Doyle Security acquires Watertown firm

Rochester’s Doyle Security Systems Inc. has expanded its reach to Watertown with the acquisition of STAT Communications. Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed.

Doyle is the largest family-owned provider of residential and commercial security, fire and medical monitoring systems in New York state. STAT is a privately held company founded in Watertown in the 1950s. The firm’s 3,800 security accounts and 1,200 medical monitoring accounts now will be monitored by Doyle Security’s emergency response center, while service and installation work will continue to be provided by STAT team members who will be joining the Doyle team.

Doyle also will retain STAT Communications’ Watertown office and 22 staffers, including company CEO Bruce Morgia and Vice President Travis Morgia. The office is the ninth for Doyle.

“STAT Communications is a highly successful family business managed by the Morgia and Dawley families for more than 50 years,” said Doyle Security President and CEO John Doyle Jr. “We are very fortunate to have Bruce Morgia and his team joining forces with us. Together we will be able to provide even better security to more homes and businesses in Central and Northern New York and beyond.”

Last year, Doyle Security acquired Austin Security in Olean and Hart Alarm in Albany. Owned and operated since 1919, Doyle Security services more than 40,000 residential and commercial customers statewide and in Pennsylvania.

Doyle Security acquires two firms

Rochester’s Doyle Security Systems Inc. has expanded its reach with the acquisition of two security companies.

Doyle, the largest provider of residential and commercial security, fire and medical monitoring systems in Upstate, Western and Central New York, has acquired 4,000 alarm accounts from Hart Alarm of Albany, N.Y. The customer base features a mix of roughly 70 percent resident and 30 percent commercial accounts. Ten former Hart employees will join Doyle as the business combines with Doyle’s existing office in Albany.

Doyle also has acquired 450 alarm accounts from Austin Locksmithing & Security Inc. in Olean, Cattaraugus County. Austin Locksmithing was founded in 1972 and provides commercial and residential security services to Olean, Cattaraugus, Allegany, McKean and Potter counties, as well as the Southern Tier and Northwestern Pennsylvania. Two employees will join Doyle during the merger.

“We are incredibly excited to team up with the employees and customers of these two exceptional companies. Both the Hart family in Albany and the Austin and Barie families in Olean have developed terrific customer and employee relationships. We are proud to carry on their respective traditions of providing quality service and being great paces to work,” said Doyle Security President and CEO John Doyle Jr.

The mergers mark Doyle’s third and fourth acquisitions of 2020, having previously acquired Titan Security in Syracuse and Eltec Security in Geneva.

Doyle is a family-owned company that was founded in 1919. The company services more than 50,000 residential and commercial customers statewide and in Pennsylvania.
