Welcome to the Houston Gulf Coast Alarm Association (HGCAA) web site. The HGCAA was established in 1974. It is comprised mainly of Houston metropolitan area security and fire alarm companies and associated vendors. We are a non-profit organization of security professionals who have joined together to enrich the alarm industry in providing membership training, industry information, and representation in the Texas Legislature, Private Security Bureau, State Fire Marshal’s Office, City of Houston, and other surrounding municipalities.
HGCAA members are dedicated to excellence and professionalism. The HGCAA believes in upholding a high moral and ethical standard for the industry and its members. We also believe in our Code of Ethics and require members to abide by these standards.
