Guardian Alarm announces the acquisition of Executive Security Consultants in Columbus, OH

Established in 1988 by Doug and Sandy Huey, Executive Security Consultants (ESC) provides residential and commercial alarm services in the greater Columbus area. Together, they worked countless hours to ensure they were providing peace of mind to their customers. This acquisition continues this legacy as both companies provide exemplary, personalized customer service, but also have a family-like culture that exists within their teams.

“Guardian Alarm has been serving the Columbus market for many years and we look forward to welcoming the employees and customers of Executive Security Consultants,” said Brent Uhl, President and Chief Executive Officer of Guardian Alarm. “Executive Security Consultants has delivered reliable customer service in the Columbus metro area for over thirty years. With this merger, we will be able to expand their services to include fire and alarm services to area businesses and municipalities.”

“This acquisition in the Columbus market will provide Guardian Alarm with a strong market presence and will allow us to serve more customers in this growing area. As we continue our aggressive growth strategy to increase subscribers and revenue, our existing and future customers will benefit from the expanded services and technology,” Uhl said.

We like the customer service that we get. If you use the big companies you wont get good customer service. With this company you can talk directly with the owner.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words Cheryl. We are always here for you day or night!

I've had this system for just 6 months and familiarizing myself with the system, at times, has been a challenge. I was very satisfied with the quick responses I received via phone or online to my questions and concerns. Each person I spoke with was courteous and understanding and online responses were received in a timely manner.

This was an awesome experience. The installer of our alarm Tim Kapottis was amazing. From the moment he stepped foot into my home I knew our installation was in great hands. Upon Tim’s arrival he had a winning greeting and had an awesome approach to explain his scope of work & how dedicated he was to doing a great job for us today. His customer service is outstanding but most important his knowledge and skill set was top notch! Guardian alarm is very fortunate to have Tim Kapottos as a field agent! We appreciate the service & quality of the product. Our home feels safe & secure!
