Our history
For 20 years, creating safer environments has been at the core of how we attain our purpose and fulfill the need for a true commercial security integration company.
The beginnings of Security 101 go back to 2003. Since that time, our unique and sophisticated approach attracted success and rapid growth, grabbing the attention of industry leaders, which led to inquiries about expansion into other states.
In 2007, Security Franchisors, LLC was created as a franchising model by veterans Jim Pasquarello and Steve Crespo, in an effort to maintain, stabilize, and intensify the outstanding growth rate Security 101 was experiencing. Our corporate headquarters remain in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Our network of offices continues to expand thanks to an unparalleled business model that delivers solutions to satisfy the most demanding projects and offers the advantages of a smaller integrator, by resorting to our local roots and heritage, while supplying the efficacy, professionalism, and experience of a trusted national integrator.
Our mission
We have a clear mission: to help you create the safest environment possible, wherever you are located, with our accessible, comprehensive, state-of-the-art solutions, local support, exceptional customer experience, and global reach.

We are a team united in our purpose to keep your site protected and grant you peace of mind 24/7 through the power of three constructive core values.
Fanatical Customer Service
Our first principle is to offer each of our clients excessive enthusiasm, intense devotion, attentive listening, and effective solutions. We understand your pain points, speak your language, and always go beyond the call of duty to exceed your expectations.

Our team of dedicated security experts always demonstrates integrity by being honest, consistent, and treating others with respect.

What our customers say about us
As a high school principal, my main goal is always to protect my students and staff. Security 101 listened to our concerns and problems we had with our former security integrator and installed a touchless access control system across our large campus that is perfect for us. Now, our school community feels safer than ever.
