Customers can easily upgrade to a 100% police officer security team at a reasonable rate. In fact, 70% to 100% of our officers are already active-duty, retired, or have prior law enforcement experience—ensuring a level of professionalism, authority, and training that sets us apart.

If your local government, venue or insurance provider requires POST-certified police officers on site, no problem—we’re fully equipped to meet those standards and provide compliant, credentialed personnel without hassle.

What types of properties do your armed security professionals protect?

We secure everything from construction sites and commercial buildings to events, warehouses, residential facilities, and private homes. If it needs protecting, we can help.

Are your guards licensed and trained?

Yes. All our security officers are licensed by the state and receive ongoing training to maintain required certifications. We also tailor additional training based on the unique demands of each site, because every client’s needs are different.

Do you offer both armed and unarmed guards?

Absolutely. We provide both armed and unarmed officers depending on your site’s risk level and your specific requirements.

Can I request off-duty or prior law enforcement personnel?

Yes. Approximately most of our security guards are either current police officers or have prior law enforcement experience. If your site requires POST-certified officers for traffic control, insurance compliance, or other reasons, we can absolutely provide those personnel.

How quickly can you deploy a guard to my location?

Once you schedule with us, we immediately alert our entire team of officers. Those with availability quickly respond to claim the shift. In most emergency situations, we can have someone on-site within just a few hours. That said, the more notice we receive, the easier it is to guarantee full coverage. Either way, we’re here for you when it matters most.

Do your guards write reports or document incidents?

Yes. Our guards complete detailed, time-stamped reports for every shift. If an incident occurs, the officer submits a report through our GPS-enabled app along with photos and notes. All reports are saved in your file and can be sent to you anytime.

Can I customize the duties of the guard on my site?

Definitely. Every post is tailored to your needs—whether it’s access control, perimeter checks, gate monitoring, or customer service.

How do I know the guard actually showed up and stayed on site?

We use GPS tracking and digital check-ins to verify presence and patrol routes. You’ll have full transparency into guard activity.
