Hoosier Security Acquires Competitor Fidelity Building Protection and Management Systems

LAWRENCE, Ind. — Hoosier Security announces it acquired local competitor Fidelity Build Protection on July 1. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Hoosier Security, based here with additional offices in Michigan, has made the local community safer by completing security projects at community businesses like low cost spay and neuter clinics, local libraries, and Indianapolis Public Safety Foundation, according to the announcement.

The acquisition by Hoosier Security is said to create a larger technician pool and technical training capacities to support continued growth, as well as seasoned administration for Fidelity resulting in greater support and customer satisfaction.

Fidelity Founder Ben Johnson says he isn’t going anywhere and is excited to join the Hoosier Security team. “This transition allows me to continue working with Fidelity’s customers on a regular basis. Hoosier Security President Armando Perez and I have had many meetings to ensure that our companies’ values and goals are aligned. I believe joining forces is the best way to forge ahead in growth, while still ensuring the quality of product we strive to provide our customers.”

Founded in 2014, Fidelity offers access control, video surveillance, intrusion/burglar alarms and intercom system services for commercial and residential security needs.

Hoosier Security says the coming weeks will be spent working to ensure a smooth transition, as well as integrate Fidelity’s clients into the Hoosier family. A combined effort between the two companies will ensure that all jobs currently in progress will be completed. Systems currently under warranty will continue to be guaranteed by Hoosier Security.

“Our goal is always to protect more people and places, as well as have a positive impact on the lives of our clients. Joining forces with Ben and Fidelity helps us to do so,” Perez says.

Top 10 Security Stories From October 2021: China Ban Gains Steam, Vivint Countersues ADT

October saw its fair share of legal issues and acquisitions. This month, lawsuits involved home security companies, a gunshot detection provider and even a media company. Vivint Smart Home is seeking retribution for the lawsuit ADT filed against it last year that alleged Vivint salespeople go to ADT customers’ homes, get them to sign Vivint contracts and install the company’s alarm systems in their homes under false pretenses. Vivint had requested a motion to have that lawsuit dismissed, but when the judge denied the motion, Vivint launched a countersuit claiming it is in fact ADT that is deceiving and stealing its customers.

Vice has been critical about ShotSpotter’s technology in a multitude of articles. Though not a lawsuit, Dahua and Hikvision continue to feel pressure from the U.S. government as it considers a new measure that would make it imp

STEARNS COUNTY, Minn. — Bring Me the News reports that Minnesota’s Attorney General, Keith Ellison, says he’s gotten consumers in Stearns County out of home security contracts after they were misled by a door-to-door salesman. According to the report, Ellison’s office announced that home security companies Skyline Security Management and Safe Home Security have agreed to their cancel contracts with customers in and around Stearns County who purchased their systems from door-to-door salesman Gary Harvey. “Door-to-door salesmen and their employers are in the business of trust-building,” Ellison said in a statement. “They know they need to have your trust to sell you their products, particularly expensive products like security systems that are supposed to keep your home safe. When that trust is betrayed, it’s emotionally and financially painful. I appreciate Skyline and Safe Home taking the right step in canceling these contracts while my office does what we can under the law to hold M
