Sonitrol of Evansville, Inc.

Sonitrol of Evansville, Inc. Locally owned and operated, we provide integrated business security solutions to protect what matters. Baxter invented other sound-related devices, too.

The company known today for detecting burglars had its roots in pest control of a different sort in the late 1950s. Robert Baxter, of Anderson, Indiana, installed microphones within the walls of a building to listen for termites and pinpoint their location. On June 16, 1960, he incorporated “Sonitrol”, from the words sound and control, to manufacture and market his innovations. Law Enforcement Legacy

In 1963, Baxter met Al Cronk, a local police officer who owned an alarm company. Cronk was frustrated with systems that seemed to let the perpetrators get away. He hired Baxter, the inventor, to develop new ideas for the alarm company. Baxter responded with the audio sensor, and Sonitrol was born as a security company. Today, Sonitrol provides tailored local business and home security service in approximately 180 cities throughout the United States and Canada. Now the third largest commercial security company in North America, Sonitrol is the clear leader in verified electronic security

Team Sonitrol would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the family and friends of K9 Officer Doc, who was laid to rest last night. Our hearts go out to his humans, Officer John Montgomery, wife Lauren, and their children, who all adored and loved Doc.

In 2016, Sonitrol of Evansville provided the sponsorship for Evansville Police Foundation to purchase K9 Doc, who worked faithfully alongside Officer Montgomery in patrol and narcotics detection.

After a life of serving our community, full of criminal apprehensions and narcotics detection, K9 Doc enjoyed a well-earned retirement surrounded by his pack of loving humans. We enjoyed following his career with Evansville Police Department and celebrating his birthdays with lots of toys and treats.

Team Sonitrol took a personal interest in this beautiful Hungarian born German Shepherd, who was named (after a unanimous vote) in honor of our late Sonitrol of Evansville founder, Dr. William “Doc” Standring. Rest in peace, K9 Doc. We will never forget you or your service of keeping our streets safe. You will be missed. 🐾

We will miss you, K9 Doc.

We will miss you, K9 Doc.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of retired EPD K-9 Doc.

Doc faithfully served alongside the Evansville Police Department before retiring in 2024. Throughout his years of service, he was more than a working K-9 - he was a trusted partner, a protector, and a beloved member of the EPD family.

Doc also held a special connection to the Evansville Police Foundation. He was purchased through the Foundation thanks to the generous sponsorship of Sonitrol of Evansville, Inc., whose support helped bring Doc to EPD and begin his years of service to our community.

Throughout his career, Doc was an integral part of the K9 Team and made an incredible impact. He had 33 apprehensions, 100 surrenders, sniffed out 100 pounds of ma*****na and 42 pounds of methamphetamine, located more than $100,000 in currency, and earned several USPCA awards.

We are grateful for Doc’s loyalty, dedication, and the lasting mark he leaves on the EPD family and our community. Our thoughts are with his handler, Officer John Montgomery, his family, and all those who knew, worked alongside, and loved him.

Rest easy, Doc. Thank you for your faithful service. You will not be forgotten.

You Asked, We Answered.

🚨 Considering a new or updated security system for your business? Here are answers to a few questions you may have about how SONITROL security works:

Q: What happens when an alarm is triggered?
A: When an alarm is triggered, our trained Central Station operators are immediately alerted. With SonaVision, operators can access live video from the protected area to see what caused the alarm. If suspicious activity or an intrusion is verified, they can provide responding law enforcement with valuable real-time information about what is happening on site.

Q: Are businesses monitored after closing?
A: Yes! Our Central Station provides 24/7 monitoring, so your business can remain protected even when no one is there.

Q: Can you manage a security system from your phone?
A: Yes. Depending on your system, you can remotely manage features like arming and disarming, view activity, and manage users right from your phone.

Q: Can SONITROL customize a security system for different businesses?
A: Absolutely. Every business has different needs, which is why we design security solutions around your property, risks, and priorities.

The Most Vulnerable Time Might Not Be After Hours.

When you think about business security, you probably think about protecting your property when the doors are locked and everyone has gone home.

But what about during the workday?

Employees are coming and going. Deliveries are being made. Visitors are entering the building. With doors opening throughout the day, it can be difficult to know who is entering your building and where they’re going.

That’s why business security goes beyond protecting your property after hours.

With solutions like access control and video surveillance, you can have greater visibility and control over what’s happening throughout your business, even when the workday is in full swing.

Because protecting your business shouldn’t only happen when the doors are locked.

SEE MORE. PROTECT MORE.

Having security cameras is one thing. Having the right cameras in the right places is what makes the difference.

Blind spots, poor camera angles, low image quality and inadequate coverage leaves you without the footage you need when an incident happens.

At SONITROL we design video surveillance systems around your business, your property and specific security concerns. This helps you see more, protect more and get more value from your system.

Because when something happens, you need more than a recording. You need video you can actually use.
