At Gates Security, we know you need to protect your open space property from potential trespassers, including those who may establish homeless encampments or illegal marijuana grows. That’s why we have experience patrolling tens of thousands of acres of land just like yours, and our mission is to help you prevent these types of issues. Our success in deterring and preventing trespassers from entering property with limited or no access control is achieved through a range of cutting-edge surveillance techniques. We use 4×4, ATV, drone, and foot patrols to ensure optimal security and minimize risk. And with our dynamic approach to trespassing issues, we can help you prevent a problem before it becomes widespread and costly.

Open space properties are vulnerable to numerous trespass issues, with fire being one of the most devastating threats. Gates Security’s Rangers are well-versed in Wildland Fire Behavior and have extensive experience responding to countless wildfires, structure fires, and trash fires. By maintaining a high-visibility patrol, we have effectively reduced the incidence of fires – both accidental and intentional – by preventing unauthorized individuals from accessing your property.
The rise of vagrancy has also posed significant challenges for landowners, with the cost and time required to remove and clean homeless encampments being considerable. At Gates Security, we have developed a highly successful method for both removing established encampments and preventing new ones. This approach has been honed through our extensive work with city, county, and law enforcement agencies, and our staff are highly skilled in dealing with transient populations in open space environments. We have even shared our expertise by teaching classes to Park Ranger Associations on how to effectively mitigate such issues.
