Our Armed Officers: Training & Licensing
Every armed officer deployed by Group Ten Security Services holds a current NPS firearms licence, has completed our in-house armed response training programme, is trained in de-escalation and use-of-force law, undergoes annual requalification on the range, and is backed by a clean background check and vetting process. We do not deploy unlicensed armed personnel — ever.
Armed Response vs Standard Guards
Armed security is appropriate where the risk of violent attack, robbery, or armed intrusion is elevated. For environments like banks, diplomatic compounds, and cash-in-transit, armed officers provide a decisive deterrent and a credible response capability. For lower-risk environments, our standard security guard services provide professional, cost-effective protection. We will advise you honestly on which is appropriate for your property.
Combined Armed & Technology Security
Armed guards are most effective as part of a layered security system. Group Ten Security Services combines armed deployment with CCTV surveillance, alarm response, electric fencing, and VIP protection to create comprehensive security solutions for high-risk environments.
