Editorial Review
Our Take on True Protection
True Protection is a founder-led Texas company with a clear licence trail, weekend hours and no required long contract. Its Google pin and street address disagree, so call before visiting the office.

Things to Consider

Company Background
About True Protection
True Protection lists its San Antonio location at 6391 De Zavala Rd Suite 112A, a retail and office center near UTSA, and Google shows it open 8 am to 5 pm on weekdays and 9 am to 5 pm on Saturday and Sunday. One detail to check: the Google map pin for this listing sits near Cherry Ridge Drive rather than on De Zavala, so call ahead if you plan to drop by.
Matthew True founded the company in 2011 in Central Texas after several years working for national security firms, and the about page says he set it up to avoid the sales quota culture he saw there. The company now works across Texas and in a few other states.
In San Antonio the work is residential and small business security: wireless door, window and motion sensors, cellular communicators, indoor and outdoor cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, access control and UL certified alarm monitoring, all run through the Alarm.com app. The site says no long-term contract is required and that cameras carry a lifetime limited warranty. It lists a BBB A+ rating.
The website footer lists Texas licence B17442 and Texas fire alarm registration ACR 1757742, along with licences in Arizona, Georgia and Minnesota.
Google shows 4.8 from 143 Google reviews, read November 11, 2026. Of those, 133 are five star and 7 are one star, so the low reviews are few but worth a look.
True Protection suits a homeowner on the northwest side who wants a cellular alarm with cameras and a company that does not insist on a long contract. It suits you less if you want to walk into a showroom, since the map pin and street address do not line up. Before booking, ask for the monitoring rate and any cancellation terms in writing, confirm what the lifetime limited warranty covers, check licence B17442 on the Texas DPS Private Security TOPS search, and register the system for a City of San Antonio alarm permit.
