When armed coverage may fit
- Sites with a history of serious incidents.
- Cash handling or high-value inventory.
- After-hours coverage at isolated properties.
How we decide
We review your site, risks and requirements before recommending armed coverage. Many sites are better served by unarmed officers or patrols, and we will tell you if that is the case. Availability depends on the assignment.
How every assignment is delivered
- Written post orders before the first shift, so officers know your site, contacts and procedures.
- Checkpoint verification: officers scan checkpoints at gates, doors, stairwells and parking areas, creating a time-stamped record of each round.
- Written incident reports with time, location, people involved and actions taken.
- Shift reports available to your designated contact.
- A service agreement and certificate of insurance before coverage starts ($1M per occurrence / $2M aggregate general liability).
