Gate + patrol: the pairing that works
A gate controls the entrance; it doesn’t see the back fence. The communities with the fewest incidents pair a staffed gate with randomized courtesy patrol inside — one vendor, one post order set, one reporting stream. We run both for HOAs we’ve served 3–5+ years across Southern California.
Relief coverage and no-show protection
The classic gate failure is the empty gatehouse. Our posts come with guaranteed relief coverage, a 24/7 dispatcher who answers when your manager calls, and field supervisors who show up unannounced — so the gate is staffed the way the contract says, every shift. Coverage across Orange County, Riverside, LA, San Diego and statewide.
Frequently asked questions
Can gate officers use our visitor management software?
Yes — officers train on your system (or we bring simple digital logs) before the first shift.
Armed or unarmed at the gate?
Nearly always unarmed — the gate is hospitality with authority. Armed is reserved for specific risk profiles after an assessment.
What happens when an officer calls out?
Relief coverage is built into the post: dispatch fills the shift and your manager is notified — the gate doesn’t go dark.
Do you staff 24/7 gates or just nights?
Both — 24/7 posts, overnight-only, and weekend coverage, with no long-term contract required.
Staff your gatehouse with officers residents actually like.
