Who We Are

Gentle Gorilla Protection Services is a proudly South African security company committed to delivering professional, cost-effective, and responsive security solutions. With over a decade of industry experience, we protect homes, businesses, estates, and individuals with the highest standard of service.

Our teams are fully trained and equipped to handle any security challenge — from static guarding to high-risk close protection. We believe that true security starts with trust, discipline, and a personalised approach to every client's needs.

Armindo Jabulani Qalapa – Founder

We didn't build Gentle Gorilla to be just another security company. We built it to be the one you can actually count on — day or night, rain or shine. Every officer we deploy carries that responsibility with pride.
