Matson Alarm History
A Legacy of Trust and Innovation
Our Journey: From a Garage in Fresno to a Thriving Legacy
In the heart of Fresno, California, a dream took shape in 1974. Brothers Mike and Larry Matson started a small alarm business in their father's garage. What began as a modest venture, fueled by ambition and hard work, evolved into a leading security company. Over 40 years, Matson Alarm grew from a garage operation to a large-scale enterprise, employing over 160 individuals and securing the trust of over 20,000 subscribers.
