Minuteman Security & Life Safety Expands New York Presence with Acquisition of Life Safety Integrated Systems
Minuteman Security & Life Safety, the 2025 SDM Systems Integrator of the Year and one of North America’s fastest-growing security and life safety integrators, today announced the acquisition of Life Safety Integrated Systems Inc., a leading systems integrator based in Buffalo, New York.
This strategic acquisition of LSIS expands Minuteman’s geographic footprint across New York State, strengthening the company’s ability to serve both existing and new customers with local expertise and faster response times.
“Bringing LSIS into the Minuteman family allows us to better support our customers across New York State with the same level of partnership, innovation, and reliability they’ve come to expect,” said Ron Oetjen, President of Minuteman Security & Life Safety. “It’s not only about expanding our reach, it’s about investing in the incredible talent LSIS has built and aligning our combined strengths to deliver even greater value to our customers.”
In business for over 2 decades, LSIS has earned a strong reputation for high-quality service, technical expertise, and long-term client relationships across multiple industries. The integration of LSIS into Minuteman strengthens the company’s ability to provide end-to-end solutions in security, fire, and life safety systems, ranging from design and installation to service and support.
Jeremy McAfee, President of LSIS, added: “Joining Minuteman opens a new chapter for LSIS, one where our team gains the resources, scale, and support to continue doing what we do best: delivering exceptional service and innovative solutions. We’re excited to be part of a company that shares our commitment to people, customers, and community.”
With the addition of LSIS, Minuteman strengthens its strategic footprint across the Northeast and expands its growing national presence, now reaching into Texas and beyond. This continued expansion, driven by a series of acquisitions, has fueled more than 300% growth over the past two years. The company remains true to its mission: to protect people, property, and peace of mind while building one of the most trusted and comprehensive integration networks in the nation.
