, and fire alarm sensors. This covered me for insurance needs, in a rough time. Tom and his Team came through, and his excellent service and products I highly recommend in the commercial field!

I recently hired Umbrella Security Systems to install a burglary alarm system for our 14,000 sq. ft. facility, and the experience was flawless from start to finish. If you are looking for warehouse security especially in new buildouts I highly recommend them

Where they stand out: Insane Turnaround Time: They completed this large-scale install twice as fast as any of their competitors from my 9 years in the industry. Their efficiency is unmatched.

Elite Customer Service: I was shocked when they answered the phone after hours. The owner personally called me back within minutes to discuss the project that level of dedication is rare these days.

Massive Cost Savings: Their pricing for a comparable product was less than half of what other companies quoted me.

Professional & Clean Execution: The technician was knowledgeable, friendly, and kept me in the loop throughout the entire process. The installation itself was clean, professional, and completely hassle-free despite the size of the building.

Flexible & Fair: Their service and contract terms are flexible, which was a huge breath of fresh air compared to the rigid "lock-in" contracts I saw elsewhere.

Comprehensive Walkthrough: After the install, they didn't just leave; they provided a thorough walkthrough of the application and functionality, ensuring I knew exactly how to manage the burglary system for the entire facility.

Umbrella Security Systems provides a "white-glove" experience at a fraction of the cost. Ill be using them for all my future security needs.

Umbrella Security has gone above and beyond our expectations in supporting the needs at our nonprofit organization. They are a turn-key operation from installation to on going support, employee training and ease of use. The quality materials and high level service they provided helped us to make the right decision with this organization. Tom, Zach and the entire team came and reviewed our needs, provided recommendations and executed as needed. They provided the right tools we didn't know we needed and thank you for keeping our staff safe!

We worked very closely with Tom and Zach through the quoting process and chose their business to outfit our 80,000sq/ft manufacturing and office space. Their dedication to finding the best solution at a respectable cost all while being honest and forthcoming won them our business. Thanks again!!

I had an electronic access control system installed at my office in April 2025. Zach showed up right on time, verified all the hardware, then quickly and cleanly modified the door frame, installed the lock, in/out readers, and a doorposition sensor. He wired everything back to the controller, ran a full system test, and walked me through how it all works. The installation was flawless, the system is performing perfectly, and Zach was professional, efficient, and detailoriented the entire time. Highly recommend!

I hired Umbrella Security to upgrade and replace the door access system and to upgrade our camera surveillance system for my Joliet law firm. They were great! Our new security system is both high-tech (fob badges, RFID mobile phone access, keypad access) and user-friendly. The company's president, Thomas, understands the needs of small business owners and what is important to them. His employee Zach, who did the work on site, was thorough, knowledgeable, and professional. I recommend Umbrella to other businesses in the area who need to install, upgrade, or replace their security systems!

We had a great experience with Umbrella Tech for our security setup. Tom & Zach are fantastic to work with. Zach & Tom are professional, knowledgeable, and responsive.

The installation process was smooth and efficient, with minimal disruption to our daily operations. My team and association truly love the system they have provided making everyone feel safe and know buildings are secured.

I highly recommend Umbrella Tech to anyone looking for reliable security solutions. Thank you Tom & Zach!

We contacted Umbrella Security Systems to help us with a unique ask to search premises for any possible hidden camera installations. They understood our urgency and came out quickly. They were thorough, professional, and easy to work with throughout. The report provided included photos and videos to show the detailed approach to our problem. Highly recommend this company! A special thank you to Tom and his team.

Our company has been using Umbrella for over a year now and I can say they really are best in class. Their team is very responsive and communication is great. Thomas the owner really cares about the customers and it shows. The tech is also best in class and the technicians understand it and provide great user training. Highly recommend!!!

These guys know what they are doing. Fixed what a bigger company (The Flying Locksmiths) couldn't.

Umbrella Technologies installed their OpenPath system for us recently. We are very pleased with the software's functionality and we were also impressed by the technicians who installed the software. They were prompt and finished the work in a timely manner. Since the installation, Thomas Carnevale, the COO and founder, and his employees have always made the time to assist us as required. In addition, the cost is reasonable compared to other companies we had considered. Thank you! Vistio.

I am the manager of a 650-unit condominium property located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. In the process of researching touchless access control systems, I contacted OpenPath for more information and was referred to Umbrella Technologies and its Founder/COO Thomas Carnevale. I found Umbrella Technologies initial presentation to be both compelling and enlightening, and after further research, the Board of Directors signed a contract for the installation of the access control system and video monitoring equipment. I could not be more pleased with the outcome of the installation, both in terms of the execution of the install, the functionality of the equipment and the ease of setup/operation. There were no surprises and no delays, all elements work exactly as presented and promised during our due diligence. I anticipated some level of problems to arise during the rollout to homeowners and was pleasantly surprised to experience very few concerns. Those we did experience were primarily related to setting up access schedules for a clubhouse, two swimming pool facilities and pickleball/tennis court facilities. We have not received any complaints, even from our most skeptical owners. I am posting an unreserved recommendation regarding the OpenPath touchless access control system and Umbrella Technologies.

Umbrella Technologies is very professional. They installed the camera system at our Pool house in a timely manner. The technician did a great job explaining everything. I would recommend this company for all of your technology needs.

Great experience, fast and made sure to test all services were restored. Would def recommend them and I myself have saved there number!

We have been working with Umbrella Technologies for the past year.
And have installed the Open Path entry system in four of our properties .
Our staff and clients could not be happier. And the team at Umbrella
are extremely accommodating and understanding every step of the way.
I would highly recommend them for any of your security needs

We asked Umbrella Technologies to come up with a cost effective solution to our Condo's Intercom, Access Control and Surveillance needs. We appreciated their timely proposal and solution - and their installation and support have been superb. I feel like we have a true integrated solution to provides owners piece of mind at a price point we could afford.

I met Umbrella Technologies at several events in which they spoke about security plans for Cannabis Dispensary Applications. Their insight provided me so much value we hired them for a social equity application. Their 50-page security plan deliverable was outstanding and not only cited every regulation by the state but its composition was that of a culture of security and transparency for new Cannabis Businesses. We look forward to using their expertise in future applications. I would highly recommend Umbrella to anyone who needs security.
