We continue to expand our operations in the Northeast by recently acquiring Amherst Alarm, an industry-leading fire alarm, security, and monitoring provider in Western New York. This addition expands our footprint outside of New York City and Long Island to the western part of the state.
Amherst Alarm, headquartered just outside of Buffalo in Amherst, New York, provides expert-level life safety solutions including security alarms, fire detection, 24/7 monitoring, video surveillance, access control and emergency service for businesses including offices, restaurants, retail stores and warehouses. Tim Creenan, an experienced security technician, founded Amherst Alarm in 1984 with his wife, Maryann, and one part-time installer. Since then, Amherst has acquired several additional companies and become a leader in their market.
“Amherst Alarm has been in my family for nearly 40 years, so it was important for me to find the right organization to continue the work we’ve done for our team and clients,” said Tim Creenan, CEO and Founder of Amherst Alarm. “We believe this is the best fit to meet the needs of the communities we serve and help them protect life and property.”
Amherst Alarm’s team of highly skilled staff will continue to serve customers in New York led by the Creenans.
