Pye-Barker Fire & Safety, a fully integrated and full-service fire protection, life safety and security services provider in the United States, has acquired Lifeline Fire & Security, a proactive video monitoring company in Hawaii ranked No. 43 on the 2025 SDM 100. This addition will be the first location in Hawaii for Pye-Barker, which now has a presence in 47 U.S. states.

“Proactive video monitoring is the future of security,” said Todd Bedford, co-owner, Lifeline Fire & Security. “We’re grateful to be part of Pye-Barker, where we can deliver our life-saving security solutions to more communities while being part of something bigger. As part of Pye-Barker’s integrated life safety services and family-like culture, our support for customers and team can only grow.”

Bart Proctor, CEO, Pye-Barker, said, “Adding Lifeline’s expert team to the Pye-Barker family marks an important step in the growth of our company while allowing us to offer our customers expanded, cutting-edge protection with an entrepreneurial team that shares our people-first values. Entering the proactive video monitoring space reflects our continued growth as we embrace the latest technology to enhance safety. Now in our 47th state, I’m humbled by the dedication of our team and the impact we're making across the country.”

Lifeline’s skilled technicians and full team will continue to serve customers in Hawaii. Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, LLP represented Pye-Barker in the transaction.
