Pye-Barker Fire & Safety acquired ABC Burglar Alarm Systems, which services security and alarm systems in Maryland and Virginia. The company will work with Pye-Barker’s existing branch locations in the Washington, D.C., and Baltimore areas to support ongoing service, maintenance, inspections and monitoring for commercial customers. 

ABC Burglar Alarm provides security and fire alarm systems, integrated fire sprinkler systems, access control, video surveillance, remote operation and 24/7 central monitoring. Based in Bowie, Md., ABC Burglar Alarm has been family-owned and operated since 1952. 

“For 70 years, the ABC Burglar Alarm team has been taking care of our community, being the eyes and ears to ensure our customers are protected. This partnership with Pye-Barker enhances our ability to take care of everyone around us, because the leadership at Pye-Barker genuinely cares about our community,” said Donald Webber, president and co-owner at ABC. 

Co-owner David Webber added, “I'm looking forward to a lot of growth ahead for the company and our employees, and to adding new services to help us better protect our friends and neighbors.” 

The experienced and skilled team at ABC Burglar Alarm will continue to serve customers in the Mid-Atlantic region. 

“ABC Burglar Alarm — a well-trusted, full-service detection company — plays an important role in the lives of their customers. I’m proud that ABC Burglar now represents the Pye-Barker brand,” said Bart Proctor, CEO at Pye-Barker. “Pye-Barker's goal is to keep our teams local, where they’ll make the greatest impact for their communities, backed by Pye-Barker's support.”
