Golden West Security – Industry Leader In Security Services

Golden West Security Officers are highly trained Professionals in the Security Industry. In addition to the forty hours of continued education mandated by BSIS (Bureau of Security and Investigative Services), Golden West Security officers receive training on a bi-monthly basis. Patrol officers and standing guards are managed by highly experienced Watch Commanders, an important feature that sets our services apart from other security companies. We manage everything through our sophisticated, fully-staffed command center which operates 24/7, 365 days a year.

Whether you’re planning a concert, corporate gathering, street festival, or private celebration, the success of your event depends on safety. Great music, catering, and decor mean nothing if your guests don’t feel
secure — or worse, if an incident disrupts your event.

That’s where professional event security comes in.

At Golden West Security Inc., we provide customized Event Security Services for gatherings of all types and sizes. Here’s what you need to know about creating a safe, stress-free experience for your attendees.

Events, especially public or high-traffic ones, are vulnerable to:

• Uninvited guests or gatecrashers
• Alcohol-related disturbances
• Theft or vandalism
• Medical emergencies
• Overcrowding or blocked exits
• Traffic and parking issues
• Potential threats or disruptive individuals

Even if nothing goes wrong, having trained security officers on-site helps prevent problems before they begin — and gives guests peace of mind.

1. Start Security Planning Early

Security should be part of your planning process — not an afterthought. Consider:

• Number of expected guests
• Entry points and access restrictions
• Alcohol service
• High-profile attendees or speakers
• Event location (public venue, private residence, etc.)

Pro tip: Work with your security provider to walk the venue in advance and identify risks before the big day.

2. Control Access & Screen Guests

At any event, it’s critical to control who comes in. Professional event security officers can:

• Check guest lists or tickets
• Perform bag checks
• Monitor VIP areas or backstage zones
• Stop unauthorized individuals at entrances

3. Provide a Visible Security Presence

Even the sight of a uniformed officer or roving patrol can deter problems like loitering, theft, or disorderly conduct. It also reassures attendees and helps enforce rules.

Depending on your event’s style, you may choose:

• Uniformed officers
• Plainclothes security
• Stationary post guards
• Foot patrol officers for roaming coverage

4. Have a Plan for Emergencies

A good security team should be trained in emergency response and know how to act quickly if something goes wrong. Make sure your provider can:

• Assist with evacuations
• Contact emergency medical services
• De-escalate verbal or physical disturbances
• Communicate clearly with event staff and law enforcement
