Service Information

Unarmed Security Guard Services Overview

GuardEX provides unarmed security guard services in New Jersey for sites that need professional on-site coverage, strong policy enforcement, and a steady deterrent without introducing a higher-force posture. Unarmed guards are ideal for day-to-day security tasks like lobby and desk coverage, visitor check-in, credential verification, and maintaining order in shared spaces.

Our team focuses on visible presence, routine patrols, clear communication, and detailed reporting. Guards follow post orders, de-escalate common issues, assist staff and residents respectfully, and escalate concerns through the proper channels when needed.

We offer staffed posts, after-hours coverage, weekend shifts, and short-term assignments across NJ to keep your property secure and running smoothly.

Are Unarmed Security Guards the Right Fit for Your Site?

Unarmed security is a strong match when a site needs consistent coverage, controlled access, a professional presence, and fast communication while keeping daily operations approachable for employees, tenants, residents, customers, and visitors.

  • A visible deterrent and consistent patrol routine
  • Visitor or vendor check-in and controlled entry points
  • Rule enforcement for parking, loitering, and restricted areas
  • Clear incident documentation and fast communication to management

The GuardEX Planning Model

How GuardEX Builds Reliable Security Coverage

Security is only as strong as the process behind it. GuardEX follows a proven planning model that ensures every post is built around your property, your risks, and your expectations.

1

Understand the Site

We start with a thorough site assessment to understand your property, access points, visitor flow, risks, post expectations, and escalation contacts.

2

Train to the Post

Officers are trained on site-specific procedures, post orders, reporting expectations, and backup coverage protocols before they go on duty.

3

Document the Work

We use technology and proven processes to capture Daily Activity Reports, incidents, guard tours, photo notes, and supervisor review.

4

Stay Responsive

Field supervision, backup coverage, service reviews, and clear escalation procedures help us respond quickly and keep your site protected.

A clear plan. Trained officers. Documented activity. Responsive support.That's the GuardEX difference.

Our Operating System

Built on Standards.Supported by Technology.Focused on Accountability.

GuardEX combines qualified personnel, site-specific post orders, technology-supported reporting, backup planning, field supervision, and defined escalation procedures to deliver security coverage that is visible, documented, and responsive.

Security Reporting You Can Review

Security activity should be easy to verify. GuardEX uses patrol, checkpoint, and reporting workflows to show what occurred on site, when duties were completed, and how exceptions or incidents were handled.

  • QR or NFC checkpoints with time-stamped scans
  • Daily activity reports, incident reports, and photo documentation
  • Supervisor review and follow-up on missed or incomplete tours
  • Custom patrol routes, frequencies, checkpoints, and report categories
  • Reviewable records for approved client contacts
