About Us
Welcome To The Premier Detention Security Company
Our goal is to offer the best quality, solutions, and service in the industry.
CML Security is an industry leader in security electronics integration, detention equipment installation, service and maintenance, and project consultation. With decades of experience, CML Security has created a reputation for excellence and innovation in the detention security industry. Our team of professionals is well-versed in the latest technologies and techniques, and their commitment to customer service ensures that all projects are completed to the highest standards. Whether you need consultation on a project or installation of your detention security equipment, CML Security is the name you can trust.
Beginning as CML Specialties back in 1987, our Executive Director, Mike Langersmith founded a detention equipment installation company focused primarily on work in the Western United States.
Mike grew the company to be recognized in our industry as the #1 installer of Security Wall Panel Systems and for its trustworthiness and high quality of work. The original CML Specialties field team has been invaluable in laying a foundation for a successful business, and we are fortunate to still have many of them working with us today.
Today, CML Specialties has become CML Security. Through our owners expertise, we have diversified the company’s offerings to be able to provide not only the same high-quality Detention Equipment installation services, but also that of Security Electronics installation, Full System Service, and Preventative Maintenance.
In providing a comprehensive package of services to the Justice and Corrections market in the United States, CML Security regularly works alongside General Contractors and Architects to provide innovative solutions to construction or design issues prior to the execution of a project.
