Browne Fire And Security – Protecting Irish Communities Since 1978
Where Our Story Began
Browne Fire And Security was founded by Larry Browne and his wife, Jenny. Having built his experience within a national fire-protection company, Larry decided to establish a business of his own. Through hard work, technical knowledge and a strong commitment to his customers, Larry built a trusted company with relationships that have continued across generations.
Aidan’s Legacy
In 2002, Larry’s son Aidan left a successful career in the technology sector to join the family business. He brought fresh ideas, energy and innovation, helping to modernise the company and significantly expand its customer base. Aidan took the helm in 2010. He was an exceptional businessman, but more importantly, he was a much-loved husband, father, son, colleague and friend.
In May 2018, Aidan tragically lost his life in a road accident. His loss was immeasurable, both personally and professionally. For a time, it was difficult to imagine the business continuing without him. His influence, values and vision remain deeply woven into Browne Fire And Security today.
Continuing the Journey
Following Aidan’s death, his wife, Aedín Hassett, took responsibility for leading the company while raising their three children. It was an extraordinarily difficult journey, but under Aedín’s leadership Browne Fire & Security has not only continued—it has grown and evolved.
Aedín expanded the team, introduced new services and developed the company from a traditional owner-operated business into a growing nationwide fire and security provider. Today, our skilled team and fleet of service vehicles support customers across Ireland.

Aidan will forever be part of our story. We believe he would be immensely proud of what Browne Fire And Security has become—and excited about where it is going next.
