RICHMOND, Va. — Richmond Alarm, based here, has acquired Becker & Ellington Security Systems of Midlothian, Va., for undisclosed terms.
The transaction is the second Richmond Alarm has made in the past year, according to a press release.

“We have known Richmond Alarm for decades and have the utmost respect for them and their operation,” says Randy Ellington, president of Becker & Ellington. “Our values and customer first mentality match perfectly with the goals of the Richmond Alarm team.”
Becker & Ellington and Richmond Alarm have been in close partnership for more than 20 years as Becker & Ellington already utilizes Richmond Alarm’s monitoring center.
