We Fight Back!
If you have a look at so-called “security” in South Africa today – a couple of things become clear.
1. Clients (be it farmers, game farmers, city folk) are not willing to pay a premium for their safety, therefore
2. Security companies put guards in the field that have very basic training and often operate alone or maybe in pairs
The result of this is that you get low quality so-called security and live in a false sense of feeling secure.
We feel that every citizen in South Africa should be pro-actively involved in their own communities and their own homes to ensure their own safety. No-one is going to do it for you. A typical reaction force responds within 3 minutes, the time to pull a trigger is typically 2 seconds. So in 2 minutes someone can do a lot of trigger pulling BEFORE anyone can react.
Therefore, the better prepared you are, the better you will be able to defend yourself and your family. Fortis have been actively involved in the industry since 1997 and with our knowledge and expertise we feel it time to make a contribution to all the citizens of South Africa. We are not a security company, we just know security inside and out, having been involved in International contracts for some time now.
Our operators work in groups and are all duly qualified. By qualified we mean that every operator passed a month long selection phase before his training even started. These operators were then trained in special tactics by International specialists to be able to assist in any given situation. We place the same emphasis on our operator training as special forces units the world over does. That is why we operate different from other companies. With Fortis, you get a specialised service – unsurpassed anywhere in Southern Africa.
We believe that crimnials need to be fought head-on. That they need to be beaten at their own game. For this, military tactics are necessary, and the better trained your operators are, the better you would be able to handle the criminal. The days of petty theft are long gone, the days of being safeguarded by the authorites are long gone. We need to stand up and be counted.
If you are serious about security and are looking for a company that operates at the top end of the pyramid, look no further.
