Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you call.
Are your officers licensed?+
Yes. All KARAS officers are California guard carded, licensed, bonded and insured, and complete a minimum 40 hour training course before they are assigned to a post.
How fast can you start?+
After a site walkthrough we can usually plan coverage quickly. Urgent needs such as fire watch are handled first.
Can I get a price without a visit?+
Call us for a first estimate. A walkthrough gives the most accurate price.
Do you cover short term jobs?+
Yes. We staff one day events as well as long term contracts.
What areas do you serve?+
We are based in Los Angeles and serve Southern California. Tell us your city and we will confirm coverage.
How do I request a quote?+
Call us at 310-478-8424 and speak with a KARAS team member, not a machine.
Are you hiring?+
We select our officers carefully and match each one to the right post, so we do not hire on the spot. See our Careers page for what we look for, or call 310-478-8424 to talk with us.
Can I speak to a person?+
Yes. When you call, you speak with a KARAS employee, never an answering service or a machine.
How often do officers check my property?+
Our officers check your property a minimum of three times during each eight hour shift, and file a Daily Activity Report at the end of the shift.
