Frequently asked questions.
For standard events, 2-3 weeks lead time is ideal. Large festivals and high-profile events should be booked 4-8 weeks out. Emergency or short-notice coverage is available - contact us directly to confirm availability.
The industry guideline is roughly 1 guard per 100-150 attendees for low-risk events, 1 per 50-75 for higher-risk events with alcohol or late hours. We provide a specific recommendation after understanding your event details.
Both. Corporate and wedding events often prefer business attire or discreet plain-clothes presence. Concerts, festivals, and access-control-heavy events benefit from uniformed guards. You choose during planning.
Guards de-escalate where possible, remove the disruptive guest if required, coordinate with venue staff, and involve police only if necessary. Full written report delivered within 24 hours for your records and any insurance follow-up.
