Ranger Fire and Security has completed its first acquisition of 2026, Dorset-based Partnership Fire and Security.
Partnership Fire and Security was established in 1999 and has grown to cover more than 3,000 customers across Shaftesbury, Dorset and the South Coast. The team, which consists of engineers and administrative staff, includes teams specialising in installation, as well as a full-time alarm servicing and maintenance department.
The deal marks Ranger Fire and Security’s 14th acquisition since launching in February 2024 and is its second acquisition in the South West alongside last year’s acquisition of Plymouth’s Universal Fire and Security.
Mark Bridges, CEO of Ranger Fire and Security, said: “Partnership Fire and Security marks our first acquisition of the year. We are delighted for them to become the latest addition to the team and bring their acute knowledge of the alarm and security sector to the Group.”
“This is our second acquisition in the South West as we continue to build out our footprint and service lines across the UK and Ireland. With more announcements lined up for 2026, we are excited for what the coming year will bring for Ranger.”
Nick Ogle, managing director of Partnership Fire and Security: “We pride ourselves on our customer service and as part of the Ranger Group we are looking forward to working with other experts across the fire and security sector to reach even more customers in the area and further afield.”
