Two decades of protecting and connecting Chicago-area businesses with enterprise security and technology solutions.
PowerTech Group of Chicago is a Licensed Security Company and UL Listed provider headquartered in Arlington Heights, Illinois. For over two decades, we have designed, installed, and maintained safety, security, and IT infrastructure for commercial and industrial clients across the Chicago metropolitan area.
We believe that every business deserves access to enterprise-grade technology — and a partner who takes the time to understand your unique operations before recommending a single piece of equipment. Our approach is consultative, our installations are precise, and our service is built to last.
From single-door access control to multi-building security systems, from a simple network switch to a fully managed IT infrastructure — we handle it all, under one roof, with the same team you'll know by name.
We've built our reputation one installation at a time — with technical excellence, honest pricing, and service that stands behind every system we touch.
Our UL Central Station Certification (ID #1624830-000) means your alarm systems are verified against the most stringent standards in the industry — providing real protection and insurance recognition.
We don't sell boxes — we solve problems. Our team spends time understanding your facility, your risks, and your goals before designing a single system.
No subcontractors. Every installation, service call, and upgrade is performed by our own trained, licensed, and background-checked technicians.
Many of our clients have been with us for 10+ years. We're not just a vendor — we're part of your team, invested in your long-term safety and operational success.
Security emergencies don't wait for business hours. Our 24/7 emergency support line means you always have a live PTG technician ready to help.
Security, fire, cameras, access control, and IT — all from a single, accountable partner. Fewer vendors means fewer headaches and better integrated systems.
Our certifications aren't just credentials on a wall — they represent ongoing commitments to standards, training, and accountability that protect your business.
