Rooted in Bell Gardens
We know Bell Gardens block by block
Bell Gardens packs about 39,500 residents into roughly two and a half square miles of southeastern Los Angeles County, where the 710 Freeway runs the western edge along the Los Angeles River and Florence, Eastern, Garfield, and Gage avenues carry the traffic. As a security company in Bell Gardens, our officers work these streets daily, and the route we run for a Florence Avenue storefront looks nothing like the one we run for a warehouse near the 710, because we time each to the real risks on the ground.

Local Coverage
Bell Gardens Landmarks & Districts We Patrol Around
Familiar local knowledge is what separates a Los Angeles County security company from a national one. Our supervisors and patrol officers know these locations by name.
The Bicycle Hotel and Casino
A major card casino and hotel, it is one of the largest card rooms in California and the city's single largest employer. We keep a posted officer at high-traffic points and run marked-vehicle patrols across its lot through the overnight hours.
Bell Gardens Marketplace
The city's main retail center sits at the corner of Florence and Eastern avenues, anchored by grocery and big-box stores including Food 4 Less, El Super, Ross, and Marshalls. We provide lot coverage and foot patrol across the storefronts, keeping the parking areas and entrances watched during busy shopping hours.
John Anson Ford Park
The city's largest public park is home to a new John Anson Ford Park Regional Aquatics Center with an Olympic-size 50-meter competition pool that opened in October 2025. Our officers handle after-hours rounds of the grounds and parking, checking that the aquatics center and play areas are secure once programs wrap.
Casa de Rancho San Antonio (Henry Gage Mansion)
Begun in 1795, it is recognized as the oldest remaining house in Los Angeles County and is California Historical Landmark No. 984. We cover the perimeter of the property and grounds, watching for trespass or vandalism at a site that carries real historical value.
Bell Gardens City Hall
The seat of Bell Gardens municipal government, this building houses city offices and the City Council chambers. Our officers patrol the civic block and provide access control coverage during council meetings and after-hours, keeping the parking and entrances monitored.
Bell Gardens High School
A public high school in the Montebello Unified School District, it serves roughly 2,050 students in grades 9 through 12. We run overnight checks of the campus, lots, and athletic fields, watching for trespass and vandalism when school is out of session.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the questions Bell Gardens property owners ask us most.
How much does a security guard cost in Bell Gardens?
Cost depends on the type of service, how many hours of coverage you need, and the size of your property, so we do not quote a flat figure online. We charge no setup fees. The best way to get an accurate number is a free consultation and custom quote. Call us at (805) 515-3834 and we will build a plan around your site.
Do you patrol residential streets and HOA communities in Bell Gardens?
Yes. Bell Gardens blends dense residential blocks with its commercial corridors, and we run marked-vehicle and foot patrol for HOA and residential clients across the city. Officers make timed passes, check gates and common areas, and document anything out of place. We tailor the route and timing to your neighborhood, whether it is a gated block or an open street grid.
Do you cover retail centers and warehouses near the 710 in Bell Gardens?
Yes. We provide commercial and retail security for storefronts and shopping centers like the Florence and Eastern corridor, plus industrial and warehouse coverage for the light-industry pockets near the 710 Freeway. That includes posted officers, lot and perimeter patrol, gate and access control, and after-hours checks. We build the coverage around your hours, your loading areas, and the specific risks at each site.
Do you offer both armed and unarmed guards in Bell Gardens?
Yes. Americal Patrol is licensed in California as PPO-9557 and provides both armed and unarmed uniformed officers, along with marked-vehicle patrol, standing posts, and foot patrol. Which one fits depends on your property, your risk level, and whether you want a visible deterrent or a hands-on posted presence. We will walk your site and recommend the right mix during a free consultation.
