We are a privately held, family-owned business that prides itself
on providing personalized service to our customers. Owner Ken Jezioro
understands customers’ needs because he founded SHIELD Security Systems after experiencing a burglary at his own home. He was so frustrated by
the limited number of affordable security options that he built his own.
Ken used his prior experience in law enforcement and electronic
security to establish the SHIELD Security Systems brand. Our unique
background, commitment to clients, customized security solutions and
lack of long-term contracts are unmatched in the industry. We are
looking for people like you who share our vision and want to grow their
own security company.
