Protecting the Progress You Build • Preventing Delays and

Licensed, trained, and dependable security personnel providing 24/7 protection for properties, events, and communities throughout Los Angeles County.

Who we are

Every construction project in Los Angeles begins with vision a future space ready to support families, businesses, transportation, and growth. But that future can be threatened the moment a site becomes active. Unsecured job sites attract exactly the wrong kind of attention:

  • Thieves who target copper, tools, electrical components & machinery
  • Trespassers who cause damage or create dangerous liability
  • Vandalism that delays work and drives up costs
  • After-hours break-ins that disrupt schedules and budgets
  • Unhoused individuals who turn job sites into temporary encampments
  • Opportunistic crime on vehicles & secure areas

You invest millions into labor, materials, equipment, and deadlines.
Safety Host Unit protects that investment — every hour, every day, every shift.

When your project pauses, costs rise.
When materials disappear, progress stops.
When intruders arrive, liability explodes.

Construction security isn’t optional.
It’s what keeps your project moving.

Keep your investment protected.

Our Services

Overnight Security That Prevents Tomorrow’s Delays Most crime strikes job sites between 10pm and 5am.
Most crime strikes job sites between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., and that's when we shine. With flashlight and patrol patterns, motion checks in dark corners, zero-tolerance loitering enforcement, and rapid intervention, we keep your site secure overnight. Daily Shift Reports are delivered before your crew arrives in the morning, ensuring you're always prepared. You show up to no surprises: no missing copper, no vandalized equipment, no new trespassing, and no delays. That's security you can measure. As construction sites evolve, so does our approach. Safety Host Unit deploys tactical security coverage tailored to the current risk level, site layout, and phase of construction. Armed and unarmed standing guards are placed at critical zones—front gates, tool storage, active building interiors, and delivery staging areas. These guards control the choke points, ensuring no one gets in unnoticed.
Vehicle Patrol Units with Rapid Response Capability
Our marked patrol vehicles: Sweep perimeter zones and parking areas Watch blind spots & back-lot access routes React immediately to motion or disturbance Cover large commercial sites efficiently A moving deterrent = no predictable gaps for intruders.
Roving Officers — Mixed Patrol Pattern
For multi-block or spread-out job sites: Alternating patrol routes Randomized timing Full sweep & asset watch Checks on trailers, machinery & fence lines Randomized patrols create uncertainty for criminals. If they can’t guess your guard’s location, they can’t strike.

Tools, Materials & Equipment Protection

 

We protect your construction site from theft, vandalism, trespassing, and more. Our services include securing valuable assets like generators, copper, tools, heavy machinery, HVAC units, and fuel reserves. We also prevent threats like encampments, opportunistic intruders, and squatting. With rapid emergency response, we ensure that any incidents are documented and communicated to law enforcement immediately. Our team provides daily updates with photos, timestamped logs, and safety reports, keeping you informed at all times. Tailored to Los Angeles, our security adapts to the unique risks in each district, whether it’s high-visibility deterrence in South LA, perimeter lockdowns in Downtown LA, or night patrols in Hollywood. Security evolves with your build, from preventing trespassing and vandalism in the early phases to protecting tools and machinery during framing, and safeguarding appliances and fixtures in the final stages.

We also prioritize your reputation and project timeline. Delays from theft, vandalism, or security breaches can trigger OSHA scrutiny, raise insurance premiums, or damage client trust. Our integrated security system combines trained personnel with cutting-edge technology like live patrol logs, GPS tracking, and real-time alerts, so you’re always aware of what’s happening on-site—even after hours. Security isn’t just a service; it’s an investment that protects your bottom line.
