ADT Commercial, AlarmSouth Roll to SAMMY Award Win for Vehicle Graphics

One of the most opportunistic ways a security dealer can make a great first impression on potential customers is through their fleet aesthetics and messaging.

Just think about how many times drivers end up behind integration company vans or the amount of looking around while waiting at traffic lights (when not checking phones). This year, ADT Commercial and AlarmSouth impressed the SAMMY judges with their vehicle wrapping, resulting in a category tie. 

That means the companies share the honor for Best Vehicle Graphics Design in SSI’s 2023 Sales & Marketing Awards, better known to most of our readers as the SAMMY Awards. This is one of three SAMMYs won by ADT Commercial this year.

Different Tactics, Same Successful Fleet Feats

Statesville, N.C.-based AlarmSouth recently redesigned its vehicle wraps to match a new tagline: Protecting the Carolinas. The most notable piece of the design is a tribute to one of AlarmSouth’s first and most tenured employees, Sam Jordan, who provided over 50 years of service with the company.  

“Sam, unfortunately, lost a battle with cancer in 2021. Sam’s first and only job was at AlarmSouth, where he perfected his craft and helped train countless technicians over the years,” explains Marketing Director Tyler Buchanan. “Each AlarmSouth van has a decal dedicated to Sam, who loved to ride his Harley Davidson. He is forever a part of the AlarmSouth family and rides with every vehicle in our fleet.” 

Right by the logo created for Jordan is also a nod to how long AlarmSouth has protected the Carolinas, with “Est. 1963” placed adjacent to company contact information like phone number and icons representing social channels.

SAMMY Awards

Meanwhile, ADT may have national brand cache, but it realizes the easy marketing play in vehicle graphics.  

“Knowing our vehicles are rolling billboards for our brand, we wanted the main focus to be the ADT Commercial logomark paired with our pillars of service offerings,” says Mallory Pernai, director, marketing communications. “The overall design of the vehicle graphics is meant to communicate forward movement and innovation and to remain an enduring symbol of the trust in our brand on a national scale.”

The Regulatory Landscape for Clinical CCTV in 2026 As we move through 2026, medical and dental practices across the UK face unprecedented scrutiny regarding patient privacy and physical security.

Why Weapons Detection Systems Fail Without Proper Planning

The weapons detection market has exploded over the past three years, driven by heightened security concerns across every vertical market. Healthcare facilities, educational institutions, corporate campuses, and entertainment venues are all investing in advanced weapons screening technology. For security integrators, this represents significant opportunity – and significant risk. Unlike traditional security systems that can be “set and forget,” weapons detection implementations succeed or fail based on factors that extend far beyond technical installation. The difference between a profitable, referral-generating project and a costly support nightmare often comes down to understanding challenges that don’t appear in any technical manual. The False Promise of “Plug and Play” Vendors market their systems as simple to deploy and operate. The reality is more complex. Advanced detection technology may be sophisticated, but successful implementation requires integrators to think beyond netw...
