  • Reputation & Reviews: Research client feedback, case studies, and ratings to assess reliability.
  • Customization: The best providers design security plans tailored to your location, risk profile, and operating hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at Ian.Dahlberg@Dahlcore.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Yes. Armed security guards in New York must hold a valid NYS security guard license and complete specialized firearm training. They’re also required to register with the Division of Licensing Services and undergo background checks. 


Response times vary by provider, but most reputable firms guarantee rapid on-site response within minutes for emergencies. Many also offer 24/7 monitoring and patrol services to ensure continuous coverage. 


Armed guards in NY are not police officers, but they can detain individuals if they witness a crime on the protected premises. Their authority is limited to reasonable restraint until law enforcement arrives. 


Costs depend on the level of risk, number of guards, and hours of service. On average, NYC armed guard rates range from $40–$75 per hour per guard, with specialized executive protection often higher. 


Ask about licensing, insurance, firearms training, experience in your industry, and emergency response procedures.
