System Integrators
Every now and then we take time to remind ourselves how we started, how far we’ve come, and pay tribute to our founder, Keith Ladd who passed in 2009.
Keith was a veteran security industry leader, our founder and CEO. He started this business along with his wife, Mary in 1975. The company has since grown to be consistently ranked one of the top 10 security integrators in the Mid-Atlantic region with headquarters and a central monitoring station in Exton, PA. and offices in South Plainfield, NJ, DE and Richmond, VA.
Ladd was instrumental in the founding and a past president of the Eastern Pennsylvania Burglar and Fire Alarm Association and was an active member of ASIS, NSCA and NBFAA, among many other security industry organizations.
J. Matthew Ladd, president of The Protection Bureau, said his father will be remembered for his kind and generous spirit and a willingness to serve his community and strong business ethics.
“We are grateful for the way he enriched our lives,” he said.
