Pye-Barker Fire & Safety announced the acquisition of AlarmTech, a Pacific Northwest provider of security, fire alarm, access control and video surveillance systems.

Located just north of Seattle in Mountlake Terrace, Wash., AlarmTech services businesses and commercial customers with design, installation, maintenance, inspections and 24-hour emergency monitoring.

“At AlarmTech, we take great pride in providing a vital service that protects our neighbors and community,” said AlarmTech President Richard McCurdy. “Joining Pye-Barker — which has grown to be the premier acquirer in our industry while maintaining a small business feel in each community it serves — just makes sense. We’re able to offer enhanced safety services to care for our existing and new customers.”

AlarmTech’s highly skilled team will continue to serve customers in Washington, backed by Pye-Barker’s resources and support.

“Pye-Barker hit No. 8 on this year’s SDM 100 by investing in teams like that at AlarmTech, those who know their customer base and are trusted and well-respected,” said Bart Proctor, CEO at Pye-Barker. “By joining with Pye-Barker, AlarmTech can provide customers with full fire-code compliance through our existing fire protection services in the Seattle metro, which will benefit AlarmTech’s company growth, employee opportunities and customer satisfaction.”

Pye-Barker operates more than 200 locations nationwide.
