Founded in 1993, the company provides residential and commercial services, including video surveillance, access control, audiovisual systems, and home automation.

History

HS Technology Group originated as Homesafe Security Systems, founded in 1993. In 1996, the company became an authorized ADT dealer, installing more than 3,000 systems in its first year.

In 2007, the company relocated from Hunt Valley, Maryland, to a new facility, citing growth in its high-end custom systems business.[1]

In 2012, Homesafe merged with Questron, forming HS Technology Group. The merger expanded the company’s operations into Delaware, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C., and added approximately 6,000 customer accounts.[2]
