(PRWEB) May 7, 2007 -- Digitech International announces the selection of Alex Lekas to lead the company's Southeastern team in assisting customers with their access control and security needs.

Digitech, through its network of Reseller and Installer partners, distributes access control and security systems that provide what the company calls World Class Security Solutions for owners and operators in the self-storage industry.

Alex brings extensive experience with high tech firms from the technical services arena to the self-storage industry. Prior to joining Digitech, Alex oversaw corporate communications and marketing efforts for a global Internet Services Provider operating over 200,000 Internet domains, serving users in 137 different countries. His background also includes 18 years as a radio and television newscaster in Pensacola, Florida and Raleigh, North Carolina. "Alex is a graduate of Auburn University where he earned a B.A. in Mass Communication and learned to appreciate that, in the state of Alabama, there are two seasons: football and spring football."

Rick Stumpf, Digitech's Sales Manager says, "Alex is a great addition to the Digitech sales team with his personable approach to understanding the requirements for each facility, and then working with the Digitech engineering staff to configure the right system. Alex hit the ground running and has already proved his capabilities." Stumpf continues with a description of an informative and helpful video that was recorded during a recent conference sponsored by Inside Self Storage Magazine. "Alex is featured in a video on our web site that shows just how important security is in the financial plan for a storage facility. It's an easy to follow explanation of the ROI an owner gets from adding the right security features."

"I'm pleased to be with a company that has such a great reputation and has been solving security problems for over twenty years. Customers have been telling me that Digitech products have stood the test of time. That makes my job easier," says Lekas.
