The Beginning
About him
Work Experience
His Passion
A graduate of Brigham Young University-Idaho with a degree in construction management, Adam Schanz is a business executive and entrepreneur who founded a home security company, Alder Home Protection, in 2008. Since establishing Alder Home Protection, Mr. Schanz has scaled its operations from a small business to one of the top 10 full-service, privately owned alarm companies in the United States, attaining double-digit growth every year along the way.
As a young child, he would offer to perform yard services and other chores for neighbors in exchange for payment. As a teenager, he started a window-washing business called Squeegee Brothers. The enterprise was so successful that it funded his and his brother's college education and church mission trips. He accepted a position as president of sales for Silverline Security, finding further success in this role as one of the top salesmen and managers in the industry.
“People Are Our Priority” and “Only Your Best” is Guidestones for employees on how the company does business. Outside of his professional life, Mr. Schanz is a family-oriented man with a wife and five young children. Through his church, he completed two years of missionary service in South Africa, where he enjoyed teaching and serving the local people.
Where did it all began!
Adam Schanz, the founder of Alder, established Alarm Protection Technology in 2008 and began offering services in Utah, Louisiana, Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Florida.
In 2011, they dropped the "Technology" and renamed to Alarm Protection. The name didn't stick, however, which is why in the same year, they changed their name to Alder.
