NASHVILLE, Tenn. – ADS Security (ADS) has added 2,000 new residential and commercial customers to its account base after acquiring Washington, N.C.-based Seaboard Security Systems for an undisclosed amount.

“Adding the state of North Carolina to our service area aligns perfectly with our mission of steady, smart growth across the Southeast,” ADS President and CEO John Cerasuolo says. “We patiently waited for the right opportunity in North Carolina, and Seaboard Security Systems and their outstanding team offered us the ideal entry into this market.”
