How To Secure Your Condo Building Against Unauthorized Access and Package Theft

Table of contents

Urban condo buildings are frequently targeted for tailgating, unauthorized access, and package theft especially with the rise in online deliveries. Relying solely on buzz-in systems or CCTV isn’t enough. You need trained guards stationed at entrances to verify IDs, manage visitor logs, and monitor deliveries. They stop unauthorized individuals from entering through tailgating and handle resident complaints or disturbances in real time. With a constant presence in the lobby or patrols on upper floors, they create a secure, monitored environment that technology alone can’t provide.

Protect Strata Complexes with Active On-Site Monitoring

Strata properties often include shared amenities like gyms, pools, and parking garages. These spaces increase exposure to liability and crime. As a property manager, you must face challenges enforcing common area rules, especially during evening hours. G Force Security provides uniformed guards who conduct scheduled patrols, respond to complaints, and monitor high-risk zones such as underground parking. Our presence reduces vandalism, noise issues, and unauthorized facility use. Guards also ensure compliance with building policies, creating a structured and safe living experience for all residents.

Deter Trespassers and Vehicle Crime in Townhouse Communities

Townhouse developments often lack physical boundaries or 24/7 access control, making them targets for vehicle theft, trespassing, and unauthorized solicitors. Our mobile patrol units circulate throughout the property at randomized intervals, checking for loiterers, break-in attempts, and suspicious activity. Guards engage with unknown individuals, respond to resident calls, and ensure parking regulations are followed. With high-visibility vehicles and detailed patrol reporting, we actively reduce crime and raise the standard of security in these semi-open communities.

Control Gate Access and Prevent Tailgating in Gated Communities

While gates may create a perception of safety, without proper monitoring, they can be easily bypassed. Visitors may gain entry through tailgating, code sharing, or lax enforcement. We provide 24/7 gatehouse security staffed by trained personnel who verify all visitors, contractors, and deliveries. Guards monitor camera feeds, check credentials, and deny access to unauthorized individuals. In case of incidents, they are equipped to respond immediately, record events, and alert emergency services. This ensures that only verified individuals can enter, and residents enjoy a secured perimeter at all times.

Safeguard Private Estates with Customized Security Protocols

Private estates require personalized, discreet protection that adapts to the unique layout and lifestyle of the residents. From long driveways to multiple entry points, standard surveillance systems fall short in coverage and deterrence. G Force Security offers tailored estate security services. We assign dedicated guards trained in perimeter patrols, gate monitoring, surveillance oversight, and emergency response. For clients with high-value assets, we also provide close protection and response-ready teams familiar with estate operations. Whether you need a visible deterrent or low-profile security presence, we align our services to your exact requirements.

Restore Safety in Social Housing with Consistent Guard Presence

Social housing developments face persistent security challenges, including drug activity, vandalism, and tenant disputes. Property staff and residents often lack the means to de-escalate these situations safely. Our guards bring structure and authority into these spaces by performing routine patrols, engaging with residents respectfully, and intervening in potential threats before they escalate. We support housing authorities by documenting recurring issues, coordinating with police when needed, and maintaining a daily incident log to track and address emerging patterns.
