Meet the Business Owner

Tim C.

Business Owner

Tim Creenan started in the electronic security field in 1975 working for a large locally owned security firm. He performed various jobs including central station dispatcher, installer, and service technician. That company was eventually sold and Tim pursued a degree in Electronic Engineering at State University College at Buffalo. After graduating in 1982, Tim continued in the electronic security field with another company until he and his wife, Maryann founded Amherst Alarm, Inc in 1984.

Dedicated to serve the Western New York area, the company began with a small efficient staff that included Tim, Maryann and a part time installer. Tim handled the sales, service and supervised the installations while Maryann managed the administrative side of the business. Today Amherst Alarm has over 50 employees, 22 are installers and/​or service techs, all of whom have been factory trained by the security manufacturers that supply us with products.
