Uniformed Security

At Vest Security Services, our Uniformed Security Guards form the backbone of our protection strategy. These highly trained and dependable professionals are prepared to serve across a wide range of environments, including retail, industrial, commercial, and public sector spaces.

Our uniformed guards are more than just a visible deterrent—they are expertly trained to detect, de-escalate, and respond to potential threats with discipline and professionalism. Whether your site requires a consistent security presence or a heightened level of tactical readiness, we offer both standard and tactical uniformed guards tailored to your needs. When security matters most, trust one of Canada’s leading security companies to deliver dependable, around-the-clock protection.

At Vest Security Services, our approach to handling various situations is rooted in professionalism, adaptability, and respect. Our uniformed security guards are trained to begin every interaction with a strong focus on customer service—maintaining a calm, courteous, and helpful demeanor to ensure a positive experience for clients, staff, and the public. However, when a situation escalates or presents a potential threat, our guards are trained to transition from a service-oriented approach to a security-driven response. This includes using persuasive communication to de-escalate tensions, carefully assessing the situation, and becoming assertive when necessary. If the threat persists, we follow a structured escalation protocol—ranging from issuing verbal warnings and trespass notices to making citizen’s arrests when legally permitted. In cases involving criminal activity, our team coordinates closely with law enforcement and ensures all actions taken are in full compliance with legal and procedural standards.
