Lockmasters Strengthens Security Portfolio with Signals Defense Acquisition

Lockmasters, Inc., a prominent player in the high-security solutions sector, has recently acquired Astic Signals Defenses, LLC, commonly known as Signals Defense. This strategic acquisition is aimed at bolstering Lockmasters’ existing product offerings and enhancing its capabilities in providing advanced security solutions to both government and commercial clients.

Based in Nicholasville, Kentucky, Lockmasters operates under the financial backing of Dominus Capital, L.P., which has been instrumental in expanding the company's growth trajectory. With this latest acquisition, Lockmasters is now set to incorporate Signals Defense's specialized technology in radio frequency (RF) and infrared (IR) shielding solutions. These technologies have established themselves as industry benchmarks for U.S. government agencies and various commercial entities aiming to secure sensitive information from potential wireless threats.

For over 25 years, Signals Defense has been at the forefront of this vital technology, developing proprietary window films that not only meet but exceed the stringent security requirements set forth by various government regulations, including the TEMPEST requirements for ICD-705 and the Department of Defense's standards for Infrared and Radio Frequency Emanation Protection.

The CEO of Lockmasters, Joe McCormack, expressed enthusiasm regarding the acquisition, stating, "We are thrilled to welcome the Signals Defense team to Lockmasters. Together, we will offer an unmatched portfolio of high-security solutions for government and commercial customers. This acquisition reinforces our commitment to innovation and delivering best-in-class security solutions to meet evolving threats, particularly in the realm of data protection."

In addition to enhancing product offerings, the merger allows for synergistic cross-selling opportunities between the established customer bases of both companies. As Eric Kuczynski, President of Signals Defense, remarked, "Our expertise and customer base combined with Lockmasters' extensive reach present a powerful new opportunity for our proprietary shielding technology."

This integration is not merely a merger of technologies but a unification of philosophies with a shared goal of addressing the growing complexity of security requirements in a data-driven age. The threat landscape is evolving rapidly, and as evident from the continual advancements in wireless eavesdropping techniques, the need for robust protective measures has never been more crucial.

The acquisition also stands as the fifth additive acquisition for Lockmasters since its partnership with Dominus Capital, highlighting the investment firm's commitment to fostering growth by acquiring companies that complement Lockmasters’ core operational ethos.

"Since the inception of Signals Defense, we have relentlessly innovated to stay ahead of evolving wireless threats," said Deron Simpson, Founder of Signals Defense. His remarks reflect a shared vision between the two entities, emphasizing not just stability, but growth driven by technological advancements.

Lockmasters is recognized for its proficiency in providing superior locks and locksmithing tools, working with a diverse clientele that includes government sectors, banking, and commercial industries. With the incorporation of Signals Defense's products, Lockmasters will enrich its offerings to include high-grade shielding solutions that protect critical locations managing classified information.

Both companies' headquarters are situated in key strategic locations – Lockmasters in Nicholasville and Signals Defense in Owings Mills, Maryland – allowing them to operate collaboratively while reaching out to various sectors effectively.

As they embark on this new chapter together, Lockmasters and Signals Defense are poised not only to transform their approach to security challenges but also to set new standards within the industry, reinforcing their position as leaders in the realm of high-security solutions.
