About CGF

Guard. Govern. Protect.

Custodire. Gubernare. Firmare.

These words are more than the meaning behind the CGF name. They are the personal motto of our founder, Chad tattooed on his arm, and carried into the way he lives, leads his team, and looks after his customers.

To guard what matters. To take responsibility. To protect the people around you.

That philosophy became CGF.

Our founder

We understand what we are protecting

Chad grew up in a rough part of England. Today, he lives and works in a very different world.

That experience has shaped the way he thinks about security and people’s safety.

He understands why someone who has worked hard to build a beautiful home wants to protect their family and what they have created. He understands the business owner who has spent years building something, and wants to protect their people, premises and livelihood.

But he also understands the other side.

He grew up around people who knew how to find opportunities, exploit weaknesses and take advantage when something was left unprotected.

That perspective has never left him.

It is why CGF does not look at security as simply installing cameras and alarms. We think about what you are protecting, where the weaknesses are, how someone might approach them, and what can practically be done to give you greater control.

Our approach

More than security

Protection today goes far beyond an alarm system.

Your electrical, security and communications systems increasingly work together.

Power

Lighting

CCTV

Intercoms

Alarms

Access control

Data

WiFi

Starlink

NBN

Solar

Batteries

EV charging

Automation

CGF understands how these systems connect, and how they affect the way you live and work. That is why we built CGF differently one team: electrical, security, connectivity.

We take responsibility for the complete scope, understand how each part interacts, and make sure the finished system works as one.

Our philosophy

It comes back to caring

For Chad, protecting people is personal it’s built into how he operates.

Personal

Or simply helping an elderly woman who is frightened because people have been hanging around outside her home.

Commercial

Designing an integrated system for a major commercial site.

Business

Helping a business owner protect something they have spent twenty years building.

The scale does not determine how much we care. The person does.

That attitude runs through CGF. We want to understand what is worrying you, what you are trying to achieve, and what would genuinely make your home or business work better. Then we use what we know about electrical, security and connectivity to make it happen.

This is CGF

We are technical people, but technology is only the tool

What matters is what it does for you.

A home that feels safe, a business you can keep an eye on, lighting that makes the outside of your home feel welcoming rather than vulnerable, an intercom that lets you decide who comes through the gate, reliable power, a network that works, systems you can understand and control, and one team you can call when you need help.
