About Us

3-East, LLC started in 2015 when Matt Gilbertson, Tim Freese & Jeff Gilbertson formed a separate corporate entity to control and oversee the ongoing Intellectual Property development through their efforts at The Gilbertson Group.

The firm’s name is a reference to their high school alma mater, West Chester East Vikings. The company’s logo pays tribute to the visionary Viking-sailing ships of yesteryear that incorporated new technology like astrolabes and celestial navigation techniques helping them circumnavigate the globe in fast and light ships.

In 2020, 3-East moved into its new corporate headquarters in Parkesburg, Pennsylvania. This state-of-the-art facility includes an expansive property complete with an environmentally controlled warehouse, a tech-support/production lab, offices and conference spaces ideal for training and end-user presentations.

As of 2022, Matt and Tim assumed full control and ownership of 3-East so Jeff could continue his career with a national provider of security integration and cash handling services.

3-East continues to partner with select high-quality national and regional resellers committed to bringing 3-East products to a receptive end-user base across many different verticals. The new iterations of VeraPass and Smart Deposit Stations (formerly smartAHD) are taking the intelligent key and smart depository business to whole new levels.
