Security Patrol Services
Protect Your Investment with Uniformed Patrol Officers
Visibility is a powerful crime deterrent. By their presence alone, uniformed patrol officers can help enhance your employees’ safety and reduce the risk of vandalism or theft on your property or at your facility. Allied Universal security officers wear uniforms that reflect their authority and professionalism.

Customized Patrol Services
Our patrol services are customized to meet your unique needs. Frequently, patrol officers are asked to lock and unlock facilities, turn lights and heating/cooling systems on and off, close windows, conduct drive-by security checks, provide after-hours security escorts, and respond to alarms. They also deter trespassers on your property. Should the need arise, patrol personnel should coordinate with local law enforcement.
Detailed Accounts of Each Patrol
Because knowing how your security officers are performing is important, we provide you with detailed accounts of each patrol. These include written reports and activity logs when situations are as expected, and incident reports when officers detect anything out of the ordinary.
Contain Costs While Enhancing Safety
Patrol services are a cost-effective alternative to dedicated on-site security officers. You can maximize their effectiveness by posting warning signs that say your property is “protected”, “monitored” or “patrolled.” Even if you already have security officers in place, patrol services can provide an extra boost in visibility. You may find that a patrolled area requires fewer officers during off-hours, thereby reducing your costs.
