Our Story

From Law Enforcement Roots to Private Security Excellence

ACE’S Security Inc. was founded on the principle that true security requires more than a visible presence—it requires experience, strategy, and trust. Our story begins with over three decades of service in the Chicago Police Department, where our founder built an unmatched record in tactical operations, gang enforcement, investigations, and high-risk incident management.

During this time, our leadership worked closely with city departments, community leaders, and law enforcement agencies to create effective safety strategies. From gang house enforcement and vacant building security to coordinating multi-agency responses during civil unrest, the experience gained in these roles shaped the values and operating standards that define ACE’S Security today.

A Vision Born in 2003

In 2003, that law enforcement expertise was brought into the private sector with the launch of ACE’S Security Inc. The mission was clear: to provide security services that combine the discipline and precision of policing with the adaptability and customer focus of private security.

From the start, our team committed to delivering cost-effective, highly trained, and dependable personnel to businesses and individuals across Chicago and Illinois. We recognized that clients needed more than just guards—they needed strategic partners who could assess risks, anticipate problems, and act swiftly to protect assets and people.
