How to Start a Security Company

Improving people skills is the very foundation of establishing a security company; simply because you are in a business that deals primarily with people. Here are a few guidelines: brushing up on your people skills, stocking up on knowledge and training when it comes to security, completing all necessary paperwork and requirements, and checking your finances always.

According to the American Society of Industrial Security 2006, security companies have been on a continuous 6% rise since 2001.

This finding really comes as no surprise; more and more people are eventually turning to private security companies for safety measures instead of relying on government-issued security forces. Different security companies offer both products and services, or in some cases, even both to their clientele. Products usually include crime prevention measures like alarm systems, lock systems, and surveillance systems. Protection services usually include bodyguard services, private investigators, and repossession agents. With all the issues of crime prevention in our society, starting private security has become a very lucrative trade.

Here are a few guidelines if you have decided to try your hand at establishing your own security company.

First of all, you need to brush up on your people skills. Improving your skills in this area is the very foundation of establishing a security company; simply because you are in a business that deals primarily with people and you will be utilizing the services and skills of trained professionals. You must be discerning enough to know how to deal with your personnel (making them take the necessary requirements like psychological testing, background checks, putting them in areas where they most likely will excel, etc.); and how to deal with different clients and their varying security needs and issues.

Secondly, you need to acquire extensive knowledge and training in this kind of work. A good background in this field will help you decide what kind of security company you would like to set up because there are two kinds: one that sells products, and one that sells services. You can always combine both if you do have all the necessary requirements like financing, manpower, hardware, technology, etc.

Gone are the Hollywood days when “thugs” and “punks” on the streets suddenly become full-pledged bodyguards and security experts – or at least, the ones who carry on legal services. Federal law dictates that background checks, licenses, permits, policies, restrictions, and all other pertinent requirements are met, for both your company and your working personnel - before you even endeavor to open a security company. These checks are necessary because some of your personnel might be required to carry firearms as protection. Constant training and re-training, and having a broad scope on the different security issues will help establish your company for its efficiency. Security is a tricky business because nothing ever goes according to book descriptions. Every case is different, and there are several ways of handling them. Being always on your toes ensures your clients’ protection and this in turn, safeguards your company’s reputation.

Financing, as most businesses go, is the building block of your prospective security company. Enough finances can get you your own office space, can train your personnel, can buy necessary firearms and hardware, can fill out the required paperwork, and can help advertise the services of your company to interested parties. If you are on an extremely limited budget, you may want to decide first what kind of security you may want to provide and who will be your intended market; and probably stick to your initial goals until you actually make enough to expand.

Remember that even if you have a 2-man security operation as PPO or private patrol operator, your personnel still has to undergo substantial training, frequent re-training, has the possibility of carrying firearms in the line of duty, has to be covered by insurance, etc. – and all these entail financing.

    If you cannot spell, do not have a degree, do not have extensive law enforcement, military, security, or business management experience, then you have no business trying to start your own security company. The market is extremely competitive. Most if not all potential clients will award contracts to the lowest bidder. The minimum wage in most states is over $7 per hour. Most contracts are being awarded to companies who bid just under $11 per hour. After you pay your employees, rent, workers compensation insurance, social security contributions, taxes, general liability insurance, state license for your agency, state licenses for your employees, background checks for your employees, uniforms for your employees, drug tests for your employees, and your employee benefits. . . well, you do the math. Chances are that if you do not already know how to get started, your state's regulatory agency will probably deny you a license anyway based on lack of experience. It is also likely you will not be able to obtain the required insurance for the same reason.

  • thetruth said on March 26, 2009
    I'd like to say that security companies get paid 48.00 dollars per hour per security officer and often pay only $9 or $10 per hour.
    If they didn't make money after business expenses, then they wouldn't be in the business.
    and companies get a substantial discount in their fire/safety building insurance, if they have a 24/7 security. The discount is so great, that it often pays for the security staff.
    If your going to start a company, be fair and break the mold of greed. give the security field, the much needed respect it deserves.
    Union strong, union proud.

    Ok people, I have read enough posts on here to realize that no one knows what they are talking about. For someone who says I have a lot of good ideas and am starting a business plan for a armed security company is like a doctor trying to start his own practice without ever going to med school. If you don't have training in the area then don't bother trying, if you don't have money already, don't bother trying. A homeless man could write a business plan, it takes education/skill/money/and experience to start this kind of company. This is not a lemonade stand here people and not for everyone.

    I have started a small scale property management, maintenance and security company in Glasgow. Initially it was only property management and maintenance as i have construction background, but recently i secured a couple of security contracts of unoccupied properties. In process i have gained my SIA (Security industry Authority) License, First Aid, Health and Safety certification. If anyone interested in starting his business of same nature within UK, i can help him with initial advice and start up help required. (Including Financial advice) Also looking for dedicated partner who can take care of this running business, as am thinking of expansion plans. But cannot leave it without some trusted person. (I mentioned partner, not employee as he shall be only exerting best of his efforts if he also had something on stake). So if you want to discuss any further, you can email me (farhan_malik85@hotmail.com) and if possible leave your contact number. Regards, Farhan
