Where do your Miami officers come from?

Our office is in Homestead, about 35 miles south of Downtown Miami, and we’ll tell you what that means both ways before you ask.

Where it works in your favour. We’re cheaper to keep and easier to reach than a downtown agency. Your calls land with the people who make decisions rather than a dispatch desk. And for a recurring post, a condo lobby, an overnight construction site, a weekly patrol route, the distance stops mattering the moment the officer is assigned to your building. That’s most of what we do in Miami, and it’s the work we’d rather have.

Where it doesn’t. If you need somebody standing in a Brickell lobby in forty minutes because your regular guard walked off shift, we are not your best call. We commit to 2 hours to respond and 4 hours to deploy, and we hold to it, but an agency with officers already posted three blocks away will beat us on that specific job. For an urban-core site with real same-hour exposure, what we’d actually recommend is a standing post or a scheduled patrol rather than emergency dispatch from 35 miles out.

We’d rather write that down than have you find it out at 2 AM.

Which Miami neighbourhoods do you cover?

All of the City of Miami plus the unincorporated pockets around it, under the same 4-hour window.

One-line note under the list, e.g. which unincorporated areas fall under county sheriff response.

What kinds of Miami sites do you staff?

Miami work is mostly vertical, condo and office towers, construction, and buildings currently spending money on structural repair, which is a bigger category in Miami-Dade right now than it has been in decades.

Condo and residential towers

Lobby, gate, garage and pool-deck posts, package rooms, contractor access, and the after-hours calls a building manager doesn’t want to take. Most of our residential and HOA posts here run unarmed Class D officers at $32 an hour, because presence and documentation do the work, not a firearm.

Buildings in recertification repair work

Miami-Dade runs its own building recertification programme alongside Florida’s statewide milestone inspection requirement under FS 553.899, and associations across the county are working through mandated structural repairs right now. That creates a security problem most boards never budgeted for: scaffolding and contractor materials on site for months, an access point that can’t be locked, and a fire alarm or sprinkler system taken offline during the work.

We cover both halves, construction site security for the materials and the open perimeter, and fire watch with hourly logged rounds while the system is impaired. If your building is heading into Phase 2 repairs, price the security line before the contractor mobilises rather than after the first theft.

Construction sites security

Copper, fuel, tools and generators, between the last trade leaving and the first one arriving. In Miami that’s usually overnight and weekend coverage on an active build, and a full-time post where the perimeter can’t be closed.

Offices, retail and commercial

Opening and closing coverage, lobby reception posts, loss-prevention presence, and after-hours commercial and business security for offices, plazas and warehouse space around the airport corridor.

Hotels and hospitality

Lot, lobby and floor coverage for hotel properties — guest-facing officers who don’t change how the property feels.

Event security

Corporate functions, galas, private parties and venue coverage. Event security runs a heavy Miami season, and your venue or insurer may require licensed officers as a condition of the booking.

Healthcare and clinics

Waiting-room and access-control posts for hospitals, clinics and care facilities, where de-escalation matters more than anything else an officer carries.

We’ll staff any of our fourteen service lines at a Miami address, including cannabis site security and transport and executive protection.

Miami security guard questions

The questions homeowners ask on the first call, answered the way we answer them on the phone.

How much does a security guard cost in Miami?

Unarmed Class D officers are $32 per hour and armed Class G officers $40, with a six-hour minimum booking. A vehicle is billed separately: $10 an hour parked on site, $14 running or on patrol, and less on multi-day contracts. We quote in writing and the rate is fixed before the first shift.

How fast can an officer reach Brickell or Downtown from Homestead?

We respond within 2 hours and are on site within 4, Brickell and Downtown included. Straight answer though: for a same-hour emergency in the urban core, an agency already posted nearby will beat us. For urban-core sites we recommend a standing post or scheduled patrol rather than emergency dispatch.

Armed or unarmed: what do Miami condo buildings usually need?

Most Miami condo and HOA posts we staff run unarmed Class D officers on lobby, gate and pool-deck access control. We recommend armed Class G where there’s cash on site, high-value inventory, a documented threat, or an insurer requiring it. Our supervisor advises during the free assessment and you can change it later.

Do you provide fire watch for Miami high-rises?

Yes. When a building’s alarm or sprinkler system is impaired, the fire code generally requires a watch until it’s restored, and the fire marshal can order the building closed without one. We deploy within 4 hours, log rounds hourly, and hand over a written log for the association’s records and its insurer.

Can you cover a building during recertification repair work?

Yes, and it’s two jobs rather than one. Contractor materials and an open perimeter need construction site coverage; a fire system taken offline during the work needs a fire watch with logged rounds. We quote them together and tell you honestly which months need both and which need only one.

Which nearby areas do you also cover?

We dispatch from the same Homestead office across the whole county — Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Hialeah, Doral, Kendall, Cutler Bay, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, Aventura, Miami Gardens and Medley — then south through Homestead and Florida City and out to the Keys. Our full service area has the county-by-county detail.

Is there a minimum booking length?

Six hours. That applies to one-off bookings and to the first shift of a new contract. Shorter coverage isn’t something we’ll quote, because travel and setup don’t shrink with the shift — you’d be paying more per hour for less protection. For genuinely short needs, a scheduled patrol usually works out better.

Do I pay extra for a vehicle?

Only if the post needs one. A condo lobby doesn’t, so you pay the officer rate alone. A patrol route does, and it’s $14 an hour with the engine running or $10 parked on site, dropping to $12 and $8 on multi-day contracts. We tell you which your site needs during the assessment.

Are your officers licensed, and how do I check?

Every officer holds a Florida Class D licence, plus Class G for armed posts, and completes 40 hours of field training before working alone. Verify us in the FDACS licence database — Security Agency Licence B 3500420 and PI Agency Licence A 3500419. Check any company you’re considering the same way.
