Urgent coverage

Need security right now?

When something breaks — an alarm system, a threat, a fire watch order, a no-show vendor — Tectus routes your request to licensed security companies that can respond fast.

How it works

Urgent requests get urgent handling

Submit your request with the "Urgent" timing flag, or call 1-833-2TECTUS to reach dispatch directly. Your requirements go to licensed, insured companies serving your area, and a coordinator confirms who can deploy and when — before anything is billed.

Every deployment is confirmed prior to arrival, with pricing agreed upfront even on short timelines.

Common emergencies

What people call us for

Fire watch ordered after an alarm or sprinkler impairment. Overnight coverage after a break-in or vandalism. A security vendor that canceled the day of an event. Sudden workforce events that need a professional presence. Storm or outage response when alarm systems are down.

FAQ

Emergency coverage questions

Often, yes. Same-day deployment depends on your location and vendor availability — call 1-833-2TECTUS and a coordinator will confirm the fastest available option immediately.

Overnight urgent coverage — after a break-in, for an impaired alarm system, or for an emergency fire watch — is one of the most common urgent requests. Submit it as Urgent or call dispatch.

Urgent timelines can carry premium rates depending on the market and hour, but pricing is always confirmed with you before deployment — never after.

Minimums vary by service and vendor and are disclosed upfront when your request is confirmed.
