Cost-effective coverage
Visible patrols without the cost of a full-time guard
Mobile patrols are a highly effective visual deterrent to criminal activity and a cost-efficient alternative to full-time static guards. Our marked patrol vehicles and uniformed officers carry out randomized checks of your property, so anyone watching cannot learn a routine.
Each visit can include a drive-through of the lot, a walk of the perimeter, door and window checks, and a look at the areas where problems usually start: loading bays, garbage enclosures, parkades and back entrances. Officers note anything unusual and photograph damage or hazards.
Patrols are a good fit for properties that are quiet after hours, for sites spread across Surrey and the Lower Mainland, and for owners who want regular eyes on a building without paying for a guard through the night.
- One or several visits per night, set to your risk level
- Lock-ups and unlocks on request
- Combine with alarm response for 24/7 coverage

Where we work
Mobile patrol across Surrey and the Lower Mainland
Our patrol routes cover Surrey neighbourhoods from Whalley and Guildford to Newton, Fleetwood, Cloverdale and South Surrey, along with the industrial areas of Campbell Heights and Port Kells.
We run patrols in Langley, Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and Vancouver as well. Because routes combine several properties, adding a site near an existing route is often the most affordable way to get regular overnight coverage.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about notice, cost, coverage and how we work. Have a different question? Call us any time.
(604) 908-3487Is mobile patrol cheaper than a full-time security guard?
Usually, yes. A patrol officer visits your property at random times instead of staying on site, so you pay for the visits you need rather than every hour of the night. We can recommend the right mix for your risk level.
How many patrol visits will my property get?
That depends on your site and budget. Some properties need one check a night, others several visits plus lock-up and alarm response. We set the number of visits with you and can change it at any time.
Will I know when my property was checked?
Yes. Patrol routes and times are GPS tracked, and officers log each visit in real time with photos of any incidents or hazards, so you receive detailed reports.
Do you respond to alarms as part of mobile patrol?
Yes. When an alarm goes off, our own 24/7 monitoring and dispatch centre sends a mobile patrol unit to your property.
