Service Overview
Mobile Patrol Security Services for Properties Across BC
Mobile patrol security means a licensed guard visits a property on a schedule rather than staying on site full time. Trans World Security Services Ltd. provides mobile patrol security across BC under Security Business Licence B4204, issued by the Security Programs Division in the Security Guard Service category. We have operated from Burnaby since 2003.
Mobile patrol services suit larger properties, vacant sites and locations that do not need a guard stationed in one place at all times. A security patrol can cover several buildings or zones in one visit, and patrol routes and check points can be arranged around the areas that matter most to your operation. Mobile patrol security solutions are one of the categories we deliver in-house, and security patrol services can be combined with concierge or fire watch coverage on the same property.

Patrol Security Questions
Find answers to common questions about mobile patrol security, coverage, scheduling and pricing.
Patrol security involves a licensed guard conducting scheduled or assigned checks around a property to observe activity, inspect priority areas and note security concerns, rather than remaining stationed in one place.
Patrol frequency is arranged with you. Mobile patrol security services can be scheduled several times per shift, nightly, weekly or on a pattern that suits your operating hours and risk profile.
Perimeters, entrances, service doors, gates, parking lots, parkades, loading areas and any other locations you identify. The patrol route is agreed before coverage begins.
Yes. Overnight patrol security is available during evenings, overnight periods, weekends and holidays, as a one-off visit or an ongoing schedule.
Patrol security rates in BC depend on the patrol frequency, the hours covered, the size and number of sites, and how much notice you give. Overnight and short-notice coverage costs more than scheduled daytime patrols. We confirm the rate before any contract is signed — call 778 855 3065 to discuss your property.
Mobile patrol is generally arranged where a property does not need a guard present at all times, so total hours billed are lower than continuous on-site coverage. Cost depends on patrol frequency and the number of sites.
