Harmon Security Group: Comprehensive Security Services in Tulsa & OKC
Choosing a private security agency is a major business decision. This is true when you protect valuable commercial real estate, industrial sites, and corporate spaces. We provide scalable guard services and electronic security integrations across Oklahoma. We build these solutions for non-residential commercial sites.
Commercial On-Site Armed & Unarmed Guard Solutions
Our team trains under Oklahoma Council on Law Enforcement Education and Training (CLEET) standards. They guard corporate office towers and manage entry points at sensitive healthcare sites. They also aid in security risk patient transfers. Officers follow the five core standards of guard operations. These are the 5 C's of security guards: Care, Courtesy, Commitment, Courage, and Control. Every officer completes drug tests and background checks before deployment.
Mobile Patrol, Perimeter Checks, & Rapid Incident Response
Some large commercial sites need deterrence without full-time guards. Mobile patrols offer flexible coverage for these properties. Our fleet makes 2 to 4 random, GPS-tracked perimeter visits during each 8-hour shift. We use real-time guard tour tracking software. Property managers get time-stamped digital proof of inspection. They also get instant alerts for unlocked doors or suspicious activity.
Remote Video Surveillance & Access Control System Integration
Combining guards with smart hardware maximizes your ROI. We pair off-site camera monitoring with automated access control systems. Cameras, surveillance, and access control qualify for federal IRS Section 179 capital expense tax deductions. Commercial property owners can write off equipment costs in the year they buy them. This lowers long-term guard labor costs.

Call (918) 280-9637Primary Cost Drivers: Shift Duration, Site Risk Level, & Specialized Duties
Guard pricing depends on contract scope. Main cost drivers include: * Certification Tiers: Phase 4 armed guards cost more than basic Phase 2 unarmed guards. * Shift Timing & Duration: Night, holiday, and short-notice shifts cost more. * Liability Insurance Caps: We keep $1M/$2M General Liability insurance and Workers' Compensation. This protects property owners from site losses.
How to Estimate Security Guard Coverage Needs for Commercial Facilities
To find the right guard coverage, use these basic industry formulas: * Standard Commercial Offices: 1 security officer per 50,000 – 100,000 sq. ft. * Active Construction or Industrial Sites: 1 security officer per 25,000 – 50,000 sq. ft.
Using these rules prevents over-staffing and keeps large sites safe.
Oklahoma CLEET Licensing & Compliance Standards
A legal commercial guard program must follow state laws.
CLEET Phase 2 vs. Phase 4 Certification Explained
Under Oklahoma Title 59, Chapter 42 (Security Guard and Private Investigator Act), guards must complete required training hours: * Phase 2 (Unarmed): Focuses on report writing, legal liability, first aid, conflict control, and fire safety. * Phase 4 (Armed): Requires Phase 2 training plus handgun safety, marksmanship, and legal rules on lethal force.
Background Screening, Insurance Limits, & Risk Management Protocol
We use strict hiring processes. Each applicant passes state and federal criminal checks, drug tests, and mental health tests for armed posts. Our company holds a BBB A+ Rating (Accredited) and strong insurance coverage. This helps commercial property owners lower risk.
Tailored Security Solutions by Industry
Different industries need distinct physical security setups and procedures.
High-Rise Office Buildings & Corporate Campuses
Corporate environments need access control security systems, visitor badges, and executive protection. Officers guard entry points and keep tenants safe without slowing daily work.
Construction Sites, Industrial Facilities, & Warehouses
Job sites face theft, property damage, and trespass risks. Using construction site physical security stops tool theft, protects machinery, and logs all site visitors.
Public Institutions, Financial Organizations, & Special Events
Busy venues need crowd control, clear evacuation plans, and visible armed guards to protect cash and people.
