Getting Started On GuardsZone

A user account on GuardsZone allows consumers to take advantage of features beyond searching for security guard businesses, including posting reviews, sending messages to business owners, and saving their favorite companies. Sign Up here with GuardsZone

User accounts are non-commercial and should not be associated with a security guard business, nor should business owners create a personal account to promote their business or post reviews on other business profiles.

If you are a business owner and would like to use GuardsZone for commercial purposes, you can find more information here (hyperlink to “What is a business account page in Support Center)

The Support Center provides answers to our most commonly asked questions on GuardsZone.

You can use the search bar at the top of the screen to type in keywords and find answers relevant to your search. Since the search feature on the Support Center is based on keywords, you’ll want to keep the search between 1-2 words and make sure that there aren’t any spelling errors. For example: ‘change password’ ‘reviews’ ‘business login’ ‘privacy’

You can also use the navigation tabs on the left side of the Support Center to find answers to questions that are sorted by topic.
