FAST FACTS

Merik Security is a designer, manufacturer, and distributor of security hardware products that serve a wide variety of residential, industrial, commercial, and institutional applications.

We are utilizing a brand-centric approach that makes operations significantly more convenient in this antiquated (yet lucrative) industry.  Customers can count on the Merik brand name and our wide variety of safes, security hardware, access control systems and more to suit almost any security need. In fact, we are preparing to release a new series of patent pending gun safes and gun vaults poised to disrupt the entire industry.

THE SECURITY LANDSCAPE

Even in our digital age, individuals, businesses, and institutions maintain a pressing need for reliable security hardware.  In fact, the market for it is thriving - thanks in large part to ever-increasing crime, terrorism threats, and tightening government requirements.

The makeup of the security hardware market itself is also changing, as top players have been dramatically consolidated in recent years.  Manufacturing is being seamlessly outsourced to cut costs, to the point where it has virtually ceased to exist in the U.S.

With the industry leaders sourcing elsewhere and focusing exclusively on the bottom line, a variety of additional market pain points are becoming more noticeable:

The market is solid and lucrative - but it is also antiquated.  The door is wide open for a new competitor to step in with a new approach and rapidly ascend.

Guard Your Assets, Conveniently

Enter Merik Security: a new company with a refreshing uniform approach to security hardware. By offering all of our products under one brand name, we are able to deliver the best in customer convenience and pricing without sacrificing our superior quality.

In addition to providing better customer service, this brand consolidation also allows us to streamline our own operations and serve all types of customers under one roof.

Regardless of what a customer’s specific needs are, Merik can deliver with great effectiveness.  We do this by proudly offering a spectrum of residential, commercial,  and institutional security products - including safes, locks, door closers, exit devices, electromagnetic locks, smart wireless alarms, and more.

Our Founder’s two+ decades of experience at the top of the market has us well-positioned to make Merik the new go-to name in security hardware.  The time has come to move this antiquated market forward!

Our Security Savants

Merik was conceptualized by Founder/CEO/Chairman Lawrence Schneider, who started his 25-year career with the creation of the security hardware company U.S. Lock.  It did not take him long to grow the company into an industry leader with 15,000 nationwide customers and 1,100 Authorized Dealers. Today U.S. Lock is a Home Depot company.

Schneider would ultimately spearhead U.S. Lock’s acquisition - giving him unique industry and acquisition experience, and opening the door for another opportunity with Merik Security.  Now he receives key support from the following individuals on our team:

Adam Schneider | General Manager | Years of experience in management information systems, accounting, and purchasing.  CEO’s right hand.

Valerie Vakili | Marketing Manager | Unique insight into reaching our target customers.  Builds and executes our marketing strategies, most notably social media.

Kim Scott | National Sales Manager | 25+ years of sales and marketing experience, including Director of Sales for an industry-leading security hardware manufacturer/distributor. Detail oriented with expertise in customer care and product knowledge which is expected to result in exceptional service.

Louis Nerys | Safe & Vault Technologies Manager | Two decades of exemplary sales and service in the safe industry. Technical expertise. Ready to train new Merik Safe and Vault Authorized Dealers.
