Graybar, St. Louis, is working with GE Security to distribute its package of security products and solutions.

Graybar will carry GE Security video surveillance, intrusion, access control and fiber-optic systems. These solutions are designed to work together to simplify installation for integrators and contractors, and to provide a complete, end-to-end system for commercial, industrial and institutional end-users. In addition, Graybar carries GE lighting solutions, signaling products from the GE division of Edwards and fiber optic systems from the GE division.

According to Mike Dumas, Graybar vice president-Comm/Data business, the addition of GE Security is one of the most significant enhancements Graybar has made to its expanding portfolio of security solutions since entering the security market in 2004. Graybar stocks security solutions throughout its distribution network of more than 250 North American locations.

“We are proud to offer our customers GE Security solutions,” said Mike Dumas. “Being able to install an integrated security solution is a priority for our customers, and it’s the primary reason we sought out a business relationship with GE Security. Now, our employee-owners are offering our customers even more choice and convenience when we help them evaluate, select and implement their security solutions.”

The business relationship between Graybar and GE dates back to 1896 when the supply division of Western Electric began distributing GE lamps.
