01Services

Protection, handled with care.

Eight ways we look after the people and places in our care, each one planned with you and staffed by officers trained to your site.

  • Professional, unarmed officers for lobbies, sites and stores: visible, approachable and trained to your procedures.

02Our approach

A plan written with you, followed by every officer.

Good security is personal. Before anyone stands at your door, we have listened, written it down and trained to it.

  1. 01

    We plan it with you

    We walk your site, learn how it really runs and who comes and goes, then write a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) together.

  2. 02

    We train to your plan

    Every officer is NYS/NJ certified, then trained on your SOP before they are assigned. No one arrives guessing.

  3. 03

    We manage on site

    A project manager at each location, with the authority to call on company resources the moment something comes up.

  4. 04

    We review and refine

    As your SOP reaches its benchmarks we review it with you and update it, so the plan keeps pace with your building and your people.

03Industries

Wherever people live, work and gather.

Each place has its own rhythm. We learn yours, then plan the right people around it.
