The company has over 200 locations throughout North America, Puerto Rico, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and India. ADI's inventory includes products such as video surveillance, building access control, home intrusion, fire safety, and alarm systems as well as professional and residential audio/video (AV) equipment such as commercial speakers and video displays, networking equipment, data communications solutions, tools, wire, cabling, and more.[1]
ADI headquarters are located in Melville, New York.[2] ADI became a division of Ademco Inc., a subsidiary of the Honeywell spin-off Resideo Technologies, Inc. in 2018.[3]
History
In 1929, New York-based hardware store owner Maurice Coleman founded the Alarm Device Manufacturing Company, or ADEMCO, to build custom alarm systems for local businesses.[4] In 1960, the company went public.
In 1963, ADEMCO was acquired by the Pittsburgh Railway Company, retaining the ADEMCO name to market its security and fire protection products. In 1967, Pittsburgh Railway Company renamed itself Pittway.[4]
Throughout the 1980s, Pittway/ADEMCO acquired other companies, forming ADEMCO Distribution to sell its expanded product line. In 1987, ADEMCO Distribution was renamed ADI.
Honeywell acquired Pittway/ADI in 2000 to expand its footprint in home and building control.[5] In 2006, Honeywell purchased Gardiner Groupe Europe, a distributor of closed-circuit TV (CCTV) systems, fire alarm, intrusion alarm, access control, public address, and integrated systems to bolster ADI's presence in Europe.[6] Honeywell followed this up in 2007 by acquiring Burtek, a British Columbia-based distributor of low-voltage products for commercial and residential audio, burglar and fire alarm, CCTV, access control, and data communications, thus expanding ADI's presence in Canada.[7]
In 2018, Honeywell spun off ADI, along with its home heating, ventilation, air conditioning controls and security manufacturing businesses into Resideo Technologies Inc. On October 29, 2018, Resideo commenced regular way trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker REZI.[8]
Products and Services
ADI offers approximately 350,000 low-voltage electronics and related products related to access control and communications, residential AV, pro AV, communications, data communications, fire, intrusion and smart home, networking, power, structured wiring, video surveillance, and wire and cable.[9] ADI's product portfolio includes major brands such as LG, Sony, Axis Communications, and Sonos. Additionally, ADI sells products under three private labels: Capture, UltraTech, and W Box Technologies.[10]
ADI also offers a variety of services that focus on the installer/reseller market. The company's offerings include device programming, remote monitoring for network devices, cybersecurity solutions, labor subcontracting for AV installations, systems design, and training/continuing education services.[11][12]
ADI requires prospective customers to register as members to purchase its products.[13]
Locations
ADI Global has branch locations in most major U.S. metropolitan areas and several mid-sized cities, with a total of 100 U.S. stores as of 2021.[14] ADI has a location in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and nine locations in Canada.[15]
ADI has locations throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, with stores in Great Britain, Ireland, Sweden, France, Spain, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, the United Arab Emirates, South Africa, and India.[16]
ADI maintains multiple e-commerce sites to serve its global markets. In 2014, the company launched its first retail mobile app.[17] In 2021, ADI released a new version of its mobile app, featuring improved functionality and an enhanced design.[18]
Acquisitions and Partnerships
In 2020, ADI's parent company Resideo acquired Herman Electronics, Inc., a distributor of AV products, known as Herman ProAV, along with its service business Herman Integrated Services, LLC., , to be part of ADI.[19] In 2021, the company acquired Norfolk Wire and Electronics, a data communications company, and a second AV company, Shoreview Distribution, to also be part of ADI.[20][21]
In October 2021, ADI announced an integration deal with D-Tools business management software and D-Tools Cloud and System Integrator.[22]
In June 2021, ADI expanded its portfolio and began offering Defendify, a cybersecurity solution.[23]
In January 2017, ADI and Hanwha Techwin, a video surveillance company, formed a strategic alliance.[24]
