SOLUTIONS & RESULTS

 

In this uncertain world, you can trust our team of experienced professionals to offer you and those you hold dearest, the best security. Our expertise is unmatched with a solid reputation for dedication and commitment to schools, places of worship and personal security.

ABOUT US

We are not a mass employer of security guards but instead recruit, select, and train only those individuals whose orientation and motivation are in congruence with our Mission Statement.

​

​All Armed Guardian Security armed security guards are retired New Jersey Law Enforcement Officers with at least 20 years of experience. These guards bring with them decades worth of real-world experience. Over their careers these guards will have had extensive, but different trainings and education. All the guards will have been instructed annually in the New Jersey Attorney General’s Use-of-Force guidelines and have been required to have qualified with their pistols bi-annually throughout their careers.

Armed Guardian Security is dedicated to providing safe environments where people can come to worship, learn, gather and leave their worries behind. We are honored that our clients place their trust in us and we take pride in protecting our charges.

 

  • With decades of law enforcement background, real world experience and training, our team is more than ready to meet your security needs. We work closely with our clients' uniquely individual needs while mitigating risk and reducing exposure to threats.
