Our Comprehensive Commercial Security Solutions

Unarmed On-Site Security for Businesses and Schools
Our unarmed on-site security guards deliver a sustained, visible human presence that no remote solution can replicate. Brentwood and the wider Contra Costa County area span retail corridors, commercial and office buildings, light manufacturing near Harvest Commerce Center, industrial and warehouse properties, residential communities, and school campuses, creating diverse security demands that a professional unarmed on-site guard is uniquely equipped to address.
Guard Qualifications That Meet California Standards
Every guard we deploy holds a valid BSIS Guard Card, as required under California law. Our guards complete background screening, Powers to Arrest training, and state-mandated coursework before setting foot on any client property. A dedicated Training and Quality Assurance Coordinator keeps all officers current with licenses, tactics, and post procedures. Our management team draws on more than 50 years of combined law enforcement and personnel management experience.
How Do Unarmed On-Site Guards Protect Properties 24/7?
A professional on-site security guard protects your property through sustained physical presence, incident documentation, access control, and immediate response. Unlike automated systems, our guards exercise real-time judgment to intervene, de-escalate, and report before situations worsen. Guards are stationed and scheduled to match your property's operational rhythms.
Unarmed On-Site Guard Services
We provide unarmed guard services exclusively. Our unarmed on-site guards are well suited for:
- Retail centers and office buildings where a visible, approachable presence is the primary goal.
- Environments where de-escalation, access management, and customer-facing professionalism are the core needs.
- Residential communities, apartment complexes, and HOA properties needing consistent patrol and resident-facing service.
- Schools and campuses where a calm, professional presence supports staff, students, and visitors.
Every guard we assign holds a valid BSIS Guard Card. Because we operate as an unarmed agency, we focus on visible deterrence, access control, and de-escalation, and we assess your property before recommending a coverage plan.

Office Building Security Service FAQs
How Do I Know if My Office Building Needs On-Site Unarmed Security Guards?
If your building hosts multiple tenants, experiences high visitor volume, or sits within a high-traffic corridor like Sand Creek Road or Balfour Road, on-site security is a practical investment. We conduct thorough risk assessments to identify access vulnerabilities and the level of unarmed office building security service presence best suited to your property. We also offer remote guard surveillance with patrol officer response, monitoring your existing camera system or equipment we provide, so incidents are met with a dispatched patrol officer or, if necessary, the police.
What Is the Difference Between Access Control and an Unarmed Security Guard?
Key cards and intercoms restrict entry but cannot respond to situations, exercise judgment, or assist a tenant in distress. Our unarmed officers complement technology-based systems with human oversight and real-time decision-making, providing the most effective coverage for multi-tenant office environments in Brentwood and the surrounding East Contra Costa area. For hours when on-site staffing is not needed, we offer remote guard surveillance with patrol officer response, monitoring live camera feeds and dispatching a patrol officer, or the police if the situation calls for it.
Can I Get Unarmed Security Guards on a Temporary or Short-Term Basis?
Yes. We offer flexible arrangements including short-term assignments, event-specific coverage, remote guard surveillance with patrol officer response, and trial periods for office building security. Whether you need coverage for a corporate event or ongoing weekday lobby staffing, we can structure a plan around your needs. Visit our contact page to discuss scheduling options.
How Do Your Unarmed Guards Handle Incidents Inside an Office Building?
The officers that are part of our office building security services follow documented post orders specific to each property and produce accurate Daily Activity Reports and Incident Reports every shift. When an incident occurs, officers respond per established protocols, notify appropriate parties, and document the event in detail. Our management team reviews all reports before forwarding them to clients, keeping property managers fully informed. On properties covered by remote guard surveillance, our monitoring team watches live video from your existing cameras or from equipment we install, then responds to activity by dispatching a patrol officer to the site and contacting police when the situation requires it.
