Frequently asked questions

I want to renew for next year as soon as possible. How can I make my renewal payment early?

The city of Ann Arbor Online Alarm Registration System (OARS) will forward you to the payment screens to pay for renewal 59 days or less before your registration is due to expire. Most Ann Arbor alarm registrations expire on 12/31/XXXX which will mean you can not pay for your registration online until after November 1 of each year. You CAN register and pay early by going to the City Hall and renewing in person or by mail.


RING has indicated they will not be responsible for no response policies for your local fire ordinance. How can I insure my fire alarm will be responded to?

The city of Ann Arbor requires a commercial property to be inspected by the fire department. We do not have specific information on how to arrange a fire inspection, more information can be found below, or you can contact the fire department. Our role here is to assist in helping you get registered online for Police. You are no longer required to register your alarm system if you have a 'fire only' alarm. More info on registering for police alarms and fire inspections can be found on these pages

IF YOU RECEIVE A LARGER FINE IN YOUR INVOICE: If you receive an invoice for $119 or $287 it is because you were not registered at the time of the false alarm and the registration fee was added to your false alarm fee. Please register anyway, as the 911 center needs your contact information in case of emergency.

Can my fee be waived if I have a Burglar/Fire Alarm combination?

Please contact your alarm company that installed the dual fire/burglar alarm panel system for a 'Certificate of Installation'. When you receive your invoice, please mail the invoice back with the certificate of installation, and we will add your credit. If you have the ability to scan in your certificate, you can do so and email it to Support@alarmsupport.org.

When an alarm owner installs 'Ring' and they do not have a monitoring company, what number should they call if they see a burglary in progress? Call 911 if a burglary is in progress, it needs to be reported asap. If they see on a recording that a burglary has happened in the past, they can call non-emergency dispatch (517-272-6026).


The city of Lansing requires you to reregister if you move or change your alarm company. If you do not move or change your alarm company your registration will not expire.
