Our History
Fire Alert was first established in Durban in 1975, by Jacobus Jordaan, laying the foundation for decades of trusted fire safety service.
In 1988, following the passing of the founder, Jeffery Jordaan, the next-generation owner established Fire Alert Prevention Appliances in Pietermaritzburg, expanding the company’s reach and expertise.
Today, Elicia Prigge, the third-generation owner has been successfully managing the business since 2024, overseeing all aspects of operations while honoring the legacy of her predecessors.
With a strong commitment to excellence and a focus on innovation, Fire Alert continues to grow while maintaining the core values of reliability, professionalism, and client trust.
