Not every security environment demands an armed response — but every environment demands a professional one. Across Kenya’s offices, schools, hospitals, retail centres, and residential estates, unarmed security guards form the backbone of day-to-day security operations. They are the first face visitors see, the first responders to access violations, and the constant human presence that deters low-level criminal activity and maintains order.
Groupten Security Services deploys highly trained, uniformed unarmed security officers across Nairobi, Kiambu, Machakos, and the wider Kenya region. Every guard is carefully vetted, professionally trained, and supported by a robust supervisory structure that ensures consistent, dependable performance on every shift.
What Are Unarmed Guard Services?
Unarmed guard services involve the deployment of security officers who rely on training, communication, observation, and de-escalation skills — rather than firearms — to protect people and property. Unarmed guards are particularly effective in environments where a welcoming, customer-friendly security presence is as important as physical deterrence.
Core Unarmed Guard Services
Access Control & Gatehouse Management
Groupten’s unarmed guards manage entry and exit points at office blocks, commercial buildings, schools, and residential estates. They verify visitor credentials, manage sign-in registers, and ensure that only authorised persons access the premises at all times.
Concierge & Reception Security
In corporate lobbies and hospitality environments, Groupten provides professional concierge security officers who combine front-of-house presentation with sharp security awareness — creating a safe, welcoming atmosphere for staff and visitors alike.
Perimeter & Boundary Monitoring
Unarmed guards are stationed at perimeter walls, fencing lines, and boundary checkpoints to monitor for unauthorised entry attempts, vandalism, and suspicious activity, particularly during non-business hours.
Car Park & Traffic Management
Groupten deploys unarmed guards to manage vehicle flow, enforce parking regulations, and prevent vehicle theft in car parks and loading bays associated with shopping centres, hospitals, office complexes, and event venues.
Loss Prevention & Retail Security
Trained retail security officers from Groupten monitor store floors, manage fitting rooms, observe customer behaviour, and liaise with store management to minimise shoplifting and internal theft without creating a hostile shopping environment.
School & Institution Security
Groupten provides unarmed guards specifically trained for educational and institutional environments. These officers manage pupil and visitor access, monitor school perimeters, and maintain a safe, orderly environment throughout the school day.
Construction Site Security
Building sites in Nairobi, Kiambu, and Machakos are frequent targets for material theft and vandalism. Groupten’s unarmed site security officers protect tools, materials, and equipment, while managing contractor and visitor access throughout the construction lifecycle.
