Armed Security for Your Business, Event, or Valuables

While an armed guard isn't right for every situation, there are certain situations where it may be necessary. If you're considering hiring an armed guard for your property, GoJoe Patrol is here to help you consider your options and make the best decision for the safety of your community.

Our armed security professionals have completed rigorous firearms training, qualifying them to carry and use a firearm while on duty. These security officers maintain similar responsibilities to our unarmed security officers but with the added capability of armed response when necessary.

When is Armed Security Necessary?

Security officers have various tools, including flashlights, batons, and a commanding presence, which can prevent and stop threats. However, some high-risk environments may require an extra layer of protection. Some examples of when armed security may be necessary include:

  • High crime areas
  • Valuable assets on the property
  • High-profile individuals or events
  • Properties with a history of violence or threats

If you're unsure whether armed security is necessary for your property, our team at GoJoe Patrol can help assess your situation and provide professional advice. We understand that every situation is unique and take a personalized approach to each client.

Our Security Is Armed But Approachable

At GoJoe Patrol, our armed security guards are trained to use firearms only as a last resort. Their presence is primarily a deterrent to potential threats and is never meant to intimidate customers, guests, or employees. Our security officers undergo Joe's signature training in hospitality and de-escalation techniques to maintain the highest standards, ensuring they can handle conflicts with calm professionalism.

Officers learn advanced de-escalation, crisis management, and communication skills to handle tense situations without force. They're also trained in escalation protocols for rare situations requiring a firmer response. This balanced approach ensures our guards maintain a welcoming environment while being ready to protect and serve when necessary.
