24/7 On-Site Security Guards

Our licensed guards are trained in government-specific security protocols, including controlled access to restricted areas, emergency response, and visitor screening. With routine site inspections and ongoing performance evaluations, you can trust our team to maintain the high level of professionalism required in government facilities.

Customized Site Protocols

Every government facility has unique operational and compliance requirements. We work closely with administrators to develop detailed post orders that cover secure entry procedures, ID verification, visitor management, and emergency protocols to ensure consistent and compliant security coverage

Advanced Technology Integration

We utilize real-time incident reporting, GPS-tracked patrols, and surveillance system integration to provide full transparency and improve response times across government facilities of all sizes.

Concierge-Style Service When Needed

Government offices often interact with the public, which demands security personnel who are both approachable and authoritative. Our guards provide professional service that balances security enforcement with respectful engagement, supporting a positive visitor experience while maintaining order.

Local Response, National Standards

With teams serving both provincial and federal buildings in Ottawa and Toronto, our services combine localized knowledge of government environments with industry-leading standards for public sector security across Canada.

Our Government Security Services include:

Uniformed Security Guards

Professional, licensed security guards deliver a visible, disciplined security presence in sensitive government environments—supporting public-facing service while deterring threats and enforcing site-specific protocols.

Mobile Patrols & Alarm Response

Vehicle-based patrols provide flexible perimeter coverage and rapid alarm response—ensuring your facility remains secure during off-hours, holidays, and low-occupancy periods.

Access Control Management

Trained security guards monitor entry points, verify credentials, and manage visitor access to restricted areas—supporting compliance with government security standards and maintaining operational control.

CCTV Monitoring Support

Our security guards provide real-time monitoring of your surveillance infrastructure, helping to identify unusual behaviour, potential risks, or policy violations before they escalate.

Reception & Public Interaction Security

For government buildings with regular public access, our guards offer a respectful, approachable presence—assisting guests, guiding foot traffic, and managing front desks without compromising site security.

Incident Reporting & Documentation

Thorough, standardized reporting keeps your team informed of all security-related activity—supporting audits, investigations, compliance, and risk management.
