About Us

Hedge Security Solutions provides security solutions to for-profit businesses as well as nonprofit organizations in order to enhance overall safety of employees, patrons, volunteers (nonprofits), vendors, and clients.

Security is an ever-evolving industry. Within the current climate of overall stress and uncertainty, acts of violence have increased 96.8 percent since 2017. We anticipate these acts of violence to further increase with the stress of economic hardship (potential recession on the horizon) and/or fear of illness such as COVID-19 that we continue to face on a daily basis. In addition, these acts of violence continue to increase due to the rapid desensitization of violence through TV, video games, and social media. Due to the pressing need for protection in addition to the constant advances in technology. we will continue to offer new services and support to our clients through the newest and best in security protection services.

Emergency Planning

Emergency Planning – the product of this area will be a comprehensive security plan based upon the overall security needs of your organization.

Campus Perimeter Improvements

Campus Perimeter Improvements – campus perimeter improvements
are not something that is normally considered by an organization when thinking about the security of the facility. In fact, changes in landscaping can improve the visibility from your windows to the exterior of your facility, improve the flow in and out of your facility, and/or prevent quick access into the facility.

Safe Rooms

Safe Rooms – we have vendor partners that will design and install a safe room based upon the needs of the organization and the number of people that it needs to protect.
