Founded in 1984 as a family owned provider of security services, the
Metro One LPSG brand has been built upon an uncompromising commitment to unsurpassed service. This commitment requires resources that the more price-driven providers in the security industry cannot provide. The rigorous requirements applied to candidate recruitment, screening, training and retention enable us to deploy a quality workforce capable of performing to the highest standards in the industry. We are known for intense supervision and management of our field personnel and producing a service that sustains a professional standard that distinguishes us from other security providers.

As part of our commitment to client satisfaction, our management teams establish a variety of forums for client feedback from the branch level to the executive level. Together with our clients, we develop metrics for measuring the productivity and effectiveness of our service and regularly report results. We tailor our service to fully integrate into the client’s loss prevention/asset protection program and play a key role in obtaining their objectives.

Metro One LPSG is recognized in the industry for consistency in delivering professional security services. This has been achieved by deploying a highly trained and intensively supervised work force, fostering productive working relationships with our clients with an uncompromising adherence to the highest professional and ethical standards.
