Executive Protection
Estate Security Services
Gatehouse staffing, perimeter patrols and plain-clothes residential coverage for private estates and family compounds, staffed 24 hours a day under written post orders.
Estate Security in practice
Estate coverage is built from a written site plan agreed with the estate manager or the family's office: the gate procedures the household actually uses, the patrol routes that cover the fence line and outbuildings, the response steps for alarms and camera alerts, and the guest and vendor lists the officers enforce.
Coverage runs uniformed or in plain clothes, staffed around the clock or on an occupancy schedule, and it coordinates with executive protection, secure transportation and the household's existing staff so the property, the movements and the staff gate are held by one accountable organization.
Gatehouse and access control
Visitor logs, vendor verification against the household's schedule, delivery screening and guest list enforcement at the private drive.
Perimeter and grounds patrols
Fence and wall checks, gate hardware, lighting reviews and documented rounds across driveways, service roads and outbuildings.
Plain-clothes residential coverage
A low-signature presence dressed to the setting, with armed augmentation written into the post orders where the threat picture calls for it.
Staff and vendor discipline
Domestic staff, contractors and couriers checked against the household's own lists, with every arrival and exception logged.
Alarm response and emergency procedures
In-person alarm verification, the escalation path to local police, medical response and the household's specific emergency procedures.
Travel and absence coverage
The residence held on a reduced schedule while the family travels, with seasonal openings, closings and storm preparation at coastal properties.

Questions clients ask before booking
- How much does estate security cost?
- Pricing is quoted per property: the gate post, the patrol coverage, the hours, the supervision and any plain-clothes or armed augmentation all move the number. Long-term assignments are quoted on a schedule so the rate holds across the calendar, and licensing and insurance certificates are issued with the quote. Request a quote with the property details.
- Should estate coverage be armed or unarmed?
- Most residential posts run unarmed and plain-clothes, because the priority is a low-signature presence. Armed coverage is added where the threat picture, the family's preference and state licensing call for it, and the posture is written into the post orders before the first shift.
- Can officers manage household staff, vendors and deliveries?
- Yes. Officers work from the household's own lists: regular staff and vendors are recognized and logged, contractors are verified against the schedule, and deliveries are screened before they reach the house. Every arrival and exception is recorded in the visitor log.
- Can estate security work alongside our existing protection detail?
- Yes. The residence post and the traveling detail run as one plan: shared itinerary, arrival windows and escalation path. Many clients engage executive protection for movements and USPA's estate team for the property, coordinated through one account team.
- Do you cover properties while the family is traveling?
- Yes. Absence coverage holds the property on a reduced schedule, manages mail and vendor activity against the household's instructions, and verifies alarms in person before any other response is triggered. Seasonal residences are opened and closed on a documented walk.
- How quickly can coverage start at a residence?
- Occupied-residence coverage typically starts within days of the site walk. Short-notice assignments, after an incident or a sudden change in the family's exposure, are staffed from the standing roster, often for the next shift, with the written post orders completed the same day.
