Both are uniformed, trained in de-escalation and certified in First Aid and CPR. The difference is the level of risk the post is built for.

Unarmed guards

A professional, visible presence

Uniformed guards trained in asset protection and de-escalation techniques. They screen visitors, watch for suspicious activity, help staff keep a safe environment and report clearly.

03Questions

Guard questions

Do you provide armed and unarmed guards?

Yes. We provide uniformed armed and unarmed guards, and we’ll help you decide which fits your site during the consultation.

How are your guards trained?

Our guards are trained in asset protection and de-escalation, and every guard is First Aid and CPR certified. We also have a well-established training program that can be customized to the needs of your company.

Should I choose armed or unarmed security?

It depends on your site, what you’re protecting, your insurance and the people on the property. Many sites only need a visible, unarmed presence; some higher-risk posts call for armed guards. We’ll walk through it with you, often as part of a Security Vulnerability Assessment.

Do your guards work with the police?

Our guards report unlawful activity to facility management, take appropriate action if problems escalate, and assist local law enforcement and EMS when needed. Medallion is a private security company and is not affiliated with any law enforcement agency.
