A record isn’t proof of poor work: busy companies do more jobs and so collect more records, and many fines concern paperwork or staff certificates. Ask the company about anything here. Checked Nov 2, 2026 with Washington L&I. Full record: KNSALS*022DW. What this covers.

KNS Alarm Services is a small, local alarm company in Spokane Valley serving homes and businesses in Washington and Idaho; it says it has been licensed since 1991.

  • Security systems: it says it has worked with Bosch, DSC and other brands, and now prefers First Alert (formerly Honeywell Home) systems, which it says integrate with most major smart home platforms. It can take over and reuse many existing systems after a walkthrough.
  • Cameras: low-light cameras that integrate with the First Alert security system and phone app, with AI detection of people, animals, vehicles and packages. It also fixes or finishes DIY camera installs.
  • Monitoring: the site describes a 24/7 monitoring service and says contracts are year-to-year, not multi-year. It does not say whether the monitoring center is its own or contracted, so the listing does not include it under security systems.
  • Fire alarms: installation, testing and testing paperwork for businesses.
