Vehicle patrol services are scheduled and on-demand patrols of properties by BSIS-certified officers in marked or unmarked patrol vehicles, with every pass GPS-logged and documented. 247 Private Security operates a fleet of marked patrol SUVs and sedans covering Greater Los Angeles, Orange County, and Ventura County — providing scheduled patrols for HOAs and commercial properties, alarm-response dispatch, lockup/unlock services, and post-incident response coverage. Every patrol is documented with route maps, timestamps, and observations delivered to property management daily.
What vehicle patrol covers
- Scheduled multi-pass patrols — 2–6 random-timed passes per night for HOAs, commercial lots, multi-property portfolios
- Alarm response — BSIS officer dispatched to alarm activations under 90 minutes from Chatsworth
- Lockup / unlock service — officer secures property at end of business day and opens for staff at start of day
- Construction site night patrol — random-pass coverage of idle sites with copper, equipment, and material protection
- Vacation / extended-absence coverage — homes or properties vacant during owner travel
- Post-incident escalated patrol — increased pass frequency after a theft, breach, or vandalism event
- Multi-property route patrol — single officer covering 5–15 properties on a coordinated route
- Wellness check / property check — single-pass property check on owner request
What every patrol pass includes
- GPS-logged route — every patrol pass tracked by GPS with route map, timestamp, and dwell time at the property
- Perimeter walk — officer exits the vehicle and walks the perimeter at least once per pass; not just a drive-by
- Door / gate verification — checks that designated access points are secured per protocol
- Lighting / camera observation — flags non-functioning exterior lighting or camera blind spots for property-management follow-up
- Suspicious-activity check — observes for vehicles parked unusually, persons on property after hours, signs of attempted access
- Photographic documentation — any anomaly photographed and included in the patrol report
- Direct-to-911 escalation — officer calls 911 immediately on any sign of criminal activity in progress, then notifies client per protocol
- Written patrol report — emailed to property management each morning with route, observations, anomalies, actions taken
Patrol vehicles and equipment
- Marked patrol vehicles — branded SUVs and sedans with rooftop light bars (amber, not blue/red — California PPO licensee restriction) for visibility
