24/7 Response
We at A.C.T. Guard understand the importance of a swift response. When your need arises, a response is minutes away. We are ready to receive your instructions and dispatch a security officer to your location within minutes.
Retail Alarm Response
Several retail locations utilize this service to ensure that they have a reliable security company able to respond to any alarm, at any of their locations, 24/7. The responding officer will approach with caution, examine the perimeter, check all doors and windows, and ensure there has been no tampering or vandalism. Some clients grant us access to their locations so that we may enter the premises and do an interior check as well. We are able to inspect and ensure that there has been no tampering with site and the customer assets. Once the site has been secured, we reset the alarm and arm the location.
ATM Response
Another example of response is an ATM Response, when an ATM machine has a technical problem, the company dispatches a technician to service it. This is an urgent need as these machines need to be operable 24/7. The technician will need an armed security officer to stand by his side, given that he would have to open the machine and be exposed to public space with access to large quantities of cash. Within 60 minutes, an armed A.C.T. Guard officer will be wherever the technician is and be able to secure a soft perimeter for the technician to work. This process is handled delicately with highly experienced individuals.
Property Patrol Checks
Many times a business complex or an apartment complex don't need a dedicated, standing guard on a regular basis. They may have temporary problems that need service on short notice, for a short period of time. A.C.T. Guard will provide patrol hits where a site is visited a certain number of times a night, at random times and days. The random element keeps those that want to cause harm guessing. Once on site, the patrolling officer would inspect the full perimeter, do some minor checks and investigate any sensitive areas. Private residences, shopping centers, mall parking lots, business complexes are all examples of industries that utilize this service.
Our 24/7 command center guides the officer and remains on standby in case law enforcement, or the client needs to be contacted in case of an emergency. A short report is generated and emailed to the customer as reference. We operate an efficient team 24/7, that is ready to assist and respond to your needs. Call us now for a custom solution that fits you.

We DO NOT teach basic tactics here at A.C.T. Guard, simply because we have no true idea what basic tactics are. If the tactic ISN'T combatantly defensive, then why learn or teach it.
We ONLY teach combatant moves that are drastically effective. All designed to defend your person with maximum effect & intention. Created for the worst of situations and elevated through the minor of incidents.
We teach our A.C.T. Guard to not only defend themselves against a bigger, meaner & stronger opponent of a solo attacker or multiple.
We here at A.C.T. believe that the most important thought for a person to remember when considering self protection is, how important is your life? Is it more important to you than the personal safety of your attacker or attackers. Elevate your self necessity of own personal self worth and safety.
Life is only as important as you choice to make it. Freedom is free until someone tries to take that freedom from you. That day, will you lay down..or will you stand up & fight.? We give you the skills to no longer fear the unexpected, by making it expected at all times.
Once fully trained as an A.C.T. Member, you shall be elevated to the status of "Active A.C.T. Guard Agent". This will connect you forever to the circuit of trained citizens united in a goal of self protection and well being.
It's time to stop living in fear.
If you are attacked by one lone attacker with a non shooting weapon, such as: Knives, Bats, Pipes, ETC.
Hand to hand combat skills are nice and very effective, but are you sure they are for you & that they are your 1st and only move.
This takes a lot to pull off & it is the simplest of moves next to a kick or running. And yet it takes one very important thing to pull off. A lack of distance.
Are you sure you want to get this close to your attacker? Are you really that confident in your skills & are you that careless with your own life?
OR
If you are attacker by one lone attacker with a non shooting weapon, such as: Knives, bats, pipes, ETC.
Like we said, hand to hand combat skill are nice, but distance is better and much more safe for your personal being. Well as options go.
Like the old saying goes, "Don't bring a knife to a gun fight..or anything other than a gun, to a gun fight.. or you'll literally be on the wrong end of a bullet of any caliber.
And if they choose not to comply, we teach/train you to put your attacker down. This is the only way to insure the best odds of your own personal safety. If you want to worry about your attacker, then perhaps you should invest in criminal counseling instead of self protection from said criminals.
Life is about choices, our A.C.T. Guard Agents choose self over said criminals. They either get down or we
PUT THEM DOWN!
Law Enforcement officers serve in order to protect, therefore swearing to Protect & Serve all citizens within their jurisdiction. We at A.C.T. Guard are not agents of protection such as law enforcement officers are. If we choose to dedicate out skills and lives to protecting others, then that is a personal choice by said A.C.T.Guard Agent. The only true requirement of any A.C.T. Guard Agent is that they protect themselves over ANY situation. By doing this, it enables the Agent to make up their own mind as to whether someone or something else is more of worth to said Agent, than their own personal life.
