How much do security guards cost in San Francisco?

Standard pricing is $50 per hour per guard, with a two-hour minimum. The final rate depends on your location and the specifics of the job, and it is confirmed when we match you with the security partner who will cover your site.

How soon can you put a guard on site in San Francisco?

Tell us the day you need cover and we will come back to you within one business day with a quote and a matched partner. Longer notice gives you more choice of guard, so it is worth calling as early as you can.

Can I book unarmed, armed or off-duty officers in San Francisco?

You can ask for unarmed guards, armed guards or off-duty law enforcement officers. Unarmed guards suit most commercial sites. Armed and off-duty officers depend on state licensing rules and on which partners have that staffing available, so we confirm what you can have rather than promising it up front.

Do I have to sign a long contract for security in San Francisco?

No. We book one-off events, short-term cover of under a month, and ongoing programmes that run for months or years. The two-hour minimum is the only commitment on a single booking.
