Security gear boom fuels rise in home protection
Albert Janjigian fronts a Boston firm betting on rising demand for electronic security systems as crime concerns push a $25 billion industry. At a major expo, firms showcase infrared, seismic, and laser sensors, with prices from about $400, while traditional rivals adapt to a high tech market. Major players like AT&T, Sony, RCA, Hitachi, Kodak, JVC, and Sanyo enter the field. Pinkerton’s private security firm expands into tech, and smaller shops like Bell Glass & Mirror showcase security mirrors.
