What Our Services Entail

Uniformed Security

With public buildings and spaces a constant target for vandalism, loitering and mischief, our uniformed security guards provide an effective visual deterrent and frontline response. Our uniformed guards are security professionals with extensive & advanced training, including de-escalation training, for working with various members of society (youth, citizens, visitors, unhoused population, individuals experiencing mental health issues, intoxicated individuals, health care patients, substance use issues, and are equipped with naloxone training).

Mobile Patrol

This cost-effective security service involves our guards patrolling pre-determined routes on a randomized schedule. Our mobile security guards can be deployed on bicycles or cars, relaying their positioning in real-time through our innovative TrackTik technology. These patrols can be scheduled, randomized or set to respond to alarms.

Concierge Security Services

Our concierge security specialists provide safety and security for your office or building 24 hours a day. They will monitor your building cameras, safeguard keys and enforce building policies diligently. Our concierge experts receive specialized training that allows them to administer first aid assistance and act as fire marshals in the event of an evacuation scenario.
