Santa Ana Lock Up & Alarm Services for Improved Business Security
Closing is a critical time for many Santa Ana businesses to ensure that sufficient safety and lock up procedures are in place and closely followed to reduce the chance of break-in, trespassing, vandalism, and theft. Due to tight budgets and limited resources, these businesses often depend on their employees to perform all of their closing-related duties, including balancing the register, checking that everyone has left the building, all entry points are closed and locked, all valuables are secure, and that the office and/or building is properly locked. By having an American Shield guard provide lock up and alarm services, your employees can focus on wrapping up your primarily business operations, and you can enjoy the peace of mind in knowing that a security professional is 100% committed to properly securing your building. Call today to learn more about American Shield's lock up and alarm services for Santa Ana commercial properties. We'll customize our services to your specific needs and budget.
Foot & Bike Mobile Patrols, Santa Ana
If you have a moderately sized property in Santa Ana with a lot of foot traffic, hidden corners, and/or smaller pathways that needs to be monitored and protected, consider American Shield's foot and bike mobile patrols. Like vehicle patrols, foot and bike patrols are highly cost-efficient but also very effective as a criminal deterrent. However, many of our Santa Ana clients will choose foot and bike patrols over vehicle patrols when they want a more approachable security presence. No matter which type of security presence you wish to establish, our mobile patrols are always performed by BSIS-licensed, highly trained security guards. Call today to learn more.
Santa Ana Mobile Vehicle Patrol Services
American Shield offers its clients the highest quality mobile patrol services in Santa Ana. Our mobile patrols are performed by BSIS-licensed security guards, who are extensively trained in how to monitor large private properties using patrol cars. Patrol car surveillance is particularly effective as a visual deterrent whether you employ this service on a regular or as-needed basis. Generally, our patrols are performed by armed or unarmed guards who drive clearly marked patrol vehicles around your Santa Ana property. These patrols are performed at random times, following an unpredictable path, that meets the level of surveillance your site requires. Call us today to discuss your mobile patrol needs in Santa Ana.
Santa Ana Special Event Security Guards
In order to put on a successful event, an event organizer must take the time to develop a plan for safety and security. As such, an event's safety and security plan generally considers ways to discourage unruly or unlawful behavior, how to manage large crowds, what to do in the event of a fire, how to control site access, how to promote parking lot safety, and how to prevent and respond to other potential problems. To ensure that you develop a comprehensive safety and security plan for your Santa Ana event, work with the event security specialists at American Shield. We have nearly two decades of experience, a team of highly trained, heavily screened security guards, and a long list of satisfied clients. Our guards are BSIS licensed, and can provide the level of professionalism, customer service, confidentiality, and event security expertise you are looking for. Call today for a free quote.

MOST COURTEOUS AND TRUSTWORTHY SECURITY GUARD SERVICES
Our company received the most courteous and trustworthy security Guard services from American Shield Private Security, Inc. for our 27th Annual Orange County Heart Walk this last September 16, 2007. I was pleased that American Shield Private Security was so prompt and available to help us at such late notice, when we greatly needed their services. I appreciated their help, and will certainly use their services in the years to come.
Just wanted to commend you guys for your diligent work last night. There was a fire in our building and apparently your guard called 911. Thank God no one was hurt and there was relatively minor damage considering the circumstances . . .
