Affordable guard services near you

Pick the coverage that fits the budget — every option below is staffed by guard-card verified officers and documented with GPS scans and photos.

Mobile patrol (lowest cost per property)

One marked unit covers several addresses on the same nightly loop, so the cost per property drops. Randomized passes, GPS-scanned stops, photo report in your inbox before morning.

Unarmed standing guards

Uniformed, guard-card verified officers controlling access, monitoring activity and enforcing site rules. Cheaper than armed posts and right for most properties.

HOA & apartment courtesy patrol

Parking abatement, pool and clubhouse closing, CC&R enforcement and after-hours trespass — with a monthly packet boards can read straight into the minutes.

Construction & warehouse coverage

Gates, material yards and equipment rows overnight and weekends. Driver check-in, trailer seal checks and documented fence-line sweeps at industrial sites.

24 hour security guards

Three shifts, a named supervisor, written post orders for handoff and key control. A person answers dispatch at 3am, weekends and holidays.

Event, retail, hotel & restaurant

Short-term event staffing, retail asset protection, hotel lobby and restaurant closing coverage — booked by the shift, no long contract required.

Cheap security guard FAQs

What is the cheapest way to hire guards near me?

Marked mobile patrol. Instead of paying for an officer to stand on your property all night, a patrol unit makes randomized, GPS-scanned passes as part of a route it already runs — which is why it is the lowest cost-per-property option Summit Force Security Group offers. Sites that need a physical deterrent at all times still do better with a standing post.

How much do cheap security guards cost in Sacramento?

Pricing depends on hours, headcount, armed versus unarmed and how many passes a patrol route makes. Mobile patrol is billed per visit or per month, standing guards are billed hourly, and every quote is a flat written rate confirmed before the first shift — call 1-800-823-5337 for a same-day number.

Does cheap mean unlicensed?

No. Every officer is BSIS guard-card verified and background checked, and the company operates under California Private Patrol Operator license PPO #122730. An unlicensed guard is a liability, not a saving — always ask for the PPO number before signing.

Are the rates flat, or are there hidden fees?

Rates are flat and written into the quote. There are no separate charges for uniforms, radios, patrol vehicles, reporting software or standard travel inside the covered service area. Holiday coverage and last-minute emergency posts are quoted up front when they apply.

Is there a minimum contract or a long-term commitment?

No long-term contract is required. Coverage can be booked by the shift for events and short projects, or month to month for ongoing patrol and standing posts, and quotes carry no obligation.

How fast can guards be on site?

Dispatch is answered by a person 24 hours a day at 1-800-823-5337, with rapid response for alarms and trespass calls across the Sacramento region. Short-notice standing posts can usually be staffed the same day or next day depending on hours and location.

Do you offer armed as well as unarmed guards?

Both. Unarmed officers cover most properties at the lowest cost. Armed officers hold a BSIS exposed-firearm permit and are used where cash, pharmaceuticals, high-value inventory or a documented threat history justifies the higher rate.

What kinds of property do you cover?

Apartments and HOAs, retail centers, offices, warehouses and industrial yards, construction sites, hotels, restaurants, medical buildings, schools, churches, parking structures and one-off events.

Do I get reports of what the guards did?

Yes. Patrol stops are GPS scanned and every shift produces a written activity report with time-stamped photos and incident notes, emailed to you — HOA boards receive a monthly packet suitable for the minutes.

Are you insured, and can you name our property as additional insured?

Yes. The company carries general liability and workers' compensation coverage, and certificates of insurance naming your entity as additional insured are provided on request before the first shift.

Which cities do you serve?

Sacramento, Roseville, Elk Grove, Citrus Heights, Rancho Cordova, Folsom, West Sacramento, Carmichael, Fair Oaks, Rocklin, Auburn, Davis, Woodland, Vacaville, Fairfield, Antelope and the surrounding Sacramento, Placer, Yolo, El Dorado and Solano county communities.

Can guards work with our existing cameras and alarms?

Yes. Officers work to written post orders that can include alarm verification, camera walk-throughs, gate and key control, opening and closing procedures and escalation contacts for your monitoring company or property manager.
