The alarm industry in Arkansas lost a valued member and Guard Tronic lost a friendly rival last Monday, August 1, 2022.
Doug Harp founded Harp Security in Hot Springs after serving as the Colonel of the Arkansas State Police from 1975 to 1981.  He and our own President Dave Gilbert worked together to start the Arkansas Security Alarm Association and helped shape the licensing law in the state. There was always great respect between the two companies and between the gentlemen owners.
Over the last year, our two companies have become closer, and we grew to know Doug Harp even better. He was a great storyteller, a competent alarm guy, an avid hunter, and a true family man.
Our prayers are with Colonel Harp’s family and employees.
