FROM THE FOUNDER

ABOUT GOODKNIGHT

All that GoodKnight desires to do is improve your overall security, whether that is for you, your home, business, or House of Worship. With my experience, I aim to help Americans feel safe and secure.

The desire for safety and security in our homes is more prominent today than ever before. Factors such as foreign wars, civil unrest, natural disasters, high crime rates, insurance liabilities, and personal threats contribute to this need. GoodKnight is here to help you navigate these challenges.

Every American—yes, every single one—should feel empowered to protect themselves and their loved ones.

Safety and security can be achieved through the mastery of basic skills that everyone is capable of learning. Remember, while a security system is a valuable tool, it's primarily a notification system. The time between an alert and the arrival of help is crucial. Are you prepared and capable?

GoodKnight is not just a security consulting company; we aspire to build your confidence and sharpen your skills for a safer community. Through training and education, we provide the tools, skills, and knowledge necessary for anyone who wishes to enhance their personal security.

Current & Previous Clients

Emily w., young woman

I never felt comfortable with firearms, because I did not grow up around them. I knew I wanted something to protect myself, but I did not know where to begin. GoodKnight educated me on the responsibilities of owning a firearm and how to use it. I feel so much more confident carrying!

Chad w., homeowner

Our neighborhood had a series of break ins that were unexpected. I had always thought we lived in a safe area, but it can happen anywhere! Goodknight taught me how to protect my home and family in case of an unexpected emergency.

Molly s., mother of 2

I'm so thankful I was able to finally receive my Red Cross CPR training through GoodKnight. I have two young boys who are into everything! Now knowing I can save their lives, God forbid if needed, gives me a sense of peace at mind I didn't have before.

Mark R., homeowner

Jim brings his military background to bear with expert knowledge of security strategies and equipment. I can wholeheartedly recommend his company as trustworthy, competent, and reliable.
