Security Patrols

Security Patrols are a service offered by most local security guard companies.

Patrols are performed on buildings or sites that are in a high crime area at times of increased crime.

The types of patrols that are performed by security companies include the following:

Domestic Patrols -- performed while your home is unattended during the daytime or while you are on vacation.

Night Patrols -- usually performed on business or commercial premises, and also construction sites.

================================================================

The best security patrol companies use a system to guarantee. that they have attended your premises. Oversight Inc. offers a web-based guard tour tracking system called Guard Tracker that collects the exact location, date, and time your security guards made each guard tour. Web-based reports are available as soon as data is uploaded to your computer. We confidently offer the most simple, and cost-effective guard tour solution on the market.
