How is your pricing structured?
We quote per site rather than from a rate card. The number moves with armed or unarmed coverage, the property type and where it sits in the city, the hours and shift pattern, any site-specific requirements such as access control or medical training, and contract length. Shifts start at a 4-hour minimum; contract length is agreed per site. A 30-minute walk of the property is free and you get a written quote within 48 hours — no one can price a site accurately without seeing it. Already holding a written quote from another licensed California provider who walked your site? Send it with your request and we will work to match it. Instant online estimates are a different thing — they are produced before anyone has seen the property, and they move once someone does.
