What's included
A static guard is the most visible form of security on the market — and when staffed and supervised correctly, it's also the most effective. We post BC-licensed officers at your site for shifts ranging from a single 8-hour gate cover to true 24/7 staffing, with a named primary officer, a named back-up, and a duty supervisor monitoring every check-in. Officers arrive in branded Expandig uniform with body-worn ID, radio, flashlight and a digital incident-reporting device. Site-specific PPE is included at no extra cost. You receive a written shift report every morning, with photos and time-stamped notes — so you always know what happened overnight, even when you weren't watching.
