Armed or unarmed
On-site guards
A standing post — someone at your door, gate or desk for a defined shift.
What this actually involves
A static post is presence you can point at. The officer holds one location, controls who comes through, and is the first person anyone with a problem talks to.
The post is only as good as its post orders. We write down what the officer does, what they do not do, who they call and in what order — before the first shift, not after the first incident.
Unarmed is the default. Officers are trained to observe, document and escalate rather than to intervene physically, because that is what protects your liability as well as their safety.
What you get back
- Written post orders specific to your site
- Shift log for every shift with a documented handover
- Incident reports within 24 hours, sooner when it matters
- A named supervisor who visits the post, not just a dispatcher
Questions we get
Before you call
- What are your minimum shift lengths?
- Four hours for most posts. Shorter callouts are possible for urgent work but are priced differently, because the travel and setup cost is the same either way.
- Will it be the same officer every shift?
- For recurring posts we assign a consistent crew wherever scheduling allows. Familiarity with your site is most of what makes a guard useful, and rotating strangers through a post wastes that.
