Security Guards Serving Texas
Texas is a big state, and we mean that literally. Over 30 million people call it home, and with that comes a whole lot of ground to cover when it comes to keeping businesses, events and communities safe. Off Duty Officers has been working across Texas since 1993, so we're not new to any of this.
We Know Texas Because We Work Here
There's a real difference between a security company that shows up and one that actually knows the area. Our guards are familiar with the cities and communities they're assigned to, and that matters more than people realize. Response times are better, threat awareness is sharper, and clients aren't spending time explaining local context to someone who's never been there before.
Texas has some pretty unique security needs depending on where you are. Houston's got the medical center, the port, and some of the busiest commercial corridors in the country. Dallas and Fort Worth are growing fast with construction projects and corporate activity everywhere you look. San Antonio draws millions of visitors a year and needs steady event and crowd coverage. Austin's festival and tech scene keeps things busy year round. And cities like El Paso, Laredo and Brownsville have their own set of considerations that require guards who are trained and ready for that environment.
We Cover a Lot of Ground
We're based in Grapevine which puts us in a good spot to serve clients all over the state. Whether you're in a major metro or somewhere a little further out, we can get qualified guards to you without a lot of hassle. We work with short-term and long-term contracts, so it's flexible depending on what you actually need.
If you've got questions or just want to talk through what kind of coverage makes sense for your situation, give us a call at 469-410-7799. We're happy to help figure it out.

Frequently Asked Questions About Security Guards in Texas
Can I request off duty police or military personnel?
Yes, and it's actually one of the things that sets us apart from a lot of security companies. We have off-duty law enforcement and military personnel available for assignments that call for that level of experience. It's worth mentioning when you call so we can match the right people to your situation.
What's the minimum number of hours you book for?
Most assignments have a minimum of 6 to 8 hours, depending on the type of job. We don't do two-hour bookings, so if you're planning around that, it's good to know upfront.
How far in advance do I need to book?
It depends on the assignment and where you're located in Texas. The more notice the better, especially if you need multiple guards. That said we can sometimes accommodate last minute requests depending on availability in your area, so it's always worth a call.
What's the difference between armed and unarmed security guards?
Armed guards are typically used when there's a higher level of risk involved, like certain corporate environments, VIP protection or locations that handle valuables. Unarmed guards are a good fit for a lot of situations like events, retail, construction sites and access control. Our specialists can help you figure out which makes more sense for your situation.
Do your security guards work overnight or on weekends?
Yes, we provide security coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays. Security needs don't run on a 9 to 5 schedule and neither do we.
Are your security guards licensed in Texas?
Yes, all of our security guards are licensed in accordance with Texas state requirements. We also have off duty law enforcement and military personnel available depending on the nature of the assignment.
