Our Founding Story
In 1978, James B. Mason founded Berkley Security with a simple mission: to provide reliable, trustworthy security solutions to homes and businesses in the Vicksburg area. What began as a small, family-operated company has grown into one of the most respected security providers in Mississippi and Louisiana.
From day one, Mr. Mason believed that security isn't just about equipment—it's about people. He built his company on principles of integrity, personalized service, and genuine care for customers. Those values continue to guide us today, nearly five decades later.
Today, while we've grown to serve communities across multiple states with modern, cutting-edge security systems, we remain true to our roots. Our Vicksburg headquarters still serves as the heart of our operations, and we continue to treat every customer like family.
