About

ProTech Security, with more than 40 years of service in Northeast Ohio, and over 20 years of service in Central Florida, brings years of combined security expertise to every home, business, school, and government facility within our local communities.

Indeed, it was the safety and security of our local communities that was the original foundation the company was built upon, as is recalled by ProTech Security founder Dan McKimm:

“The security and well-being of our communities is our primary concern at ProTech Security. Our role is to provide a wide range of solutions and tailor them to each individual need. Anyone can sell alarms and cameras, but our purpose is to provide our communities with safer, smarter security using the integration of technology.”

Our Philosophy as a Security Solutions Provider

As a full-service security solutions provider, ProTech Security continues to adhere to that founding directive and to the philosophy: “No one company can be all things to all people and be good at it.” It’s why rather than be distracted by lots of low-voltage services, ProTech Security’s focus remains fixed on providing the best and most affordable security solutions possible.

The ProTech Security Advantage also includes a forward-looking philosophy that centers on the latest in IP (Internet Protocol) technology and IT (Information Technology), which is built with dynamic, non-proprietary systems. In that continued pursuit, ProTech Security announced a merger with Viking Security Systems, Inc. — effective May 31, 2021 — that will allow both to further their missions of becoming a leading provider of security solutions moving forward under the ProTech Security brand.

Improving our Security Solutions With Our Strategic Merger with Viking Security

ProTech Security was originally founded in North Canton, Ohio in 1981 and focused on providing engineering, installation, and integration of customized security solutions for residential, commercial, industrial, and governmental entities.

Viking Security on the other end, founded in Orlando, Florida in 2001, specializes in access control and video surveillance solutions for commercial and governmental customers.
“Not only does the Viking Security acquisition allow ProTech Security to expand into a dynamic geographical market, but it also allows us to grow our talent and expertise in new product lines,” said Eric McKimm, Vice President, ProTech Security.

Promoting peace of mind with reliable, proven, and effective security solutions has, and will continue to be the biggest part of the ProTech Security Advantage and continued vision.
