Frequently asked questions
Are unarmed security guards effective?
Yes — for the incident types most properties actually face. Visible uniformed presence, early contact and documentation prevent far more loss than force resolves, and unarmed officers handle trespass, loitering, parking and after-hours access problems every night.
How much do unarmed security guards cost near Sacramento?
Unarmed coverage typically runs at the lower end of the $28–$45 per officer hour band, and is meaningfully cheaper than an armed post. Rates are flat hourly with no holiday or dispatch surcharges.
Are your unarmed guards licensed in California?
Every officer holds a current BSIS guard card and works under our California Private Patrol Operator license, PPO #122730. Registration numbers appear on the shift log so you can verify who worked your property.
When should I choose armed instead of unarmed?
Armed coverage is appropriate for cash handling and transport, high-value inventory, dispensaries, and posts with a documented history of violence. Everywhere else, unarmed is the lower-risk, lower-cost choice — we will tell you honestly which one your site needs.

After a break-in in Sacramento
What happens in the first 15, 30 & 60 minutes
This is the typical response workflow after you reach live dispatch — not a promise of police or officer arrival at a fixed time. We never replace 911, fire, or medical responders.
First 15 minutes
1. Make the scene safe
Call 911 for a crime in progress or anyone in danger. Do not enter a damaged building or touch evidence. Once you reach our live dispatch team, we confirm the address, what happened, whether anyone is onsite, and the safest next step.
By 30 minutes
2. Build the response plan
A supervisor reviews the breach, police report status, access points, and the vulnerable hours. We confirm the coverage window, coordinate board-up or property management contacts, and document the incident details for your records.
By 60 minutes
3. Start visible protection
When coverage is available and authorized, an officer begins the agreed response: holding the breach, checking the perimeter, deterring secondary theft, and creating the first patrol report. Arrival times vary with location, traffic, staffing, and police direction.
