Armed Security Guards services in Riverside
Riverside businesses that ask for armed coverage are often those that handle cash or high-value goods, warehouses in the Hunter Business Park area storing valuable inventory, churches that want protection during services, and venues near Downtown and the Mission Inn area hosting large events. APS provides armed security guards in Riverside for sites where the risk calls for it, and we are honest when a well-trained unarmed officer will do the job.
Each APS armed officer holds a California BSIS guard card and a BSIS exposed firearm permit, with firearms training and range qualification. Our officers are trained to prevent problems by being visible, greeting people and using de-escalation, and to call police when a situation goes beyond a guard's role. Armed guard services in Riverside include entry control, opening and closing coverage, cash escorts and event posts. Every shift is checked in with GPS and backed by time-stamped photos and a Daily Activity Report.
