Rooted in Ojai

We know Ojai block by block

Ojai sits at the head of its namesake valley, and our officers run the compact downtown grid from the Spanish-revival storefronts along East Ojai Avenue to the gallery and restaurant frontage in the village core. We cover boutique retail under the downtown portico and the mixed-use blocks where visitors park before walking the village. Knowing which corners empty out after the last dinner seating and which lots stay full through festival weekends is what lets us shape coverage to your property instead of a generic patrol.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions Ojai property owners ask us most.

How much does a security guard cost in Ojai?

We do not quote a flat rate because Ojai jobs vary so much, from a single downtown storefront to a hillside estate off Foothill Road. There are no setup or onboarding fees. We price each one to the actual coverage you need. Call us at (805) 515-3834 for a quote on your property.

Which parts of Ojai do you patrol?

We work the whole valley, the downtown village along Ojai Avenue, Meiners Oaks and Mira Monte to the west, the Arbolada, the East End, and out toward Upper Ojai. If you have a property anywhere in or around the city limits, we can build a route to it. We are based in Oxnard and cover all of Ventura County.

Can you provide security for an event in Ojai?

Yes. Ojai runs on its festival and outdoor-event calendar, and we staff private events, gallery openings, weddings, and gatherings at downtown and hillside venues. Tell us the date, the headcount, and the layout, and we will put together a coverage plan. The more notice you give us, the better we can schedule the right officers.

Do you offer armed guards in Ojai?

We provide both armed and unarmed officers depending on what the site calls for. Most retail and residential work in Ojai is handled fine by unarmed patrol, but if your situation warrants an armed presence we can arrange properly licensed officers. We will walk the property with you and give you an honest read on what fits.
