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.”

We have had our alarm system for 3 weeks now and are very satisfied with it. We liked the guardian system because it did not require a lot of wiring and drilling, it is a very clean system which can easily cover every room in the house. It also has easy access options from the panel, your cell phone or laptop.

It took a while before we had all the settings adjusted to our needs, it would have been nice if we were given an owners manual at the beginning to help us with the various options. During the installation, you really don't know what you want, but after a couple of days of hearing "garage door open" you want to silence that! They have very good technical customer service which helped me through these options and advised where I would download the owners manual (it was too large to attach to an email).

TJ, the gentleman who installed our system was also very helpful, coming out to our home after hours to fix a doorbell chime not working and promptly returning all calls made to him. Our salesperson, Angela, was also very friendly and helpful!

Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience, John. We are so happy that you are enjoying your new system. We appreciate you choosing Guardian Alarm!
