Zeus Fire and Security (Zeus), a portfolio company of Baltimore-based Access Holdings, announced its acquisition of ClearLine Networks LLC, a provider of security solutions and structured cabling based in Nashville.

ClearLine will join forces with Zeus partner Gallaher to further the Zeus mission of protecting people, property and profits, and expanding further into Tennessee and the Southeastern U.S.

“The addition of ClearLine marks another exciting step forward for Zeus and Gallaher as we continue to strengthen our presence in Tennessee and the broader Southeast,” said Brandon Ramsey, president and chief operating officer, Zeus Fire and Security, “ClearLine’s strong reputation, technical expertise and customer-first approach align perfectly with Gallaher’s culture and our mission to protect people, property and profits. Together, we’re building a stronger network of local leaders who deliver exceptional service backed by the scale and innovation of the Zeus platform.”

Founded in 2008, ClearLine specializes in the design and installation of integrated security solutions as well as voice and data cabling for organizations across Nashville, Chattanooga and the surrounding regions.

“We’re excited for ClearLine to join Gallaher and Zeus,” said Terry Catignani, co-owner, ClearLine Networks LLC. “This partnership allows us to combine our local expertise and customer-first approach with Zeus’s resources and scale. Together, we’ll continue delivering the same trusted service our clients know, while expanding opportunities to innovate and protect across the communities we serve.”

Brad Johnson, co-owner, ClearLine Networks LLC, said, “Becoming part of the Gallaher and Zeus Fire and Security network represents a pivotal moment for ClearLine. Zeus’s mission of protecting people, property and profits aligns perfectly with our own commitment to providing exceptional service. Together, we’ll be able to offer even greater resources, innovation and support to our customers.”

With the integration of ClearLine, Gallaher expands its reach and resources across Tennessee, strengthening its ability to deliver best-in-class safety and security solutions. Together, the two companies will leverage Zeus Fire and Security’s national platform, expanded product portfolio and shared commitment to protecting people, property and profits.
