Security cameras and fences are great, but there is something to be said for the human element of perimeter security. Guards can provide insight, critical thinking, and experience that machines just cannot match. If your business is having security problems, you should seriously consider hiring uniformed security officers to patrol your property or be stationed at points of entry. Here are three reasons to hire uniformed security officers to protect your business.
1. Uniformed Security Officers are Well-Trained
The security guards employed by CES Security go through comprehensive in classroom training before they report to duty. After their initial training, our guards go through on-site training and periodic refresher training. This helps ensure that our guards meet our standards for excellence in performance. Because of our strict training requirements, our guards are fully equipped to meet any challenge they face while guarding your property. From looking for suspicious activity on patrol to watching over points of entry on the perimeter, our uniformed security officers can do it all.
2. A Visible Security Presence can Deter Crime
Fences, cameras, and turnstiles are all great ways to show potential intruders and criminals that you take security seriously. Unlike safety equipment and architecture, guards can react to security concerns in real time. When criminals see uniformed security officers, they know that gaining entrance to private property, committing vandalism, or stealing valuables from your business will be much harder than targeting an unprotected property. Visible security measures of any kind can help deter criminal activity, but uniformed security officers are able to back up their presence with experience and training.
3. You Cannot Put a Price on Safety
While it may seem cheaper at first to install a fence and hope that criminals stay away, hiring uniformed security officers is one of the wisest investments you can make for your business. Our security services are reasonably priced, especially when you consider the equipment, valuables, and information that are at risk without proper security. When you work with CES Security, you are not just hiring a security company. You are also buying peace of mind.
