Common Security Shortfalls at Logistics and Distribution Sites.
These environments are busy with activity, making them vulnerable to various security threats. Here are some common concerns faced by Logistics and Distribution Sites.
FAQs
Still questioning if security is worth it? Take a look at a few of our answers to questions we have received from local Los Angeles Construction Sites.
What measures can I take to prevent theft in my logistics facility?
To prevent theft, consider implementing a combination of security measures such as: Hiring Professional Security Guards - Trained security personnel can monitor premises and deter criminal activity. Installing Surveillance Cameras - CCTV systems provide real-time monitoring and can help identify suspicious behavior. Access Control Systems - Use keycards or biometric systems to restrict access to authorized personnel only. Regular Audits - Conduct inventory checks and audits to identify discrepancies and potential theft.
How can I ensure my employees feel safe in the distribution center?
To ensure employee safety, train staff to recognize and promptly report suspicious behavior, giving clear details like who, what, where, and when. Establish simple, written protocols for emergencies medical, fire, theft, or violent incidents with roles, a contact tree, muster points, and escalation steps. Make reporting easy and encouraged by offering multiple channels (e.g., hotline, QR form, or email), communicating a no-retaliation policy, and running short refreshers and drills so everyone knows what to do.
Do I need armed security for my distribution center?
Whether you need armed security for your distribution center depends on your risk profile: if you store or move high-value goods, armed officers can add protection; if the facility is in a high-crime area, armed coverage may further deter and respond to serious threats; and ultimately the choice should align with your business requirements and comfort level after assessing operations, policies, and risk tolerance.
How frequently should I review my security measures?
Review your security measures on a regular cadence: conduct comprehensive audits each quarter to test access controls, cameras, alarms, and post orders; perform immediate post-incident reviews after any theft, breach, or near miss; and stay current on emerging threats, local crime trends, and operational changes so you can update protocols, training, and technology promptly.
Can technology enhance security in my distribution center?
Yes, technology can significantly strengthen security in a distribution center by combining smart CCTV with motion detection for real-time alerts, role-based access control to manage and log who enters and exits, and integrated alarm systems that automatically notify on-site security and, when configured, local law enforcement. Together, these tools accelerate detection, enhance control, and enable faster and more effective responses.
Our Security Solutions
Most Used Solution
Unarmed Security Officers
Role and Benefits
On active construction sites in Los Angeles, our unarmed security officers serve as a visible deterrent against trespassing, vandalism, and theft of materials, while ensuring a safe environment for crews and visitors. They manage gated access by verifying badges and vendor credentials, logging deliveries, and escorting inspectors and guests. Additionally, they conduct random patrols of perimeters, laydown yards, and high-value storage areas to identify hazards and suspicious activity.This helps prevent delays, protects tools and materials, and enhances the professionalism of the site experience.
In the event of an issue, our officers follow post orders that outline clear incident instructions. The guard will then document them accordingly using physical and a digital incident report (if pictures and videos are used.) Our after-hours patrols further ensure the safety and security of the area during off-peak times.
Training
For Los Angeles construction sites, unarmed officers train in site orientation and safety (PPE, traffic/fall hazards), access control and credential verification for vendors and visitors, delivery logging and escort protocols, and patrol techniques for perimeters, laydown yards, and high-value storage. They practice after-hours lock/lighting/fence inspections and plain-language communications, as well as conflict de-escalation with California-specific legal limits (e.g., trespass) under (California Penal Code 602) and private person arrest (California Penal Code 837). Training also covers incident reporting with time-stamped photo documentation, evidence handling, and emergency procedures (medical, fire, utility). Finally, they learn your site-specific post orders to prevent loss, respond fast, and document thoroughly.
Budget-Friendly Solution
Mobile Patrols
Role and Benefits
Our mobile patrols conduct regular and randomized sweeps across your distribution and logistics site, checking perimeters, loading docks, yards, and access points to ensure all areas are secure and monitored. The unpredictable schedule strengthens deterrence by making it difficult for criminals to anticipate coverage. Because officers are already in motion, they can quickly reach alarms or incidents to contain issues early and minimize loss.
Technology Integration
Our mobile patrols utilize advanced technology for real-time reporting and incident tracking, ensuring you are always informed about the security status of your site.
Best For High Risk Areas
Armed Security Officers
Role and Benefits
For sites with heightened security needs, our armed security officers provide a decisive layer of protection, offering immediate threat management to safeguard personnel and assets. This is a powerful deterrent to organized theft, vandalism, and violent crime. They are trained to manage high-stress incidents with clear communication, disciplined tactics, and professional reporting, ensuring your logistics operations remain safe and on schedule.
Specialized Training
For high-risk logistics sites, our armed officers hold the required BSIS credentials, including a Security Guard Registration (“guard card”) with Powers to Arrest training, an Exposed Firearm Permit, and, when needed, a BSIS Baton Permit, providing a decisive layer of protection. Their training emphasizes de-escalation first, safe firearm handling with regular qualification, clear radio communication, and disciplined tactics, all grounded in California law: robbery (California Penal Code 211), burglary (California Penal Code 459), trespass (California Penal Code 602), vandalism (California Penal Code 594), grand theft (California Penal Code 487), disturbing the peace (California Penal Code 415), private person’s arrest when appropriate (California Penal Code 837), and avoiding unlawful brandishing (California Penal Code 417) or negligent discharge (California Penal Code 246.3). The result is strong deterrence and professional incident management that keeps your operations safe and on schedule.
