Established in 1988 by Doug and Sandy Huey, Executive Security Consultants (ESC) provides residential and commercial alarm services in the greater Columbus area. Together, they worked countless hours to ensure they were providing peace of mind to their customers. This acquisition continues this legacy as both companies provide exemplary, personalized customer service, but also have a family-like culture that exists within their teams.

“Guardian Alarm has been serving the Columbus market for many years and we look forward to welcoming the employees and customers of Executive Security Consultants,” said Brent Uhl, President and Chief Executive Officer of Guardian Alarm. “Executive Security Consultants has delivered reliable customer service in the Columbus metro area for over thirty years.

We’ve had a series’s of updates needed due to switching wifi companies. Finally guardian sent Collin K. who was amazing, Knowledgeable and able to solve our problem.
We had other techs out who were unable to resolve our issues and needed to escalate for a senior tech.
Collin I was able to troubleshoot our panels and cameras and Wi-Fi! He knew what At&T needed to change and called with me. Experience was amazing.
Response from the owner:We're thrilled to hear Collin was able to step in, diagnose the problem and get your system running smoothly again. Thank you for recognizing his expertise and for sticking with Guardian Alarm through the process! We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a positive review, Monica!
