About Fortfyr – Self-Defence and Personal Safety Products in Ireland
Welcome to Fortfyr /fɔːrt.faɪər/, a Dublin-based business born out of necessity and a passion for personal safety and self-defence. Our story began on a business trip to the Philippines, where I was introduced to the idea of personal alarms by a colleague. Intrigued, but also concerned about my family's safety during my travels, I bought a couple of these alarms as a precautionary measure and brought them back home to Ireland for my wife and children.
To my surprise, the alarms quickly became a topic of interest among their friends, who were eager to get their hands on one. Unfortunately, I hadn’t bought extras, and when we searched for similar products online, for example personal safety alarms, we were met with long delivery times from what looked like drop-shipped items coming from overseas.
Filling the Gap for Reliable Self-Defence Products in Ireland
Realising there was a clear gap in the market for reliable, high quality personal safety devices stocked locally in Ireland, I decided to take matters into my own hands. Fortfyr was created to offer a carefully curated selection of personal alarms and security products, all sourced directly from trusted manufacturers and stocked right here in Ireland. This approach ensures faster delivery, no hidden costs, and most importantly, products you can trust.
We have since expanded our range to include popular items such as Farb Gel Spray, Schrill Alarm, Plegium Combo Defence Spray, and Plegium Smart Emergency Buttons, providing even more effective options to help people across Ireland stay safe and connected wherever they go.

Understanding Ireland’s Self-Defence Laws
In Ireland, self-defence laws are particularly strict and place limits on the types of products that can be legally carried for personal protection. Under current regulations, items such as personal alarms and non-noxious sprays are among the few options available to individuals for self-defence. Fortfyr strives to fully comply with these laws by offering a range of legal, effective, and reliable safety products tailored to meet the needs of our community. However, we strongly recommend that you consult a qualified legal professional regarding the use and possession of any personal defence device to ensure compliance with all applicable laws.
