A Local Security Guard Service That Respects People and Protects Your Profits.

Why We Started Onward Security

Working as a security guard for almost a decade across hotels, events, and construction sites, I saw opportunities everywhere: faster incident response, clearer communication, better site knowledge, and more predictable outcomes.

Too often, clients dealt with high costs and slow response times. Guards faced low pay rates, unclear direction, and no backup when situations escalated.

After years seeing both sides, I decided that there has to be a better way.

Initiative

We attend kickoffs, walk the site, and brief the team so issues are handled before they escalate.

Intelligence

Staffing based on risk, not habit; de-escalation first; incident reports you can act on within 24 hours.

RAPID RESPONSE

24-hour actionable reports

Lean Operations = Better Value

Direct communication lines, streamlined operations, and resources focused on front-line service delivery. This means well-paid, well-trained guards with immediate management support and faster response times.

Living Wage Employment

Living wages drive measurable results: lower turnover, higher morale, and steadier crews who know your site protocols. This translates to fewer incidents, faster response times, and consistent service quality.

“You will always have a line to me, not a queue. If something is off, we fix it. That is how we have supported busy wedding venues, seasonal attractions with heavy foot traffic, and sites that cannot afford downtime.”

Licensed, insured, and accountable: BC Security Worker License, fully insured, WorkSafeBC protection for all personnel.
