    Here We Grow Again

    May 11, 2016 – (London, ON) Security ONE Alarm Systems, a super regional electronic security and automation company headquartered in Leamington, ON, has acquired customer accounts from Homematix Systems, Inc. The purchase adds approximately 500 accounts to the Security ONE Southwestern Ontario customer base.
    “Homematix commitment to providing customers with outstanding service makes them a great fit for Security ONE,” says Corey Robertson, Director of Marketing for Security ONE. “They have been serving their community for 43 years, and we are proud to introduce Homematix customers to the local Security ONE team.”
    The purchase of Homematix is the first acquisition for Security ONE this year, following the acquisition of customer accounts from Gladiator Security in Windsor, ON last fall. Security ONE has been active in the acquisition arena and continues to challenge national competitors for local market share. Director of Corporate Strategy, Chris Neumann says, “Our goal is to provide the absolute best technology combined with local monitoring and prompt and courteous service. When it comes to real security – you don’t want to leave that to the cable guy.”
    Robertson notes Homematix customers will have access to the advanced automated and smart home solutions, video surveillance, access control and fire & life safety solutions offered by Security ONE.
    “Most notably Security ONE is the only ULC listed, CSAA Five Diamond Certified monitoring station in Southern Ontario, which offers the secure MySecurityONE online account management portal,” Robertson said.
    Robertson says Security ONE has been transitioning customers. “The Homematix customers have been very receptive to our offerings, especially the GSM Cellular modules”, he said. “They have been very happy knowing that they are being provided with local monitoring now,” Robertson added.
    The purchased accounts will be serviced from the Security ONE/Homematix office at 2237 Wharncliffe Rd. S. in London, ON. Homematix customers are currently being introduced and welcomed to Security ONE.
