A thorough security and safety assessment is conducted with each client.  We consider factors such as location, size, existing security measures, risk level, and specific requests by our clients.  Our team will then propose either armed our unarmed security guards:

Our unarmed security guards have just the right knowledge, experience, skills, and certification to carry out a wide variety of entry to mid-level security tasks. These tasks range from visible deterrence to crime prevention to reporting and de-escalating incidents.

Our armed security guards are trained to possess and use firearms mainly for defense.  All armed guards are licensed professionals, self-controlled, and trained to perform at the highest level to deter crime and become an asset to protecting your organization. We believe that force is not always the answer, but the need for force can never be eliminated. When that need arises, it is crucial to supply the best kind of service. Our armed security guards have received the proper security training including proper force and de-escalation training to resolve all kinds of conflicts and high-risk situations.

Armed vs. Unarmed Security Guards: You can expect to pay more per hour for an armed security guard as opposed to an unarmed security guard. Security companies that employ armed guards bear higher insurance and training costs. Armed guards must also undergo firearms training, non-violent crisis training, and meet state licensing requirements.

Depending on the risk and level of protection, you may only need the services of an unarmed guard. If you have significant security concerns, you will probably want security guards with extensive experience in handling and de-escalating potentially high-risk situations. Our Armed Security Guards and Executive Protection team are often retired or off-duty police officers or ex-military personnel with extensive security or Special Forces training.
