Security Work in Lake Alfred
Kincaid Alarm has been working out of Lake Wales since 1973, and Lake Alfred is well inside the area we cover every week. Same technicians, same Florida central station, same written pricing, whether you are five minutes from the office or across the county.
Lake Alfred is 21 miles from our office and sits between two of our busiest markets, Winter Haven and Auburndale, so we are on that road constantly. The lakefront here has the same water-side exposure as Winter Haven with fewer houses watching each other, and the newer gated communities have the same unfinished builder prewire we see across the growth corridor. The UF IFAS Citrus Research and Education Center gives the town an institutional presence with a different set of access and after-hours requirements from anything residential.
What Lake Alfred Properties Actually Need
Lake Alfred is lake-oriented and growing. The shoreline on Lake Rochelle and Lake Haines is single-family waterfront with docks, lifts and boathouses, and the water side of those properties is the approach nothing facing the street covers. Water Ridge and Gum Lake Preserve are newer gated developments where owners frequently assume the gate is the system, and where builder prewire sits unused in the walls. The downtown around Pomelo Street and the depot area is a small commercial core of independent businesses. Eden Hills and The Lakes are conventional newer subdivisions. The overall pattern is a town that has added a lot of new housing quickly, which means a lot of houses with alarm wiring installed and never finished.

A lot of Lake Alfred housing is recent, which means builder alarm prewire sitting in the walls unused. Finishing that is considerably cheaper than starting from nothing.

All service areasLake Alfred Security FAQs
My house came with alarm wiring the builder installed. Is it usable?
Usually a good part of it is, and in Lake Alfred we see this constantly because so much of the housing is recent. Prewire normally means contacts in some door and window frames and a panel position roughed in, with nothing programmed. We come out, see what was actually run, and tell you what can be used and what has to be added.
Can you cover the dock and boat lift?
Yes. On Lake Rochelle and Lake Haines the water side is the unwatched side, and docks, lifts and boats sit unattended most of the day. We use weather-rated hardware and plan the cable route for the exposure, because equipment on a dock has a harder life than equipment under a soffit.
We are in a gated community. Do we still need an alarm?
Yes. A gate manages vehicle traffic and nothing else. Guests, landscapers, cleaners and contractors all pass through it legitimately every day, and none of that is screened at your front door.
How far away are you?
Twenty one miles from our Lake Wales office, on a road we are on constantly between Winter Haven and Auburndale. Monitoring response is immediate regardless of distance, since it comes from the central station.
