Access Points Control in D.C.
The private security team at SMART Security Pros has the necessary skills to control access points to buildings, facilities, and events, including with modern identity verification technologies, x-ray screening systems, handheld scanners, and magnetometers.
- With our access control security service, you can:
- Thwart crime by verifying visitor identities
- Prevent the entry of illicit deliveries
- Confirm who awaits a package or visitor
- Seize items exiting without authorization
SMART Security Pros guards can assess situations, detect mischief, and quickly make judicious decisions. Our off-duty police officer staff can also arrest suspected criminals and call for backup from local law enforcement offices for rapid responses to subpar situations.
SMART Security Patrol Services
Armed security guard companies play a principal role in protecting commercial properties, residential gated communities, constructions, and other sites prone to criminal hazards. We provide full-time monitoring and security patrols as well as emergency response services tailored to your needs.
If an intruder or alien vehicle enters a secured area, our security agents respond immediately to minimize the risk of theft or vandalism. The demeanor nurtured through military or police training helps our police guards to react to situations appropriately and professionally.
Data Center Security Services
If you do business in the corporate world, you understand the importance of data — and the danger of losing it. Bad actors who illegally access your data can exploit it for fraud or to ruin your business. Keep these facts in mind:
- There are many automated data security technologies, but data centers face physical threats from intruders.
- Criminals can break in to steal data storage devices or sabotage IT infrastructure.
- Corporations in all industries trust data centers with their sensitive data, including financial records and customer data.
- Data centers have a fiduciary responsibility to safeguard their clients' data assets.
Our armed and unarmed police security professionals are fit to guard sensitive facilities like data centers. SMART Security Pros can deploy armed security agents to safeguard your organization both on-site and remotely via robust video surveillance and monitoring systems.
SMART Public Institutions Security
Most public facilities in Washington, D.C. and the surrounding areas are open to everyone. They are busy admitting and releasing people simultaneously, which means the facilities can be vulnerable to criminal mischief.
Our security guards are qualified to provide security in building complexes where access control isn’t entirely foolproof. We keep our eyes open to arrest criminal elements before they become a nuisance. We provide professional security services to:
- Healthcare facilities
- Schools and colleges
- Religious buildings
- Government offices
- Shopping malls
- Amusement parks
- Condominiums
- Hotels
The SMART Security Pros team is the D.C. armed security company that completes the job with zero disruption of your organization’s operations.
Remote Video Surveillance Services
At SMART Security Pros, we have a modern video security surveillance system under a trained security professional’s full-time watch.

- Shopping centers
- Churches and temples
- Festivals & special events
- Car dealerships

The Mobile Video Guard system consists of high-powered HD cameras installed on 30-foot poles on a compact trailer.
