Absolute Systems of Kansas City, Mo., recently acquired Eclipse Integration Peculiar, Mo., for undisclosed terms. 

Alarm Financial Services (AFS) provided financing for the transaction. This purchase positions Absolute for continued expansion in the Kansas City metropolitan market, according to an announcement. 

Absolute Systems, led by Scotty Rhoads, provides residential and commercial security solutions in Kansas City, Houston and San Antonio. The acquisition of Eclipse builds out Absolute’s commercial account base and presence in Kansas City in particular.   

“Acquiring Eclipse allows Absolute Systems to expand its customer base, offering new clients our commitment to quality, cutting-edge technology and a family-run business approach,” Rhoads stated. 

Absolute Systems has been installing, designing and servicing commercial and residential security and fire alarm systems since 2009. The company offers custom security solutions with the latest technology and video capabilities. 

This transaction marks the second deal AFS has financed for Rhoads and his team at Absolute, said Jim Wooster, president of AFS.  “We are excited to see them executing on their combined strategy of organic and acquisition growth,” Wooster added. 

AFS provides financing from $150,000 to $1.5  million to small and medium-sized security, fire alarm and personal emergency response system (PERS) companies.
