This is why so many businesses and communities are choosing to hire security guards. But before you go out and just hire any security guard service, here are a few things to consider.
Armed Security
If your business has high value assets or cash on hand, you may want to consider hiring an armed security service. The armed security guards at Curtis Protective Services are licensed to carry a firearm and extensively trained on how to use them. Though armed security guards work well in any situation, they are especially important for events involving, jewelry, money, and expensive items. Or events where celebrities or people of notoriety are attending or performing.
Unarmed Security
If your situation isn’t expecting any criminal activity, such as the daily work activity or community event, then an unarmed security guard may be appropriate for your situation. Unfortunately, watching the news on any given day, you realize a situation can happen just about anywhere and anytime.
Quick Response To An Emergency
It is important to ensure the security service you hire has the proper training, knowledge, and experience. Whether it is a security threat, unwanted intruder, fire, first aid, or natural disaster, the situation becomes amplified when there are a lot of people. A security guard is trained to handle any type of emergency.
