Why Your Business Needs Armed Security Guards

Our armed guards know how to handle a variety of situations with the protection of your people and your property as their number one priority.

​

In general, the presence of an armed security guard who is in possession of a weapon will deter possible aggressors from making dangerous threats or engaging in criminal behavior on your property. Armed guards also set the tone for others that safety and security is taken seriously on the premises. Alarm and monitoring systems can’t do that. Armed guards provide a level of safety that is second to none.

​

Our guards will know exactly how to deal with the threat, using their specialized training and knowledge to act quickly and appropriately. Not only are Blue Line Security Groups officers highly trained in the use of weapons and firearms, but they also receive training in conflict resolution and other de-escalation tactics to allow for the possibility of a peaceful resolution.

​

​

  • Threat assessments

  • Conducting foot and vehicle patrols

  • Event and property access

  • Communicating with law enforcement

  • Providing assistance to the public

  • Reporting and logging security events

  • Assisting management in security tasks as needed

​
