Concierge security

Customer service and security at the front door

Your front desk is the first thing residents, tenants and visitors see, and the last line of defence against people who should not be inside. Hillcrest concierge security officers combine courteous service with the alertness of a trained security guard.

Typical duties include greeting visitors, managing sign-in, verifying contractors and deliveries, watching building cameras, answering resident or tenant questions and doing scheduled rounds of common areas, amenity rooms and parkades. Every post order is written with you, so your officers know your building and your rules.

Our officers are chosen for communication skills and a professional manner, and they are trained in First Aid and CPR, emergency response procedures and de-escalation.

(604) 908-3487
What is the difference between a concierge and a concierge security officer?

A concierge security officer provides the same professional front desk service, and is also a licensed, trained security guard who controls access, watches for problems and responds to emergencies.

Can concierge security cover overnight hours?

Yes. Our security services run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so we can staff your front desk for daytime, evening, overnight or 24/7 coverage.

Do your concierge officers patrol the building?

Yes. Scheduled rounds of common areas, amenity rooms, stairwells and parkades can be part of the post orders we write with you.

Do you provide concierge security for strata buildings?

Yes. We work with strata councils and property managers to provide front desk and concierge security for residential buildings.
