How Much Do Security Guard Services Cost?
The cost of security guard services can vary widely because every property and business has different security needs and risk levels. There’s no fixed price — the final cost depends on factors like the size of your site, the number of guards required, the hours of coverage, and any special skills or certifications needed.
Some of the main things that affect the price include:
Number of guards: More guards mean higher costs but better coverage.
Shift duration: Daytime, nighttime, or 24/7 coverage options.
Site complexity: Larger or high-risk sites require more experienced guards and resources.
Specialized services: Patrols, event security, reception duties, or armed guards.
Contract length: Short-term or long-term agreements may affect pricing.
Because of these variables, it’s difficult to give a “one price fits all” answer. The best way to know is to arrange a free consultation with our experts. We’ll assess your security needs and provide a tailored quote — ensuring your budget is respected.

How to Arrange Professional Security Guard Services for Your Property
Thinking about hiring security guards yourself?
If you’re comfortable managing contractors and want to save on service costs, it’s possible to organise guard services on your own.
However, if you’re not confident with vetting personnel, scheduling shifts, or ensuring proper coverage, hiring a professional security company is almost always the safer and more effective choice.
Below is a detailed step-by-step guide to help you decide and, if you choose the DIY route, get started the right way.
1. Planning Your Security Guard Service
Proper planning is the foundation of any reliable security service. Before hiring, take time to answer the following questions:
Why do I need security guards?
Common reasons include deterring crime, monitoring property, protecting valuable assets, or providing on-site response in emergencies.
What do I expect from my security service?
For example, if your goal is simple deterrence, you may need basic patrols. But if you require incident response, access control, or specialized skills, trained guards are essential.
How many guards do I need?
Requirements depend on property size, hours of coverage, and risk level.
What shifts and coverage hours suit me?
Decide between daytime only, overnight, or 24/7 services.
What is my budget?
Security guard services vary widely in cost. Finding the right balance between coverage and cost is key.
What legal or regulatory requirements apply?
Ensure your security team complies with local laws, licensing, and reporting obligations.
2. Selecting and Hiring Your Security Guards
Once your plan is complete and you know your requirements, it’s time to hire:
- Choose a reputable security company that provides trained, licensed, and insured guards.
- Specify your requirements clearly: number of guards, shift times, duties, and any special needs.
- Conduct background checks or ask the company for vetting information.
- Agree on contracts and service-level agreements to ensure accountability.
- Set up communication channels for ongoing coordination with the guard team.
3. Setting Up Monitoring and Supervision
Good security isn’t just about guards being present — it also involves effective management:
- Establish a chain of command and point of contact for guards on duty.
- Use digital tools or apps for real-time monitoring and reporting.
- Schedule regular briefings and feedback sessions.
- Ensure guards have clear instructions for patrolling, incident reporting, and emergency procedures.
- Test communication equipment and response protocols regularly.
4. Final Checks & Commissioning
Before fully relying on your security team:
- Review initial patrol logs and incident reports to confirm coverage.
- Assess guards’ familiarity with your property and procedures.
- Gather feedback from on-site staff or residents.
- Confirm compliance with any regulatory or contractual requirements.
- Make adjustments to shifts or duties as needed.
Let’s Talk
Hiring security guards yourself is possible if you’re organized and familiar with security operations. However, your property’s safety is only as strong as the reliability and professionalism of your security team.
Poorly managed security services can lead to gaps in protection, slow responses, and unnecessary risks. That’s why working with a professional security company is often more cost-effective and safer in the long run.

⚠ Risks of Not Having Security Guards
- Increased Theft & Vandalism – Without a visible security presence, properties become easy targets for criminals, leading to higher chances of burglary, shoplifting, and property damage.
- Poor Crowd Management During Events – In the absence of trained security staff, large gatherings can quickly become chaotic, resulting in safety hazards, uncontrolled entry, or even stampedes.
- Delayed Emergency Response – Without guards on-site, critical situations may go unnoticed or unaddressed until it’s too late, causing greater damage or loss.
- Unrestricted Access to Sensitive Areas – Offices, warehouses, or residential complexes without access control can allow unauthorized individuals to enter secure zones, putting assets and data at risk.
- Lower Employee & Resident Confidence – The absence of visible protection can make staff, tenants, or visitors feel unsafe, reducing productivity, morale, and trust in the management’s ability to ensure safety.
