Linear Now a CCTV Player With Latest Acquisition
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Linear LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nortek, has added to its security industry presence with the acquisition of video surveillance provider Aigis Mechtronics of Winston-Salem, N.C.
Linear specializes in radio frequency (RF)-based alarm monitoring components for residential and commerical markets. “We are excited about the addition of CCTV capability to our security products mix,” says Linear Chairman Grant Rummell. “Aigis will make us much more comprehensive and appealing in the marketplace.”
The Aigis product line breaks down into three major categories: video capture (enclosures, integrated camera/housing packages, and pan/tilt/zoom mechanisms); video display (monitors and flat screen CCTV displays with built-in cameras); and engineered full-height security turnstiles.
Plans call for Aigis to continue at its Winston-Salem facility and to maintain and expand the Aigis brands.
