What is a mobile security patrol?
A mobile patrol is a licensed security officer who drives to your property and checks it, rather than staying on site for a whole shift. Regular patrols help monitor all areas of the property and quickly identify any unusual activity.
What happens on a patrol visit
- Property checks: the officer inspects the premises for signs of forced entry, damage or anything unusual.
- Visible deterrence: marked, regular visits discourage break-ins and vandalism.
- Incident response: if something is wrong, the officer responds quickly and professionally.
Who uses mobile patrols?
- Businesses and retail premises that close overnight.
- Construction sites between shifts and on weekends. See Construction Site Security.
- Warehouses and industrial properties.
- Residential and strata properties that want regular after-hours checks.
Mobile patrol vs static guard
Mobile patrols cost less than a guard on site all night because you pay for the visits, not the whole shift. If your site needs constant access control or has very high-value assets, a static security guard may be the better choice. Many clients use both.
How mobile patrol pricing works
Pricing depends mainly on:
- The number of visits per night or week.
- How long the officer spends on site at each visit.
- The distance to your property.
- Any extra tasks (for example lock-ups or internal checks, if offered).
