On-demand security

Security guards on demand — without the phone tag

Tell us where, when, and what you need. Tectus matches your request with licensed, vetted security companies and confirms coverage — often the same day.

Why on-demand

Book security like you book a ride

Traditional security sourcing means calling vendors one by one, waiting days for quotes, and hoping availability lines up. On-demand security replaces that with a single structured request: service type, location, timing, and requirements — matched against a network of licensed, insured security companies.

You see confirmed pricing before deployment, and every shift is tracked from assignment to completion in one dashboard.

When to use it

Built for real-world timing

Short-notice event coverage. A retail rush weekend. A construction site that needs weekend patrols. A fire watch ordered by the marshal this afternoon. On-demand coverage exists for exactly these moments — scheduled requests are supported alongside urgent ones, with same-day options where vendor availability allows.

FAQ

Timing depends on your location and vendor availability. Urgent and same-day requests are supported — submit a request or call 1-833-2TECTUS and a coordinator will confirm the fastest available option.

No. You can book a single shift, a weekend, or ongoing coverage. Long-term programs are supported, but short-term needs never require one.
