Mobile Patrols & Alarm Response

Rapid-response mobile patrols cover large yards, warehouses, and multi-building campuses, ensuring continuous site visibility and prompt reaction to alarms or suspicious activity during low-traffic hours or overnight operations.

Access Control Management

Control access to secure areas with security guards trained in vehicle inspections, driver check-ins, and load verification, helping reduce inventory loss and keep unauthorized personnel off-site.

CCTV Monitoring Support

Our security guards support your surveillance systems by monitoring camera feeds in real time, identifying potential threats across high-risk areas like shipping bays, storage zones, and parking lots.

While traditional front desks don’t apply, our guards manage key logistical functions such as verifying delivery manifests, guiding inbound/outbound vehicle traffic, and logging contractor or courier activity.

Incident Reporting & Documentation

Detailed, time-stamped reporting gives you complete visibility into on-site activity, supporting compliance, insurance claims, and internal investigations.
