About Us

Our Journey So Far...

Lowly Beginnings… Rising Fast

At Safetell, we design, develop, install, and service a diverse and bespoke range of physical security solutions to a wide range of sectors. Our exemplary service, combined with a range of products ensure each solution meets our client’s requirements. More importantly, it means we create enduring partnerships, meaning customers rely on our consultative approach to protection, as their needs change over the years. Safetell was founded in 1989 when it began providing bullet-resistant fast rising screens to protect high street banks against armed robbery. Since then, we have installed over 3,000 screens in branches nationwide and developed a range of products to meet the ever-changing demands of asset protection. While our offering and positioning have changed to meet the industry needs over time, we still provide the same customer-first service from initial site survey, through to ongoing maintenance and support.

30 Years of International Success

We have agents and distributors across the world and are dedicated to providing the same bespoke and personal security experience to everyone. Today, Safetell has become a leader in the International security industry and is the authority on providing standard and bespoke security solutions designed to protect staff and assets against criminal threats and potential terrorist incidents.

With over 30 years of physical security success, we will never stop innovating and are always on the lookout to revolutionize the security landscape once more.

Our name, Safetell, comes from providing ‘Safety’ for ‘Tellers’ and we do this by offering the latest in modern and tailored solutions for a breadth of companies and businesses, including the Banking, Retail, Transport Infrastructure, Healthcare industries, among many others.
