Beagle Watch named best security company in Johannesburg

January 2026 News & Events, Security Services & Risk Management

Beagle Watch Armed Response has been named Johannesburg’s Best Security Company in the 2025 Best of Joburg Awards. The company came out on top among about 26 nominated private security companies in the greater Johannesburg area, thanks to overwhelming public support.

“We are humbled by the tremendous support from our clients and supporters in casting their votes for Beagle Watch,” says managing director André Aiton. “Since starting out in 2004, we have stayed true to our mission of delivering premium services to the benefit of our clients and the communities we serve. However, at the core of our business is our deep involvement with our communities on so many levels.”

Beagle Watch is, in essence, an armed response and guarding services company, but it also offers a one-stop service in various other areas, such as technical support and an online security shop. Beagle Watch clients enjoy additional peace of mind with priority emergency medical support from Netcare 911 and private firefighting services from Fire Ops SA – all included at no extra charge.

“We also have a unique Environmental Team, on call 24/7, and our Canine Rescue Unit has reunited hundreds of lost pets with worried owners.”
