Sciens Bolsters Mid-Atlantic Presence With Anchor Fire Protection Buy

SAN FRANCISCO — Sciens Building Solutions announces it has added Perkiomenville, Penn.-based Anchor Fire Protection to its growing portfolio of companies.

This latest acquisition from Sciens is said to help expand the company’s presence in the Pennsylvania and mid-Atlantic market, while providing Anchor and its customers with even deeper resources and expertise, as well as the ability to leverage Sciens’ growing footprint across North America.

“We couldn’t be more pleased to become a part of Sciens with its outstanding technical expertise and geographic reach,” says Ted Wills, president of Anchor Fire Protection. “I chose Sciens because they have a very successful track record with the companies they have acquired and they allow those companies to keep doing the things that have made them successful, while maintaining their cultures. This is a phenomenal growth opportunity, and we look forward to partnering with existing Sciens companies in our region.”

Anchor Fire Protection was established in 1978 and has since positioned itself as the premier fire-life safety company across several industries, according to the company.

“Anchor is a great fit to the outstanding reputation we have already established across the middle Atlantic states,” says Terry Heath, Sciens CEO. “With Anchor’s excellent capabilities, we can continue our exciting growth trajectory in this region and further expand our presence in this important market. Our desire to actively seek partnerships with companies similar to Anchor that align with the Sciens values and superior service offerings remains strong, and we’re looking forward to the future.”

The deal marks the second acquisition for Sciens this month following its purchase of Absolute Protective Systems just last week.

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 ho...
