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.”

Diana M.
About a week ago, I spoke with a representative named Lisa, and she was absolutely amazing. She was so sweet, patient, and helpful throughout the entire call. We were on the phone for about 30 minutes while she walked me through how to properly arm and disarm my alarm system.
I explained to her that I have a dog, and whenever I used “Arm Away,” my dog moving around would sometimes trigger the alarm. Lisa explained that using “Arm Stay” would work much better for my situation. Ever since following her advice, my alarm hasn’t gone off unnecessarily at all!
She took her time to make sure I understood everything and never made me feel rushed. I’m so happy I got the chance to speak with her that day. Excellent customer service like hers deserves recognition!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback, Diana! We're so glad to hear Lisa provided such patient, kind and helpful support while walking you through your system settings. We'll be sure to recognize Lisa for delivering the exceptional customer service you experienced!
