General company
Earlier this year, Capital Security Systems, Gardner Security and State Digital Security all amalgamated into parent company, Christie Intruder Alarms Ltd.
This makes us the largest independent security company in the UK, and you will benefit from the premium service that is synonymous with the CIA brand.
Here are some reassuring facts about this change:
Who are Christie Intruder Alarms?
Christie Intruder Alarms was established in the late 1960s by Barrie and Janet Christie. Under their ownership and management, CIA has become the most recognised and well respected security brand in the UK.
Why the change?
Barrie and Janet Christie have secured the future for customers and staff alike by merging all the subsidiaries under the CIA brand.
Who owns Christie Intruder Alarms now?
The company is still owned by the Christie family, and members of the family continue to work for Christie Intruder Alarms. The staff have been empowered by a new share bonus scheme which guarantees that CIA will remain the strongest independent brand in the security industry.
What does the change mean for me as an ex- Capital, Gardner or State Digital Customer?
The only change you should notice is the change in name on any correspondence from us.
