Armed security guards, set up for your site.

Most labs, offices and residential buildings in SSF are well covered by unarmed officers. Some sites are different: a warehouse holding electronics or pharmaceuticals, a yard full of equipment, a business that keeps getting hit. There, an armed officer raises the stakes for anyone planning a return trip.

The work itself is the same as any post: gate and perimeter, rounds, check-ins and reports. What changes is the deterrent.

At the walkthrough we’ll tell you straight whether armed coverage fits. A common setup in SSF is an armed officer overnight at the gate with unarmed officers on day shift.
