Frequently Asked Questions

How many security guards do I need for my event?
The number depends on your event size, type, and venue layout. As a general guide, 1 guard per 100 attendees is a starting point for low-risk events, rising to 1 per 50 for licensed venues or higher-risk events. We'll advise the right ratio after reviewing your event details.
Do your guards hold crowd management endorsements?
Yes. All our event security officers hold the required crowd management endorsements under Victoria's Private Security Act 2004. They are trained in crowd behaviour, de-escalation, and emergency procedures.
Can you provide security for a private function or house party?
Yes. We provide security for events of all sizes — from private parties of 30 people to large public events with thousands of attendees. Small functions typically require a minimum of 2 officers.
Do you prepare a security management plan?
Yes. For larger events we prepare a full security management plan covering risk assessment, guard positioning, access control procedures, communications, emergency protocols, and debrief reporting. This is included in our event security packages.
