Armed Security Guards services in Pasadena
Pasadena has licensed cannabis retailers, jewelry and high-value shops in Old Pasadena and on South Lake Avenue, medical and office buildings, and churches and private events that want an added layer of protection. Large events near the Rose Bowl and the Arroyo sometimes call for armed officers alongside unarmed staff. APS provides armed security guards in Pasadena with officers who are professional, calm and comfortable in a historic, upscale setting.
Every APS armed officer holds a California BSIS guard card and a BSIS exposed firearm permit, backed by firearms training and range qualification. Our officers are trained to prevent trouble by being visible and approachable, and to defuse tense moments with de-escalation before anything else. Armed guard services in Pasadena include entry control, opening and closing coverage, cash escorts, church services and event posts. Every shift is documented with GPS check-ins, time-stamped photos and a Daily Activity Report.
