unarmed security guards Services You Can Trust 24/7

Dependable coverage starts with the right people. For unarmed security guards, National Protective Service fields licensed professionals trained to place licensed, firearms-certified officers where risk is real — high-value inventory, credible threats, or insurance requirements. Every armed officer holds the state-required exposed firearms permit, completes scenario training, and is background-checked annually. Behind it all: 450+ trained officers, 300+ protected client sites, and a 99% contract renewal rate.

Most commercial sites do not need a firearm — they need presence, judgment, and someone trained to lower the temperature of a bad moment. Unarmed officers handle the overwhelming majority of real-world incidents through de-escalation, documentation, and a calm, professional standard your customers notice.

Why Sites Choose National Protective Service

Our clients renew at 99% because the fundamentals never slip: officers show up trained, posts are supervised, and every shift is documented. Unarmed Security Guards is not a line item to us — it is the work our reputation stands on.

When Armed Coverage Is the Right Call

Armed officers make sense in specific situations: high-value inventory, cash operations, credible threat history, or an insurer’s requirement. In every other case, we will tell you plainly that unarmed coverage protects you at a lower cost. When armed coverage is warranted, standards go up with the stakes — annual requalification, scenario training, strict post orders, and supervisors who inspect, not assume.

Also Available: hire armed security guard

If your risk picture includes more than one exposure, hire armed security guard can run under the same agreement — one supervisor, one reporting format, one invoice. We will scope both in the same assessment visit.

Straight Answers on Pricing

Security pricing depends on a handful of factors: armed or unarmed coverage, shift hours, site risk, and contract length. Rather than publish numbers that fit nobody, we quote after a short conversation about your site — and the quote is firm, itemized, and free. Multi-site programs and longer contracts earn meaningful volume pricing, and we will always tell you when a lower-cost option covers your risk just as well.

Credentials You Can Verify

We put our licensing where anyone can check it: every post is staffed by California BSIS-licensed officers (PPO 120545), and our team follows professional standards aligned with ASIS International, the leading association for security management professionals; you can verify our California PPO license 120545 directly on the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) registry. That verification-first culture extends to exposed firearm permitted guards across every engagement.
