Every officer is individually licensed and background-checked, works from a written post order, and files a daily activity report. Dispatch answers 24/7 — a real person, not a phone tree.

Providing Top-Quality Security Services for Businesses and Events in Colma

A security program is only as good as its accountability: written post orders, GPS-verified rounds, same-night incident reports, and a supervisor you can actually reach for businesses and events in Colma. With our top-quality security services, we are committed to protecting your assets and ensuring the safety of your employees, customers, and attendees.

Coordinated With Colma’s First Responders

Tiny Colma runs a surprisingly busy Colma Police Department (about 28 officers at 1199 El Camino Real) and its own Colma Fire Protection District, in operation since 1925. With a resident population near 1,500 but enormous daytime crowds at Serramonte Auto Row and the big-box centers, CPD publishes monthly Crime Bulletins tracking dealership and retail theft and runs a Business Emergency Contact Form for exactly these properties. Our dealership and lot officers coordinate with CPD non-emergency dispatch, register on that business-contact program, and provide photo-logged, time-stamped incident reports that speed police filings and insurance claims.

Common Security Challenges in Colma

Colma businesses face a distinct set of security challenges:

  • Auto dealership and lot security — dealerships along Auto Row hold high-value vehicle inventory that is exposed overnight.
  • Big-box retail loss prevention — large retail stores face organized theft and parking-lot incidents.
  • Overnight lot and perimeter exposure — expansive lots and cemeteries need patrol coverage.

We protect a range of local clients, including auto dealerships (Serramonte Auto Row), big-box retail, and cemeteries.
