When it comes to security, you get what you pay for

This post will examine the characteristics that distinguish an elite security company from a standard one and explain why it is essential not to cut financial corners when choosing the right security company.

Have you ever had a negative experience with a security company in the past?

Maybe you have:

  • Hired a guard (or a group of guards) who have slept on the job?

  • Hired a guard (or a group of guards) who have been improperly supervised?

  • Hired a guard (or a group of guards) who appear to have little or no experience?

Whatever your experience may be, you will be all too aware of the negative impact this will have had on the overall security of your site. Moreover, it is a direct result of choosing a less expensive, standard security guarding service.

If you opt for a premium guarding service, you will notice that the overall security of your facility will be increased tenfold.

Premium security guarding companies are concerned about the well-being of their personnel. 

In general, low-cost security guarding companies are found to be guilty of the following:

  • Guards being underpaid.

  • Guards being overworked, sometimes carrying out consecutive shifts.

  • The inability to provide on-site oversight, which is critical.

The result will be a team of people who do not feel valued and unmotivated in any job situation, which will inevitably negatively impact their level of productivity. Moreover, who suffers a loss? Of course, you!

As a result of this, high-quality security guarding companies pay their guards fairly, organise shift schedules that are feasible and appropriate, and understand the importance of employing a team of supervisors who will visit the guards on your site on a regular and random basis.


The addition of on-site supervisors can help to improve the availability of security officers.

Supervisors are an invaluable asset to your security guarding service, and they will be on hand to visit your site regularly, assess guard performance levels, and keep an eye out for any changes to your site that may necessitate a change in service provision.

You can also reach out to them anytime, day or night, with any questions or concerns.


The advantages of hiring high-quality, licenced security guards are numerous.

Although premium security guarding services may be more expensive in the beginning, there are numerous advantages to choosing it over a less expensive alternative, including:

  • Guards who are happier and more motivated

  • A higher level of service quality

  • A solution that grows and changes in response to the needs of your sites

  • Potential savings over the long term
