Providing security and peace of mind: Behind the Business with Home & Commercial Security, Inc. of Rehoboth, Massachusetts
What started as one man, an idea, and his old telephone truck, has blossomed into a family legacy that has stood the test of time for over 50 years.
Home & Commercial Security, Inc. was founded in 1973 by Henry Sidok Sr., a visionary who recognized the potential of alarm systems when others doubted them. The company has passed down through the generations and is now run by Henry’s grandson, Jason Sidok, who took over as President in 2023.
Home & Commercial Security’s approach is rooted in what Jason describes as “good, old-fashioned service.” Jason’s grandfather believed that a client-first approach was the best way to run his company. He prioritized face-to-face interactions with customers before, during, and after the installation process is complete.
“We still run the company on my grandfather’s philosophy of treating people the way you want to be treated,” Sidok said. “That’s the kind of service we aim to provide so our clients know they can trust us with their homes and businesses. When people speak about my grandfather, there are always glowing reviews of how caring he was, and I want to keep that feeling going.”
Home & Commercial Security offers customized electronic security and alert systems services for both residential and commercial customers. Over the years, the company expanded throughout Rhode Island and southern Massachusetts, serving over 6,000 clients.
Technology has seen the biggest transformation in the security system industry. What began as a basic alarm service has transformed into advanced, technology-powered systems that provide video verification, real-time communication, and enhanced interaction with home and business owners.
“Alarms used to be about making as much noise as you could,” Sidok explained. “But today, it’s all about video and the speed of communication with dispatch and clients.”
This evolution of security technology has brought both challenges and opportunities. As DIY security systems gained popularity, Home & Commercial Security found the need to educate their consumers about the potential pitfalls of do-it-yourself solutions and the benefits of professional installation and monitoring services. Jason and his team address common misconceptions, offering expert advice and fixing anything that may have gone awry.
Technology not only plays a role with the products Home & Commercial Security sells, but internally as well. They have streamlined all of their communication systems to keep technicians and customers up to date in real-time. The company also employs a coordinator who stays up-to-date on the latest industry developments, regulations, licenses, and laws, and ensures that technicians are continuously trained to meet these standards.
“By ensuring each team member is skilled in multiple areas,” Sidok said, “we can deliver faster, more effective solutions to our customers.”
Jason has been with the business for over 30 years, and took over as President from his father in 2021. "My favorite part of running the business is our clients and the fact that no two days are the same," Jason shares. "We operate 24/7, handling both residential and commercial clients, which always keeps things exciting and different."
The Sidok family has played an active role in the community since the company was founded. They have long been involved in local organizations and charitable efforts, and continue to support first responders, schools, food pantries, and youth sports programs. Jason serves on the board as the president of the local baseball/softball club.
"It's all about the people. My family has been connected to this community for decades, and we take pride in continuing that legacy of giving back."
