Safeguard On Demand provides licensed security guard services in Fontana, one of the largest cities in San Bernardino County, with an estimated 221,223 residents (U.S. Census Bureau, July 2025). Interstate 10, State Route 210 and Interstate 15 all cross the city, and that access has made Fontana a trucking and distribution center as well as a fast-growing residential community. Our armed security guards and unarmed officers protect warehouses, truck yards, medical campuses, shopping centers and neighborhoods from the foothills to the southern industrial district.
Kaiser Permanente is Fontana’s largest employer, and its medical center on Sierra Avenue is one of the largest healthcare facilities in the Inland Empire. Amazon and Target are also among the city’s top employers, carriers and third-party logistics firms operate across the south side, the speedway on Cherry Avenue occupies the former Kaiser Steel mill site, and Chaffey College is building a new Fontana campus. We support each of these environments with officers trained for industrial facility security, healthcare settings and active construction.
Fontana accounts are managed from our Inland Empire office in Corona, with 24/7 live dispatch, a dedicated field supervisor, GPS-verified patrol routes and daily activity reports. Owners and managers with sites in Rancho Cucamonga and across the Inland Empire can consolidate coverage under one agreement. We typically fill new Fontana posts within 24 to 48 hours, require no long-term contract and open every engagement with a free site assessment.
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 risks our Fontana clients ask us to solve most often, and the service that answers each one.
Truck yards and distribution centers hold loaded trailers overnight, often across acres of paved lot. Live-monitored cameras and scheduled officer checks protect freight between shifts.
Long fence lines along Slover Avenue, Jurupa Avenue and the I-10 corridor invite trespass and copper theft. Standing officers at gates and docks control who gets in.
Shopping centers along Sierra Avenue and Foothill Boulevard see shoplifting and parking-lot incidents. Foot patrol officers provide visible deterrence at entrances and walkways.
Apartment lots, medical-campus garages and retail parking hold hundreds of vehicles at once. Marked patrol vehicles make repeated, unpredictable passes.
Newer communities in North Fontana and established neighborhoods to the south want reliable after-hours patrols, gate checks and vacation watches.
Large medical campuses serve thousands of patients and visitors every day. Unarmed officers trained in de-escalation keep emergency and outpatient areas calm.
Every property type carries different risks. We match officers, post orders and patrol schedules to the way your Fontana property actually operates.
Gatehouse officers, seal and trailer checks, and overnight perimeter patrol for fulfillment and distribution buildings on the south side of the city.
Access control and yard security for carriers, cross-dock operators and truck parking facilities near I-10 and I-15.
Emergency department officers, parking-structure patrol and visitor screening for medical campuses and clinics along Sierra Avenue.
Loss-prevention officers and lot patrols for the Sierra Lakes area, big-box stores and neighborhood plazas throughout Fontana.
Standing guards, fire watch and equipment protection for residential tracts, new warehouses and institutional projects.
Community patrol, amenity checks and gate enforcement for neighborhoods such as Sierra Lakes, Hunter's Ridge and Coyote Canyon.
Fontana’s security needs follow its land use. North of the 210, the priority is residential patrol and retail parking; south of I-10, it is freight, fences and gates. Our officers are deployed accordingly, with marked vehicle patrols for multi-site routes and fire watch for warehouses and job sites with impaired fire systems. Every post runs on written orders, and your field supervisor reviews them with you before the first shift.

Our Standards at a Glance
Fontana is safer than many people assume, and the businesses here intend to keep it that way. Most of what our officers prevent happens at a truck gate or a dark loading dock, long before it would ever show up in a police report.

Fontana starts from a relatively strong position. SafeWise’s 2024 ranking of California’s safest cities placed Fontana 17th statewide, the highest of any San Bernardino County city, with about 2.8 violent crimes and 13 property crimes per 1,000 residents in the data it analyzed. In May 2025 alone, the Fontana Police Department logged 9,985 calls for service and averaged 4 minutes and 26 seconds on Priority 1 responses. Our security consulting team uses that context to focus private coverage where businesses remain exposed: freight yards, parking areas and after-hours access points.
The south side of the city, along Slover Avenue, Valley Boulevard and the I-10 corridor, is dominated by warehouses and truck terminals that need gate officers and yard patrol. Downtown and the Sierra Avenue medical and retail corridor call for visible officers and parking lot security, while North Fontana’s master-planned neighborhoods, from Sierra Lakes to Coyote Canyon, rely on community patrol and apartment and condominium security for their multifamily properties.
Our Inland Empire office in Corona also supports businesses in Riverside, Corona, Ontario and San Bernardino, so regional portfolios can operate under one set of standards. Explore all of our service areas.
