Moving with Frontpoint: How to Transfer Your Security System to Your New Home

Moving can feel exciting, stressful, chaotic—or honestly, all three at once. Between packing boxes, updating your address, and coordinating moving day logistics, home security probably isn’t the first thing on your mind.

The good news? Moving your Frontpoint system is designed to be simple. With Frontpoint’s Mover’s Program, customers can easily transfer their system to a new address, receive a Mover’s Kit for reinstallation, and continue protecting what matters most without starting over from scratch.

Whether you’re moving across town or across the country, here’s everything you need to know about relocating your Frontpoint home security system.

 

What Is Frontpoint’s Mover’s Program?

Frontpoint’s Mover’s Program helps existing customers move their home security system to a new residence with minimal hassle. Through the Move Portal, customers can update their address information, schedule their move, and request a complimentary Mover’s Kit to help reinstall their equipment at their new home.

Because Frontpoint systems are designed for DIY installation, most customers can easily disconnect, transport, and reinstall their equipment themselves—without needing a technician appointment.

 

Why Move Your Existing Security System?

One of the biggest advantages of a wireless home security system is flexibility. Instead of leaving your protection behind, you can take your system with you and continue using the equipment you already know and trust.

Moving your existing system can help you:

• Maintain professional monitoring without interruption
• Avoid learning an entirely new system
• Keep the devices you already use and trust
• Protect your new home immediately after moving in
• Customize your setup for your new space

For many homeowners, moving also becomes a great opportunity to reevaluate their security needs and make upgrades based on their new home’s layout.

 

What’s Included in the Frontpoint Mover’s Kit?

Customers who complete the move process through the Frontpoint Move Portal will receive a Mover’s Kit that includes:

• Adhesives for remounting sensors
• 1 Frontpoint door sticker
• 3 Frontpoint window decals
• 1 Frontpoint yard sign

These materials make it easier to reinstall your equipment while helping maintain visible deterrents around your new property.

 

How to Submit Your Move Request

Moving your Frontpoint system only takes a few steps.

1. Access the Move Portal

Start by visiting the Frontpoint Move Portal and selecting Start Move.

2. Enter Your New Residence Information

You’ll be asked to provide:

• Your new address
• Your moving date

Your moving date should reflect the day your system will actually be relocated.

3. Schedule Your Mover’s Kit Delivery

Choose where you’d like your Mover’s Kit shipped and select a preferred delivery date.

4. Complete Your Request

Review your information and submit your move request through the portal.

 

What to Do on Moving Day

Before removing your equipment, make sure your system is fully disarmed.

On moving day:

• Power down your Frontpoint Control Panel
• Carefully remove sensors and equipment
• Keep components organized during transport
• Reinstall your system using the included adhesives once you arrive at your new home

Once your system is reinstalled, you can follow Frontpoint’s setup instructions to reconnect and reactivate your devices.

 

Review Your Security Coverage for Your New Home

Every home is different, and moving is a great opportunity to review your current setup and decide whether you need additional protection.

Your new home may have:

• More entry points
• Larger outdoor areas
• Detached garages or sheds
• Different camera coverage needs
• Additional windows or doors to monitor

If you’d like to add extra equipment—such as additional sensors, security cameras, smart locks, or environmental monitoring devices—you can easily shop for compatible devices directly through your Frontpoint account.

Simply log into the Frontpoint app or customer portal and select Shop from the sidebar menu to browse and order additional equipment for your new home.

 

Helpful Tips for Moving Your Security System

A little preparation can make moving day much smoother.

Label Your Equipment

If you have multiple sensors or cameras, labeling them before removal can make reinstallation faster and easier later.

Keep Components Together

Store cords, mounts, sensors, and accessories together in a clearly labeled box during the move so nothing gets misplaced.

Test Your System After Setup

Once your system is installed at your new home, test your sensors, cameras, and notifications to confirm everything is working properly.
