Global Security is headquartered in Fort Myers, and this city is where our standard is set. Founded here by law-enforcement professionals and former military experts, we provide licensed security guards, roving vehicle patrols, virtual monitoring and executive protection to businesses, communities and event organizers across the city and greater Lee County.
Fort Myers presents a distinct security profile: a growing downtown River District with restaurants, condos and nightlife; the McGregor corridor and Whiskey Creek with established residential neighborhoods; Iona and Page Park with a mix of commercial and multifamily properties; and the Gateway area serving the airport district with logistics, office and hospitality assets. Each of those environments needs a different posture, and we build the post around the property rather than the other way around.

Why Fort Myers clients choose Global Security
Our ownership and leadership come out of law enforcement and the military, and it shows in how we run posts: clear post orders, written daily activity reports, supervision that actually shows up, and officers who are trained to be courteous ambassadors as well as a deterrent. We are a local company — our office is on Evans Avenue — so a supervisor can be at your property quickly, not next week.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a security guard cost in Fort Myers?
Pricing depends on the post: armed versus unarmed, hours per week, vehicle requirements and level of reporting. Send us the address and scope of your property and we will return a specific quote, usually the same week.
Do you serve neighborhoods as well as businesses?
Yes. We protect gated residential communities, condominium associations, office buildings, retail centers, construction sites, healthcare facilities and private events throughout Fort Myers and Lee County.
Are your officers licensed?
Yes. Global Security provides licensed security guards, and our officers complete the state training required for the role they fill, including Class D unarmed training and Class G firearms training for armed posts.
Can I combine guards with camera monitoring?
Absolutely — many Fort Myers clients pair a smaller on-site presence with our Virtual Guard remote monitoring to keep eyes on the property during overnight and weekend hours. See our virtual guard monitoring page for how that works.
