Properties we protect

Getting started

Covered
in three moves.

From the first call to the first shift, it stays simple.

01

We walk the property

A free visit to see your entrances, lot and quiet hours the way an intruder would.

02

You get it in writing

A written proposal with the coverage we suggest, ready for you to approve.

03

Officers start

Coverage begins on your date, and the reports start with the very first shift.

What we ask about any property

Whatever kind of property you have, the first questions are the same. Who is there during the day, and who is there at night? When does it empty out? What has happened in the last year? Where are the entrances people actually use?

The answers matter more than the label on the building. A hotel with a quiet lot and a busy lobby needs something different from a hotel with a quiet lobby and a lot full of beach gear. The industry pages below describe what is typical, and the walkthrough fills in what is specific to you.

Mixed-use buildings downtown

Plenty of buildings around Pacific Avenue mix uses: shops at street level, offices or apartments upstairs, a shared alley out back. Each part keeps its own hours, and the risks overlap in the hallways, the back door and the parking.

A plan for a building like that treats each part on its own terms: a closing officer for the shops, patrol stops for the residents, a lockup check for the offices. Everything lands in one report. Our services overview lists each piece, and the downtown storefront guide covers the street-level shops.

Managing several properties

Property managers with buildings across town often want one plan instead of five. We walk each property, write coverage that fits how each one runs and put them on a single proposal.

Reports can go to each building’s manager with a copy to you, so you can follow the whole group without chasing anyone. Apartment communities are often set up this way.

A few useful answers

Questions by property type.

Our property is a bit of everything. Where do we start?

Pick the page that sounds closest and give us a call. Mixed properties are common here, like a shop with apartments upstairs, and we plan each part on its own terms.

Can you cover several buildings for one management company?

Yes. Several properties can sit under one plan, with reports for each.

Can coverage change between summer and winter?

Yes. With month-to-month agreements, hours can rise for the busy season and fall after it.

Which properties need the most flexible plans?

Venues and hotels, because the crowd changes from one night to the next. A standing plan with officers added for the big nights handles it well, and our patrol or posted officer guide helps with the quieter hours.

Do you cover construction sites too?

Yes. Construction site security covers gate check-in, overnight officers and patrol, and the jobsite planning guide walks contractors through the setup.

Can a building that sits vacant for a season still be covered?

Yes. Patrol stops and an alarm plan keep it checked, and the log shows every night someone looked.
