Under the deal, Doyle Security’s emergency response center will monitor STAT’s 3,800 security accounts and 1,200 medical-monitoring accounts. STAT employees, who will be joining Doyle, will continue to provide service and installation work.

“STAT Communications is a highly successful family business managed by the Morgia and Dawley families for more than 50 years,” John Doyle, Jr. president and CEO of Doyle Security, said in a statement. “We are very fortunate to have Bruce Morgia and his team joining forces with us. Together, we will be able to provide even better security to more homes and businesses in Central and Northern New York and beyond.”
Family owned and operated since 1919, Doyle Security Systems services more than 40,000 residential and commercial customers across New York and Pennsylvania, per its release.
