PITTSBURGH – Guardian Protection recently announced the acquisition of approximately 6,000 customer accounts from Chorus SmartSecure, LLC, a privately owned company based in Birmingham, Ala., that has operated since 2019.

Chorus has locations in Texas (formerly operating as BSG) and in Alabama, where it installs monitored residential and commercial security systems.

In the coming months, Chorus customers “will transition seamlessly from Chorus’ third-party monitoring center to Guardian’s U.L.-certified, Five Diamond accredited monitoring facilities and in-house customer services,” according to the joint announcement.

As part of this agreement, Chorus will continue to serve its markets as an authorized Guardian Protection dealer, creating a partnership approach that combines Chorus’ local sales, marketing and operations expertise with Guardian’s national scale, in-house monitoring capabilities and customer support resources.

Why Did Guardian Protection Acquire Chorus SmartSecure?

The acquisition of Chorus SmartSecure will grow Guardian’s presence in Austin and San Antonio and help expand Guardian’s brand to Alabama. This acquisition marks the fifth for Guardian since 2021 and plans are underway to continue its strategy, according to the joint announcement.

“We have been very thoughtful and deliberate with our acquisition approach, focusing on opportunities that complement our account base and provide us strategic opportunities for continued growth. I expect to continue pursuing acquisition opportunities that make sense for us,” says Guardian president Bryan Cipoletti in the announcement.

“From the beginning, our aim has been to deliver ‘Smart Security, Made Simple.’ with a focus on a strong customer experience,” says Rob Hardman, Chorus SmartSecure president, in the joint announcement. “This partnership with Guardian maximizes that commitment and brings additional scale, resources and monitoring expertise that align with our commitment to bring harmony to the lives of our customers.

“We’re grateful to continue serving our expanding market as an authorized Guardian security provider and prepared to support a smooth, coordinated transition for every customer,” he says.

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...
