Not every business requires armed guards — but for some, having professional armed security on-site is not just a precaution — it’s essential.
Whether you operate a high-value retail location, pharmacy, or dispensary, protecting your staff, customers, and assets is a top priority. So, how do you know if now is the right time to invest in armed security services?
Let’s explore the key indicators.
1. You Handle High-Risk Inventory or Cash
If your business involves:
- High-end merchandise (jewelry, electronics, designer goods)
- Pharmaceuticals or controlled substances
- Large amounts of cash
- Cannabis products in licensed states
…you face a higher likelihood of being targeted.
Having an armed guard on-site significantly increases protection and serves as a strong visual deterrent against criminal activity.
2. You’ve Already Experienced Security Threats
Previous incidents such as:
- Theft or robbery attempts
- Aggressive or violent behavior
- Vandalism or trespassing
…are clear signs your current security measures may not be sufficient. Armed guards provide elevated protection and are trained to respond quickly to critical situations.
3. Your Store Is in a High-Crime Area
If your store is located in a neighborhood known for higher crime rates or after-hours activity, the risk of break-ins and disturbances increases.
In these environments, armed security sends a clear message that your business is secure and protected, reducing the likelihood of future threats.
4. Your Business Operates Late Hours or 24/7
Stores that remain open late into the night — or operate around the clock — face greater risks, especially during early morning or closing hours.
Alpha Security Bureau offers overnight and emergency armed security coverage, ensuring your store stays safe during its most vulnerable times.
5. Industry Requirements or Insurance Mandates
In industries like pharmaceuticals and cannabis, armed security may be legally required by local regulations or necessary to meet insurance policy standards. Ensuring compliance can prevent license issues or coverage denials.
