Signals Defense, a leading provider of RF/IR shielding solutions and other products, has been acquired by Lockmasters, Inc., a multi-faceted organization that provides commercial and government solutions and technical support through education, tools and product innovation.

“Signals Defense perfectly complements Lockmasters’ government products and training,” says Deron Simpson, Signals Defense Founder. “Lockmasters’ revolutionary LKM10K and Original STC/RF Door-in-a-Box are the leading solutions for SCIF / SAPF facilities, and its ICD-705 training courses assist customers in proper construction and materials.

Going forward, our combined expertise and product suite will create tremendous value for our loyal customer base.”

Lockmasters serve the commercial and government sectors through conventional hardware distribution across multiple distribution centers, education programs, and tool and product innovation beyond traditional distribution. Founded in 1955, Lockmasters operates distribution centers in Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina and Texas.

Signals Defense is a premiere RF/IR shielding solutions provider, offering RF window film and other products that meet the most stringent government standards to ensure secure work environments. Its product portfolio consists of RF/IR window films, architectural window films, glass and polycarbonate laminates, adhesives and other building products. Signals Defense is the de facto written standard for the U.S. government and other organizations that want to properly secure buildings that handle sensitive and/or classified information. Signals Defense films meet TEMPEST requirements for Intelligence Community Directive (ICD/ICS705) and Department of Defense Infrared and Radio Frequency Emanation Protection Standards.
