About Us
Our Founder, Ken Buffington, started Aegis with one thought in mind – to create a customer-centric environment with knowledgeable technicians who love their work.
After founding a security guard company in his hometown of Miami with his dad in 1983, Ken decided to move on to the engineering side of security technology in 1993. From then on, Ken has strived to provide meticulous service to every project and customer he has met. Upon relocating his family to the Western Slope of Colorado in 2004, Ken gained a reputation for his impeccable work among colleagues and clients. This continued when he moved to handle the Front Range in 2015. Ken has spent 30+ years constantly learning and growing within the fire safety and security industry – but always worked for others. In 2020, after surviving a 6-week coma and intubation due to COVID-19 infection and months of rehabilitation, Ken decided to go into business for himself and bring the experienced technicians he had met along the way with him. It was then that Aegis Fire & Security Systems was born.
Aegis is a family- and employee-owned and operated company. Our managers have 20+ years’ experience each and are a NICET III & IV.
