Private patrol
Stormhammer Security is a California BSIS Private Patrol Operator (PPO #121830) running marked private security patrol units across the Sacramento metro. A private patrol officer is a licensed, insured guard who works under a written post order — not an off-duty rover. Mobile private patrol from $15/night includes GPS-stamped checkpoints, photo-verified shift reports, and direct radio to local law enforcement dispatch.

A courtesy patrol is a uniformed, non-confrontational visible presence requested by HOA boards and apartment property managers to walk pools, parking decks, mail rooms, and amenity spaces during quiet hours. Our courtesy patrol officers issue lawful trespass warnings, document policy violations with photos, and escalate to Sacramento PD or the Sheriff only when conditions warrant — keeping resident incident reports clean and tenant retention high.

Our night patrol — sometimes called a night watch or watchman service — runs randomized vehicle tours between dusk and dawn. Marked black Ford Explorers with amber light bars are the single most visible deterrent in the Sacramento private security market. Each tour hits perimeter checkpoints (NFC or geofence), documents conditions, and produces a sunrise PDF report. Night protection without the cost of a stationary guard.

A true 24/7 security guard patrol is more than overnight tours — it is dispatch coverage answered live around the clock, with 24-hour security monitoring of camera feeds, alarm panels, and access control as one integrated service. Stormhammer's 24/7 patrol dispatch never routes to voicemail. Call (530) 902-9390 at 3 a.m. and a human picks up — that is the single most-cited reason Sacramento property managers switch to us from larger national firms.

24-hour patrol dispatch →After-hours
After-hours security covers the highest-risk window for retail and commercial properties: the 30 minutes around closing and the 30 minutes around opening. Our night lock-up service walks the building, clears restrooms and back-of-house, sets the alarm, and confirms exterior doors. The matching night unlock service is on site before staff arrive — clearing the building before the first employee swipes in. After-hours patrol can be added as a standalone or bundled with nightly tours.

Lock-up & unlock service →Homeless & encampment response
Homeless removal is the most-requested call we get from Sacramento storefronts and property managers. We do it correctly: a uniformed officer issues a CPC §602 trespass warning, documents the contact on body-worn camera, offers contact info for the Sacramento Homeless Outreach team, and only escalates to SPD or the Sheriff if the subject refuses to leave after lawful warning. The result is a clear storefront, a defensible paper trail, and zero civil-rights exposure for the property.

Storefront sweep service →Asset protection
Property monitoring and building watch are the bread and butter of mobile patrol: a marked unit checks vacant buildings, construction trailers, model homes, leasing offices, and end-of-lease storefronts on randomized tours. Each visit timestamps perimeter doors, windows, gates, and roof access. If anything is compromised between tours, the next officer on the route is the first one to know — not the property manager checking on Monday morning.

Patrol is also an asset-value play. Visible, professional private security drives tenant retention (residents renew when they feel safe), supports property beautification by flagging graffiti, broken lighting, and dumped furniture before it compounds, and is one of the most effective forms of blight prevention in commercial corridors. We surface every condition in the morning report so property managers can act before a small problem becomes a code-enforcement issue.
