Security guard hourly rates in BC are not fixed, as they depend on the unique needs and risk profile of each property. In Vancouver, pricing tends to be on the higher end of the regional range due to high demand, urban density, and amenities surcharges.

We provide tailored solutions rather than one-size-fits-all packages. Several key factors influence the final cost for your property:

• Geographic Location: Rates vary across the Lower Mainland, with Vancouver commanding higher ranges compared to moderate rates in Surrey or Burnaby.
• Guard Qualifications: Our professional licensed security guards may have advanced certifications (such as ASIS International) which provide greater expertise but influence pricing.
• Scope of Service: Costs reflect whether you require 24/7 on-site presence, Concierge Services, Mobile Patrols, or integrated technology like Live CCTV Monitoring and Access Control Systems Installation.
• Site Risk and Timing: High-risk environments or shifts during holidays and weekends may involve different rate structures.

To ensure your peace of mind, we invite you to Build Your Security Quote for an accurate assessment.

Services are subject to site assessment and custom quotation; results and pricing may vary. Information is for general guidance and not a substitute for professional or legal advice.
