Armed Security Guards
Our licensed armed security guards provide enhanced protection for high-risk locations and valuable assets. These professionals undergo specialized training in firearm handling, threat assessment, and emergency response protocols. Ideal for financial institutions, high-profile events, and sensitive facilities requiring immediate intervention capabilities, our armed guards serve as both deterrent and active defense against potential threats while maintaining strict compliance with California's security regulations.
Unarmed Security Guards
Professional unarmed security personnel offer visible deterrence and proactive monitoring for commercial and residential properties. Trained in observation techniques, access control, and incident documentation, these guards effectively prevent theft and vandalism through regular patrols and customer interaction. Particularly suited for retail centers, office buildings, and community associations seeking cost-effective security solutions without compromising professional presence or safety standards.
Mobile Security Patrols
GPS-tracked mobile patrols provide flexible security coverage for multiple locations and after-hours protection. Our officers conduct scheduled or random inspections of properties to detect trespassing, vandalism, and safety hazards while generating detailed activity reports. This service combines vehicle-based surveillance with on-site verification, offering businesses an efficient alternative to permanent security posts while maintaining comprehensive documentation of all security checks.
Event Security Services
Specialized security personnel for concerts, corporate events, and public gatherings ensure attendee safety and incident prevention. Our trained staff manages crowd control, access points, and emergency response while maintaining professional guest interactions. From small private functions to large-scale public events, we provide customized security plans that address venue-specific risks and regulatory requirements for comprehensive event safety.
Surveillance Monitoring
Integrated video surveillance systems with live monitoring provide continuous property protection and evidence collection capabilities. Our service includes camera installation, real-time observation, and automated alert response for suspicious activities. Combining advanced technology with trained monitoring personnel, this solution offers businesses 24/7 digital security coverage that complements on-site personnel and enhances overall risk mitigation strategies.

Joke of a company
sites are terrible, especially town Halls & depot's, the full time guards on these sites can get away with talking to you however they want, they've got no communication skills & can just about speak english, if you pipe up back, which I did as no one speaks to me the way these muppets did, they make up lies and united guarding takes there side regardless of what happened and this results in you being banned from the sites. during the pandemic they gave me no shifts and didn't put me on any government furlough, when I questioned them about this, they ignored my email and scraped

Disgusting company
Unresponsive during lockdowns, they would rather there staff struggle than use government furlough schemes to help there employees through hard times, If you can't do a shift for whatever reason they become petty and give all your shifts to someone else, the office love to call you after a night shift whilst your trying to sleep, even though they send out regular newsletters regarding mental health like they actually care, this company is mentally draining, unless desperate I'd stay away.

Lie about their pay, lie about providing training; managers mess around on your training time, unorganised, staff are lazy and unhelpful, can't have a break without someone interrupting it but expected to be at work early. Only work here if you plan on having no life.
