Safeguard On Demand provides professional security guard services in Tustin, California, from our headquarters at 200 N Tustin Avenue in Santa Ana, less than three miles from Old Town Tustin. No city we serve is closer to home. Our leadership, dispatch team and field supervisors work minutes from the Tustin city line, so a new post can be walked the same day, an officer can be relieved without a long drive, and you can sit down with the people who manage your account. We protect retail centers, business parks, auto dealerships, apartment communities, construction sites and historic properties with armed security guards and unarmed security officers.
Tustin is home to about 78,000 residents and to Tustin Legacy, the 1,600-acre redevelopment of the former Marine Corps Air Station that now holds The District at Tustin Legacy, thousands of new homes and a growing list of public facilities. California Department of Justice figures show that larceny-theft accounted for more than four of every five property crimes reported in Tustin in 2024, even as vehicle thefts fell by about a third. Our solutions are built around where that risk actually lands, combining retail loss prevention, construction site security and mobile patrol on month-to-month terms.
Full liability and workers' compensation coverage, with certificates of insurance provided before the first shift.
Background-checked, BSIS-certified officers trained for your property type.
Live dispatch and an on-call supervisor every hour of every day.

These are the issues Tustin owners, developers and community managers raise with us most often, and the solution we design for each one.
Larceny-theft makes up more than 80 percent of Tustin’s property crime. The District, Tustin Market Place and neighborhood centers need visible officers who deter theft without slowing shoppers.
Big-box parking fields at Tustin Legacy have drawn illegal street-takeover gatherings and late-night loitering. Patrol checks, trespass enforcement and incident reporting keep lots under control.
Ongoing building at Tustin Legacy puts materials, equipment and partially finished homes at risk. Overnight guards, fire watch and solar camera towers keep projects on schedule.
The 2023 fire that destroyed the North Hangar showed how quickly an unoccupied structure can be lost. Vacant and historic buildings benefit from fire watch and documented patrol rounds.
Auto dealerships, flex buildings and warehouses along the 5 Freeway and Red Hill Avenue hold valuable inventory overnight. Remote monitoring backed by patrol response protects it.
Neighborhoods in Tustin Ranch and Tustin Legacy need gate enforcement, parking rules, amenity checks and patrol schedules that residents can count on.
Every property type carries different risks. We match officers, post orders and patrol schedules to the way your Tustin property actually works, from weekend crowds at The District to overnight quiet on a construction pad.
Loss-prevention officers and parking patrol for The District at Tustin Legacy, Tustin Market Place and the shops and restaurants of Old Town Tustin.
Gate control, alarm response and after-hours patrol for offices, flex buildings and warehouses along Red Hill Avenue and Edinger Avenue.
Overnight lot patrol, key-control procedures and camera monitoring to protect vehicle inventory at the Tustin Auto Center and nearby dealerships.
Standing guards, fire watch and mobile surveillance units for residential and commercial projects across Tustin Legacy and infill sites citywide.
Lobby officers and after-hours patrol for professional offices, medical suites and financial branches along Irvine Boulevard and Newport Avenue.
Community patrol, gate enforcement and courtesy checks for Tustin Ranch, Columbus Square, Greenwood and the historic streets around Old Town.
Proximity changes how security is managed. Because our headquarters is a few minutes from Tustin, clients here get the shortest supervision loop in our network: unannounced post inspections happen more often, incident follow-ups happen in person, and a change to post orders can be briefed to officers face to face the same afternoon. That matters on sites that change week to week, such as a phased construction project at Tustin Legacy or a retail center heading into the holidays. Whether the answer is standing guards at a construction gate, marked vehicle patrols through a Tustin Ranch community or remote video monitoring for a dealership lot, the people who design your plan are close enough to watch it work.

Our Standards at a Glance

Tustin covers about eleven square miles of central Orange County, bordered by Santa Ana, Irvine and unincorporated North Tustin, with the 5 and 55 freeways meeting at its western edge. Old Town Tustin, centered on Main Street and El Camino Real, keeps historic storefronts, restaurants and small offices; Tustin Ranch, north of the 5, is a master-planned district of gated neighborhoods and parks; Tustin Market Place anchors the Jamboree Road interchange; and the Tustin Auto Center and the business parks along Red Hill Avenue carry much of the city’s commercial value overnight. Dealerships call for dedicated auto dealership security, and multi-tenant parks benefit from business park security that combines patrol with alarm response.
Tustin Legacy is the city’s largest security story. The former Marine Corps Air Station closed in 1999, and its land has since become The District at Tustin Legacy, several thousand homes in communities such as Columbus Square and Greenwood, the Orange County Sheriff’s training academy and new parks. The base’s two blimp hangars, built in 1942 from Douglas fir and counted among the largest wooden structures in the world, became a lesson in site risk when the North Hangar was destroyed by fire in November 2023; the South Hangar still stands. Construction and vacant land at that scale call for job site security, fire watch, vacant property security and mobile surveillance units that cover wide areas without a guard on every corner.
The crime data reinforces a theft-first plan. California Department of Justice figures show Tustin recorded 1,620 property crimes in 2024, of which 1,317 were larceny-thefts, while vehicle thefts dropped from 208 to 138 and burglaries from 186 to 165 compared with 2023. We answer that pattern with shopping center security, parking lot patrol and HOA patrol for the city’s residential communities. Most posts are staffed within 24 to 48 hours, with no long-term contract, and clients with properties across central Orange County work with the same supervisor in Santa Ana, Irvine and Costa Mesa.
Unarmed officers typically run $28 to $42 an hour and armed officers $42 to $65, depending on hours, site requirements and whether you need a fixed post or patrol coverage. Camera towers and remote monitoring can lower the cost of protecting large construction pads or dealership lots. Safeguard On Demand provides a free custom quote.

Tustin is a largely suburban city, and its main business risk is theft. California Department of Justice data shows larceny-theft made up more than 80 percent of property crime in 2024, while vehicle theft and burglary both declined. Visible, documented security coverage keeps your property from being the easy target.
Unarmed officers cover most retail, office, residential and construction posts in Tustin. Armed officers suit dealerships with high-value inventory, cash-handling businesses and other elevated-risk sites. We recommend the right level during a free on-site assessment.
Most Tustin posts are staffed within 24 to 48 hours of a confirmed request, and because our headquarters is minutes away, urgent needs such as fire watch or a post-incident guard can often be filled even faster.
