THE PROBLEM
The security guard industry has a major challenge: it’s oversaturated with companies that provide little more than the bare minimum. Too many businesses hire security guards who lack training, professionalism, or the skill sets and mindset needed to handle real-world situations effectively. The result? Guards who stand around, looking disengaged, providing only the appearance of safety without delivering true protection.
These sub-standard providers cut corners on recruitment, fail to train their staff beyond basic compliance, and prioritize quick contracts over long-term client safety. Unfortunately, this leads to:
Poor communication and lack of customer service.
Guards who are reactive instead of proactive.
Limited knowledge in de-escalation and conflict resolution.
A lack of situational awareness that puts people and property at risk.
Businesses left feeling unprotected despite paying for “security.”
At Priority Protection Group, we believe this model is unacceptable. Security is not just about presence—it’s about prevention, protection, and peace of mind.
OUR SOLUTION
Priority Protection Group was founded by a former U.S. Secret Service Agent and U.S. Army National Guard Veteran to raise the bar in professional security guard services. We go beyond the status quo by redefining what it means to protect people, property, and assets.
Our approach is simple: combine exceptional soft skills with proven tactical expertise. While many companies stop at hiring someone simply to wear a uniform, we invest in guards who are leaders, problem-solvers, committed to improvement, and ambassadors of safety.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Rigorous Hiring Process
We carefully vet every candidate, selecting only individuals who demonstrate integrity, professionalism, and sound judgment, and who pass a 13-panel drug screen, criminal history background check, and Scenario Response Evaluations (SRE) as part of the interview process.
Advanced Training Program
Our guards are trained not only in safety and tactical response but also in customer service, communication, and de-escalation techniques. We operate our in-house training division (PPG Security Academy) which sets our guards up for success in learning any additional skillsets and obtaining certificates they are interested in earning.
SITUATIONAL AWARENESS
We ensure our personnel are always alert, observant, and capable of identifying potential threats before they escalate. We ensure our guards understand their responsibilities, the impact they personally have on the client, and the big picture of why the client wants our support.
By blending courtesy with strength, we deliver security that is intelligent, intentional, and effective; ultimately providing multiple layers of security to protect their people, property, and processes.
BALANCED APPROACH
At Priority Protection Group, our guards are not just “bodies on site”—they are trained professionals who understand that true security requires vigilance, adaptability, and an unwavering commitment to client safety.
Peace of Mind: Know that your people, property, and assets are protected by true professionals.
Enhanced Reputation: A security presence that is professional, approachable, and reassuring to your staff, customers, and guests.
Cost-Effective: PPG is the superior option for a best value result. We offer sound, high quality security guard services at an economical, but realistic cost. The vast majority of security companies only differentiate themselves with price and remain unable to provide you with the quality you need and deserve. We firmly stand behind our quality and refuse to sacrifice quality for profit – meaning we do not cut corners even when there are budget constraints. PPG are good stewards of your budget available for security guard services.
Trustworthy Partnership: We treat your business as if it were our own, always prioritizing your best interests and supporting your goals. One of our company values reads, “United effort strengthens partnerships”. We believe that all of us are better off when we collaborate, communicate, and support each other.
When you partner with Priority Protection Group, you don’t just get a guard—you gain a comprehensive security solution designed to protect and reassure. We deliver Intelligent, Intentional, and Effective Security Measures tailored to your environment.

Mel
We hired PPG to do security at a private event and they did an AMAZING job. We then later had an unexpected emergency situation, and without any previous notice, they were able to show up within an hour, handle the situation calmly and professionally to resolve the situation. We are extremely grateful for their services and feel that they are exceeding the previous standards of personal private security.

I have had the privilege of knowing Gordon for many years and have been able to work with him in collaboration for materials related to behavioral threat assessment, physical vulnerability assessment, executive protection principles, and more. Gordon’s experience in both the private and public sector is valuable when customizing security packages which have various degrees of protection, safety, privacy, and training. I highly recommend Gordon and Priority Protection Group, LLC when developing your security strategy and training plans.
