When speaking of our guard service, most companies are concerned with budgets. What they need to realize is “ you get what you pay for “. Funding for a warm body is not, at all, cost effective. Lancaster would sit down with your company to listen and determine what exactly are your security needs, with a cost effective approach. The assessment of your site would consist of determining how many guards would be needed to properly secure your facility. Upon completion of most assessments, the number to properly secure the facility with our guards is less than the current number of guards the facility is utilizing. The company has to have the mind set for the cost of five of their guards compared to three of our qualified and experienced guards. Our pay rate is commensurable to the quality and experience that each guard attains.
