Keep residents safe and your community running smoothly with residential security that pairs hospitality with protection.
National Protective Service staffs condominiums, apartment towers, HOAs, and gated communities across San Francisco with BSIS-licensed officers who greet residents and guests, manage access, deter trespass and package theft, and respond to incidents professionally.
Choose concierge/front-desk, gatehouse, rover patrols, or parking enforcement, with armed coverage available for higher-risk environments.
Post orders are written for your property’s policies and amenities, supervisors perform unannounced checks, and you receive time-stamped, photo-rich reports.
We’ll tailor a plan that fits your community’s culture, risk profile, and budget.
Our officers are fully licensed by the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS), trained according to industry standards set by ASIS International, and work in close coordination with the Local Police Department to ensure rapid response and community safety. Whether you require threat deterrence, emergency response, or asset protection, our team delivers professional, discreet, and reliable security solutions tailored to your needs.
BSIS-certified personnel trained in customer service, de-escalation, CPR/First Aid, and building procedures.

Armed officers available for properties with elevated risks or incident history—deployed without disrupting community feel.
Coverage in Pacific Heights, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, Marina/Presidio, SOMA, Mission Bay, Dogpatch, Noe Valley, Castro, Sunset, and Richmond.
For communities with higher risk—recent incidents, high-value residences, or sensitive garages—armed officers provide elevated deterrence and faster escalation control.
Our armed team maintains a discreet, neighbor-friendly presence while operating under strict BSIS compliance and use-of-force policies. Typical posts include evening lobby presence, garage/parking coverage, targeted weekend patrols, and special event periods.
Post orders address visitor screening, perimeter checks, alarm response, evidence preservation, and coordination with SFPD when appropriate. We can blend armed hours with unarmed daytime coverage to balance optics, risk, and cost.
