One of the most common questions we hear from clients is ‘what are static security guards, and how do they differ from other forms of security?’.
Static security is a general term which covers a wide range of services. Static guards can be deployed to guard access points, equipment or assets, prevent incidents and deter would-be criminals, help keep crowds under control and ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible.
It’s often said that static security guards are your business’ first line of defense. But the truth is, they are so much more than that. They can provide peace of mind and protection in a host of different ways.
As their name suggests, static security guards are tasked with protecting a specific area or location.
That doesn’t necessarily mean they stay rooted in one spot – many static guards will patrol buildings or grounds, for example, as well as manning a front of house security desk.
