Metalex Security Products traces back to 1986, when founder Tom Reimer got locked out of his own home and had to climb in through a basement window to get inside — and realized on the spot just how easy that window would be for anyone else to break through too Tom Reimer established the business in 1986 after a personal experience of having to break into his own home after losing his keys, entering through a vulnerable basement window. He built a metal guard to fix his own vulnerability, then made more for his neighbors, and that’s how the company got its start Tom devised a metal window guard for his windows and, subsequently, half the neighbourhood, and Metalex Security Products was born.
