What Sets Us Apart

Your family’s safety and your home and business security needs to be simple and secure. Gates Security recruits patrol officers from local police academies and law enforcement agencies; and then provides our new officers an extensive field training program to ensure our high standards of service are provided to each client.

As threat profiles continue to evolve, our integration of technology and manpower to ensure minimal exposure to threats and loss, is a top priority. We monitor these systems at our office and dispatch our own uniformed armed and police academy trained officers in marked patrol cars to deter or stop threats from reaching your home or family 24 hours a day. We bring these assets together to ensure we are “Prepared to Protect.”

Excellence in patrol and response services is possible with academy trained armed patrol officers using cars, bike patrol, canine units, 4×4 trucks, and motorcycles. The company secures two dozen public and private schools, supervises over 2500 acres of public and private park-lands and deploys bike patrol teams for neighborhoods, special events and business districts.

The company’s digital communication equipment is capable of interfacing with public safety agencies in multiple jurisdictions.

Gates Security is an urban ranger agency in appearance and capabilities, prepared to handle many types of threats that threaten the quality of life or safety for families, schools, municipalities, and businesses. In short, the company is, “Prepared to Protect.”

Founder and security expert Scott Wagenseller, established Gates Security in 2000 with a unique vision to integrate reputable electronic security systems with security professionals who understand how to protect people and property while also minimizing exposure of liability for discerning residential and commercial clients.

“It is important to provide our clients with protection professionals that have the latest information, training, and support to stay in front of our clients to prevent and if necessary protect our clients from the constant wave of crimes and quality of life issues that leave people with uneasiness for their safety.”

Scott calls on his broad experience and training in law enforcement, physical security, and technical education to bring together the best team of security professionals to solve problems other security companies can only observe and report, . . . not solve.
