Most of the work involves on-site guards and mobile patrols. Guards stationed at a property watch activity, manage access points and deal with incidents as they come up. Patrol officers check entrances and parking areas on scheduled or random visits and write up what they find. Businesses looking for security services in Dallas can also arrange event coverage, crowd management and VIP protection.

"A property manager usually calls because something has changed, maybe a new tenant mix or a few break-ins in the parking lot," a company spokesperson noted. "We sit down with them, walk the site and work out whether a full-time guard makes sense or whether patrols will do the job. Events are planned the same way, starting with the entrances and expected crowd."

Beyond guarding and patrols, the company offers executive protection, risk assessments and active shooter preparedness for organizations that want a wider plan. Events can be staffed with uniformed or plainclothes officers depending on the setting. The business is American owned and BBB accredited. It has phone lines for the Dallas and Fort Worth area and for New Orleans, and its office is open on weekdays.
