Like all great business stories, Castle Security started from a small operation, based in the front room of Bill and Val Thorp’s family home in April 1989. In the beginning, the company traded as Castle Security & Electrical, undertaking both security and electrical work for Bill’s loyal client base.

The nineties saw some serious growth for Castle Security, with Bill and Val’s venture becoming Castle Security & Electrical PTY. LTD in 1993. In the same year, Castle Security picked up their first State Government contracts, installing security in schools across the state.

Five years after moving Castle Security from a lounge room to a backyard workshop, Bill decided to dream bigger again, moving Castle Security into its first commercial premises in Malaga in 2002. With business booming on the security front, 2005 saw Castle Security focus more on the security side than the electrical side and began trading as the Castle Security you know and love today.

In 2008, current Director Louis Thorp started with Castle Security as a Security Consultant, coming from an electrical and IT background.

In 2012, Castle Security moved again, this time to its second and current commercial property in Landsdale. This move has allowed the company to spread its wings, take on more clients, and provide the best service possible. Castle Security solidified its presence in the commercial sector in 2015 when the company became an accredited Gallagher Security partner.

As Castle Security celebrated its 30th birthday, Bill has slowly stepped away from the business and handed over the reins to the more-than-capable hands of his sons Louis and Andrew. The company is continuing to move forward in new and interesting ways.

Castle Security is incredibly excited to focus on the commercial security sector, expanding into Medical, Cloud, Transport, Construction, and Rapid Deployment Security.
