What Are Unarmed Security Services? Security services provides you, your company, or your property with critical private protection. Each guard is unarmed and allowed to operate on private property or within the bounds of property. Every guard that we place with your company is required to go through a rigorous screening and background check process to ensure they are trustworthy. After screening, they go through in-house training to help them provide a higher quality security service on your property whether it is on a cruise ship, in a mall, or in a retail shop. Once each guard has completed training, they operate as private security guards and will fulfill their contractual obligations for the necessary time span. Security guard services may be requested for short one-time events, or on a temporary ongoing basis to fill a gap in staff employment.

Fire Guard Duty Many buildings require or just feel safer with an assigned Fire Guard on duty. Certain local governments may require, by code, the presence of a trained and depending on the municipality, licensed Fire Guard. A Fire Guard has training in fire extinguishing equipment, fire safety, sprinkler systems and emergency procedures. Certain residential buildings not equipped with sprinkler systems may require full time Fire Watch personnel as do some hotels, offices, shelters, construction sites where an open flame is in use. Buildings where the fire alarm or sprinkler system is for any reason out of service may require the services of a Fire Guard. Event Security If your organization is planning a special event such as a tradeshow, a conference, a concert or festival, Planned can coordinate and staff the proper level of security. Should you require a single security officer or a full team which may include security scanning at the entrance or crowd control, we can craft a solution for your specific requirement. Gated Communities A gated community’s top-selling asset for residents is that the neighborhood is safer and more reliable, providing a sense of security. Unfortunately, many neighborhoods fail to live up to this reputation as simply installing an gate will not prevent vandalism, theft, or other disturbances. Hiring a security service provides a stronger sense of safety to residents. Not only does a consistent guard raise the value of the neighborhood’s homes, these services keep crime down, and help make the neighborhood a quieter and more peaceful place for everyone.

How Unarmed Guard Service Can Help You VS. Armed Unarmed guard services are an excellent choice for security in businesses and communities that are looking to secure their assets and provide a sense of security to patrons and residents alike. College campuses, for example, rely on unarmed guards from Planned to ensure the safety of their students and prevent vandalism. Gated communities and neighborhoods within HOAs utilized hired services to provide a stronger sense of well-being and protection within the community and raise the overall value and security of the neighborhood. Managers utilize these temporary security services to provide essential unarmed security and safety precautions for weddings, trade shows, social activities, and other types of security guard event that is open to the public or include a large number of participants. Offices, restaurants, and retail stores often use these unarmed guard services to deter theft, remove unwanted patrons from private property, and provide a stronger sense of safety for office workers in high-profile work environments. An armed guard may offer protection, but these officers may also make patrons and staff nervous. An armed security guard can be dangerous if improperly trained or armed with the wrong weapons.

Round Verification Planned Tour is our round verification system designed to confirm the security guards are making their appointed rounds on time. Using RFID technology, Planned Tour allows the security guards to scan stationary RFID agents mounted at key checkpoints along the checkpoint path. This data is then uploaded to a security management portal to allow managers to precisely track the security guard’s activities. Facial Recognition Employee Check-in Planned Security Services has also created a state-of-the-art facial recognition system that requires our employees to check in and check out for their shift by photographic image from a device securely mounted to the guard station. This process eliminates any question of the employee’s start time or quitting time. GPS Vehicle Tracking Vehicle tracking is another benefit of Planned Security Services.
