Each of our vehicles also has a level II first aid kit on board. All vehicles are also GPS tracked.
Radio Communication
All Griffin Security Professionals are issued and carry portable radios on their person at all times. Communication is key to keeping our Security Professional safe and your site secure. Radio Checks are conducted with each Security Professional every 30 minutes. This also allows our Security Professionals to be confident in their actions knowing that backup and support is only a radio call away.
FLIR – Forward-Looking Infra-Red Camera
Griffin Security has a FLIR that is vehicle-mounted. This unit can be deployed to any site where darkness provides cover for the undesirables to commit their crimes. This unit virtually allows us to see in the dark, pinpoint the location of these unwanted people on a site allowing us to box them in for the capture. We can also tape the entire event in both Infra-Red or colour for future court use.
