Hotels

Hotel security guards in Sacramento

Hotels are open all night, and most problems happen after the day staff go home. GPI officers give your lobby a calm, professional presence, patrol the floors and parking, and back up your front desk team, without making guests feel watched.

  • Lobby and front desk presence. An officer near the entrance watches who comes in, helps desk staff with difficult visitors and controls after hours door access.
  • Night patrol of floors and parking. Hallways, stairwells, the pool, back of house doors and the lot or garage, looking for break ins, loitering and propped doors.
  • Guest disturbances. Noise complaints, intoxicated guests and hallway arguments are handled quickly and politely with the front desk, and every one is written up.
  • Trespass and event nights. People who are not guests are asked to leave under your policy, and we add officers for weddings, conferences and busy weekends.

Your general manager receives a daily activity report for every shift and an incident report with photos for anything that happens. Smaller properties can use mobile patrol visits or camera monitoring instead of a full time officer, and armed officers are available when a property needs a stronger deterrent.

Apartments and HOAs

Apartment and HOA security in Sacramento

GPI protects apartment communities, gated neighborhoods and HOAs across the Sacramento area with a standing officer at the gate or in the common areas, nightly patrol visits, or both. Your property manager gets a written record of every shift and visit.

  • Gated communities. Officers check that gates close and lock, watch for cars following residents in, and can staff the gate for visitor checks.
  • Common area checks. Pool, clubhouse, laundry, mailroom, carports and back fences, with checkpoint scans so you can see when each spot was checked.
  • Parking enforcement. Fire lanes, accessible and reserved stalls and abandoned vehicles are documented with photos and handled under your written rules.
  • Trespassers and noise complaints. Trespassers are asked to leave, noise complaints get a visit and a written contact, and police are called when the law requires it.

Many communities start with nightly mobile patrol visits and add a standing officer for problem hours. Broken lights, gates and fences go in the report with a photo so maintenance can fix them.

Questions

Hotel, apartment and HOA questions

Should my hotel use armed or unarmed security?

Most hotels use unarmed officers, who fit a guest facing setting and are trained in de-escalation. Armed officers make sense for properties with a history of serious incidents. We can talk through your incident history and recommend one or the other.

Can your officers remove a guest or a trespasser?

Officers follow your hotel’s written policy. Ending a registered guest’s stay is a management decision; our officer supports the manager on duty, keeps things calm and documents what happens. People who are not guests are asked to leave, and when someone refuses or there is a threat, we call the police.

Can you tow cars that break our community’s parking rules?

We enforce the parking rules your community has adopted. Officers document violations with photos and coordinate with the towing company you choose. A vehicle is only towed when your written rules, the posted signs and the authorization California law requires are all in place.

Can you remove squatters from a vacant unit?

We document what we find, notify your property manager right away and stay on scene when needed. When the law requires it, the police make the decision and do the removal. Our officers do not change locks or remove anyone’s belongings on their own.

Who receives the reports for an apartment community or HOA?

Your property manager, and the HOA board if you want. Reports list each shift or patrol visit, plus separate incident reports with photos for anything that needs follow up.
