Busy boulevard, busy buildings

Sherman Oaks sits where the 405 meets the 101, and it shows. Ventura Boulevard is one long run of restaurants, shops, gyms and medical offices, the Sherman Oaks Galleria anchors the corner at Sepulveda, and Westfield Fashion Square sits a few blocks north on Riverside Drive. North of the boulevard are dense blocks of apartments and condos; south of it, hillside homes climb toward Mulholland.

That mix means most Sherman Oaks security work is about people and parking: lobbies, garages, storefronts and the doors of residential buildings. LDG provides licensed security guards for property managers, businesses, HOAs and homeowners, with post orders written for each site.

Common Sherman Oaks posts

Office and medical buildings. Lobby check-in, after-hours lockup and rounds of parking structures.
Apartment and condo communities. Front-desk coverage, garage and package-room checks, and overnight rounds.
Retail and restaurants. Visible coverage on Ventura Boulevard during evenings, weekends and the holiday season.
Hillside homes. Gate posts and travel coverage south of the boulevard.

Garages are where problems start

In a neighborhood with this much structured parking, many incidents begin in the garage: tailgating through a gate, car break-ins, people sleeping in stairwells. Regular, logged garage rounds are one of the most useful things a guard does here, and the reports show a manager where a light, a lock or a camera would help.

Unarmed, armed or off-duty?

Most posts here suit unarmed security guards in Sherman Oaks. For higher-risk sites, see armed security guards in Sherman Oaks. Off-Duty Police Officers in Sherman Oaks are also available.

Scheduling and quotes

Sherman Oaks schedules range from evening retail coverage to overnight garage rounds and full-time lobby posts. Pricing depends on the hours, the number of officers and the length of the assignment. Longer service agreements usually cost less per hour, and requests with less than 7 days’ notice carry an upcharge. Our published hourly ranges are on the rates page, and every quote is confirmed before service. Request a consultation, or call or text (442) 288-6642.
