Search for security companies in South Florida and you get two kinds of results: national brands that treat a condo in Aventura and a warehouse in Pompano Beach as line items in a regional office, and small one-county operators who cannot follow a client across the county line. FSO Guard is a licensed Florida Class B security agency (B3100530) and Class A investigative agency (A 1000095) headquartered at 1716 N Dixie Hwy in Hollywood, FL, almost exactly halfway between downtown Miami and West Palm Beach. That address is not a coincidence. It lets us staff Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties with our own officers every day and reach any site in the region within an hour in normal traffic.

Where we work in South Florida
Miami-Dade County
Our largest book of business: condo towers and offices in Downtown Miami and Brickell, hotels and nightlife in Miami Beach, galleries and events in Wynwood, logistics and free-trade-zone warehouses in Doral and Hialeah, residential communities in Kendall, Coral Gables and Homestead, and island estates in Key Biscayne, Sunny Isles Beach and Aventura.
Broward County
Home territory. From our office in Hollywood we cover Fort Lauderdale (the marine industry, Las Olas, the airport and cruise port corridor), Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Weston, Davie and Cooper City, plus Hallandale Beach, Dania Beach, Plantation, Sunrise, Tamarac, Coral Springs, Pompano Beach and Deerfield Beach. Broward is where most of our supervisors live, which is why response there is fastest of all.
Palm Beach County
Boca Raton corporate campuses and country clubs, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach downtowns and communities, and West Palm Beach and the island of Palm Beach, where the work is estates, galas, financial firms and seasonal residents. Wellington during the equestrian season, Jupiter and Palm Beach Gardens for gated communities and medical campuses.
Beyond the three counties
The Upper Keys, Port St. Lucie and the Treasure Coast are served from Broward and Palm Beach by arrangement. For the rest of the state, see security company serving all of Florida, with dedicated teams in Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville and Fort Myers and Naples.
Why clients choose one security company for South Florida
- Central headquarters, real coverage. Hollywood, FL is 25 minutes from Miami and 45 from West Palm Beach. Supervisors physically visit posts in all three counties every week instead of managing a distant site by phone.
- One contract for a tri-county portfolio. Property managers, retailers, medical groups and developers with sites in several cities get one post-order standard, one reporting portal and one invoice through our contract security services, and officers can be shifted between sites during vacancies and storms.
- Hurricane season is part of the plan. Pre-storm staffing decisions, post-storm priorities and fire watch for buildings with disabled systems are written into annual contracts, not sold as an emergency add-on.
- Officers who stay. Class D and Class G licensed officers, screened, trained and paid above the local market so the same faces stay on your gate. Read how to choose a security company for the questions that expose the difference between agencies.
- Security and investigations under one license pair. When an incident on a South Florida property needs an investigation, theft by an employee, fraud by a vendor or a threat against a board member, the same agency handles it with a report that holds up in court.
- Three languages. English, Spanish and Russian speaking officers, investigators and managers for a region where clients and residents come from everywhere.
How to get started
Tell us where the property, event or principal is, what hours you need covered and what worries you. A supervisor calls back the same business day, visits the site if it is a recurring post and sends a written proposal with a fixed figure, whether it is one gate in Weston or twenty sites across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. Call 888.881.8099, use the live chat or the form on this page. Learn more about FSO Guard.
