Unarmed Security Guard Services in Georgia

Tovey & Tumlin provides professional unarmed security personnel for businesses, properties, facilities, construction sites, events, organizations, and other locations requiring a dependable security presence.

PROFESSIONAL SECURITY PERSONNEL

Professional Security Personnel You Can Depend On

Unarmed guards can provide a consistent, professional security presence while carrying out clearly defined responsibilities specific to your property or operation. Tovey & Tumlin works with each client to understand the property, operating environment, schedule, responsibilities, and expectations for the assignment.

Depending on the Assignment, Guards May Support

  • Fixed security posts
  • Access control
  • Entry and exit monitoring
  • Visitor screening and check-in
  • Gate and checkpoint coverage
  • Lobby and reception security
  • Property observation
  • Visible security presence and deterrence
  • Monitoring designated areas
  • Supporting site rules and access procedures
  • Reporting incidents or unusual activity
  • Directing visitors, employees, vendors, or contractors
  • Event and crowd-area security support
  • Overnight and after-hours coverage

Duties are based on the particular assignment and established post orders — not every guard performs every responsibility.

ON-SITE RESPONSIBILITIES

Security Coverage Built Around Your Site

A professional security guard assignment should not be treated as a generic person sitting at a post. A guard's responsibilities should reflect the actual needs of the property and the client. The exact duties are established around the site and the assignment.

SCALABLE COVERAGE

From Temporary Coverage to Year-Round Security Teams

Security needs are not all the same. Some clients may need one guard at one post for a defined period. Others may require multiple guards, multiple posts, extended hours, overnight coverage, recurring schedules, or continuous security operations. Tovey & Tumlin has experience supporting both large temporary operations, including major sporting events, and ongoing year-round security teams.
