Affordable Patrol Service
Protect your Business with Uniformed Patrol Officers
Patrol Service is an affordable way to prevent problems on your business property when you’re not there, giving you peace of mind. A visible security presence is an effective crime deterrent. Our uniformed security officers patrol your property in clearly marked security vehicles. Among other tasks, they ensure that your employees have properly secured your facility for the night and monitor the grounds for any unusual activity. They patrol randomly so unwanted visitors are never able to predict the officer’s route schedule.

Our customized patrol services are designed to meet your needs. A member of our experienced management team will speak with you about the unique requirements of your property. We’ll develop a custom list of tasks for our security experts to perform daily during a range of hours that suits your needs. Our officers have a direct line of communication with the office team 24 hours a day. Officers will instantly notify the proper authorities at your discretion of any criminal activity.

FAQ’s
What if Local Authorities are Unable to Respond?
We can provide a licensed, uniformed, unarmed security officer that will respond to your alarm in a clearly marked security vehicle for a flat fee per response. That way, you get the caring response you need for yourself, your family, or your loved ones without fines from the municipal emergency response system.
What process does a security officer use to determine if the alarm was false or if there was/is an intruder?
The alarm company tells our alarm response team what doors or windows were tripped and if any motion sensors were activated. Sometimes we can identify a true break in right away based on typical patterns, such as multiple detectors triggered. Depending on the circumstance, we may call the police immediately. In most occurrences, we send an officer to investigate the property with caution. The officer will then call the authorities if necessary or resolve it as a false alarm.
Will your officers remove an intruder from my property?
No, our officers only observe and report. Security Officers will not apprehend any suspects. Proper authorities and/or representatives will be called if anything seems suspicious or out of the ordinary. All of our officers are unarmed.
