Converged Technology for Modern Businesses

OUR HISTORY

At Orion, we combine craftsmanship with the locally-sourced materials on which we built our foundation. This inspires each product we manufacture.  We stand by the foundational principles that products are only as good as the materials used to make them and the people who create them. Our dedication to these principles has allowed us to grow to a 40,000 square-foot facility that manufactures access control solutions for Fortune 100 companies and clients across the globe.

Since our founding in 2009, we’ve remained true to our commitment to creating peace of mind for our customers, fabrication partners, and team members. We firmly believe that this sets us apart from others in this industry.

The systems Orion creates are as steadfast and enduring as our namesake.

STEVE CAROSELLI

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND PRESIDENT

About Steve Caroselli

Innovation and Intention. Steve has always seen the direction Orion needs to head, leading the industry with deliberate use of disruptive technologies. Creating a platform for performance, whether it’s Turnstiles, or data delivering devices to drive decisions with precision, Steve has never wavered from what motivates him, family. Orion is a family business to be sure, and that business is protecting families.

Founding Orion in 2009, Steve called upon his previous 15+ years to create the Technology Company you see before you today. Having worked as both a Security Integrator and for Gunnebo Entrance Control, Steve knew what it would take to compete and eventually lead within this space. In under a decade, Orion Entrance Control has tripled its workforce, expanded sales to eleven countries, and provides solutions for some of the biggest names in the business.

Whether it’s Turnstiles, DoorGuard or SmartGate, Orion prides itself on being designed and manufactured in NH using recycled materials whenever possible. Furthering Orion’s Green Initiative, energy saving systems are employed throughout the HQ in Laconia.

In his spare time, Steve enjoys reading, listening to audiobooks, learning from podcasts and finding new local restaurants with his wife Kathie.

TOM ELLIOTT

VICE PRESIDENT ENTERPRISE SALES

About Tom Elliott

Graduating Class of ‘84 from DeVry University in Columbus, OH with a Bachelors in Electronic Technology, Tom began his journey as a technician for Lanier Worldwide’s Healthcare Division. Tom’s drive and ability to connect with the customers was noticed by management and he was subsequently put on the fast track within the company. Tom moved into Sales and then spent 10 years as a Sales Manager before leaving the company in 2006.

He then moved into a new industry when he began working for Access IT/Cinedigm where he, starting from scratch, quickly gained the recognition of management. Tom spent seven years at Cinedigm, getting granular in his territory, building a reputable book of business and left as a Regional Sales Manager.

Based on a personal reference, Steve reached out to Tom and convinced him to, yet again, start from scratch in a brand-new industry. Tom became the first official Salesperson for Orion in 2014. From that moment, Tom’s unique style of unwavering determination and attention to detail has led Orion’s sales team to new heights.

In his spare time, Tom enjoys attending concerts, often with his kids, playing golf and working around the house.

IAN BISSONNETTE

About Ian Bissonnette

After graduating as Valedictorian for his class, Ian began work at Orion straight out of school. Ian has a passion for process and a visceral understanding of what makes something tick, as such, his growth within the company has been pivotal to Orion’s success.

Beginning, as many members of the team do, as a panel builder, Ian’s quick learning made short work of training and he was swiftly promoted to Assembly Specialist. Soon after, he spent many years on the Customer Care team as a Traveling Technician and InHouse Customer Care Specialist.

Ian’s ability to quickly digest and thoroughly process information made him a natural at Research & Development, where he grew into Orion’s Product Manager.
