At Knight Security, event security covers a broad range of security services to be employed, because events is a broad category that includes weddings to political conventions and town halls to high school proms. That’s why we work closely with event organizers to ensure that their particular security requirements are met and exceeded. Site surveys, early, and frequent communication with event planners and venue operators/owners allow us to plan and be thoroughly prepared to provide best-in-class event security. We wrote the book on event security protocols, and, in fact, we don’t just train our own event security guards, we train our competition’s security guards, too! As the premier event security company in New York, we have a responsibility to maintain the highest standards while securing the safety and comfort of your guests whether the event is 30 people or 30,000.
PREMIER EVENT SECURITY SERVICES
We review venue security plans, policies, and procedures as well as interview and liaise with promoters, local law enforcement and emergency responders. We develop a risk profile, including vulnerabilities, safety concerns, transport and communications, and provide recommendations to improve venue security and event security management effectiveness and efficiency. It doesn’t matter what the size of the venue or how many people are attending, any event improperly secured is a risk ready to become a reality. We know you can call any event security company, so we are constantly improving and refining our security protocols for event security and refining and modernizing the techniques of our event security guards. There will be some cheaper event security companies, some will be more expensive, but none will be better.
SPECIAL EVENT SECURITY
Special events (festivals, pop-up stores, product launches, marketing productions) require specific planning to execute security effectively. Often venue or location access is restricted prior to the event, and event details change up to the last minute, so security logistics planning is paramount. Knight Security will help you secure permits and liaise with local law enforcement and Fire Departments to ensure that traffic is properly routed and crowd management and fire safety protocols are in compliance. Communication between the venue, special event management, and planners keeps everyone informed so our event security guards and agents can prevent issues before they become problems. Our event security guards know they’re usually the first and last people guests encounter so they’re courteous and efficient, and will gladly assist in matters outside security when able.
CONCERT SECURITY
Concert Security is a multi-faceted exercise in event security management. There’s a lot going on: from people wandering about to dancing ecstatically to an angry (and very long) line at the women’s bathrooms. Each event and venue presents its own challenges, which Knight Security is uniquely skilled and positioned to manage seamlessly. There’s absolutely no substitute for concert security experience. We have a lot, on both the venue and performer side of the barricade. That’s why we work especially closely with internal events management and venue owner/operators and lessees to provide a transparent and seamless process, ensuring that venue property and attendees safety are both at the top of the list.
CORPORATE EVENT SECURITY
Executives, VIP guests and general attendees want to enjoy their time if the event is of a celebratory nature or to conduct company business in a safe and comfortable environment without interruption. Risk management is an integral part of our security planning for corporate events. Our security guards and teams are well-trained do their work with minimal visibility and complete discretion. In temperament and nature, this is usually a group that appreciates event security guards and agents that treat guests with a high level of respect and deference. The security guards entrusted with the safety and security of your guests must be of the highest caliber and rigorously trained to manage and mitigate even the most delicate of situations—should they arise.
PRODUCTION & RED CARPET SECURITY
Working with celebrities (and their entourages), publicists and paparazzi can be a handful. Throw in an adoring and enthusiastic crowd and it doesn’t get any easier. Red Carpet and show production security requires strict attention to detail, including site surveys, event logistics, permitting, security protocols and emergency preparedness planning. Crowds can get pretty big in hurry as famous figures already face unprecedented public and media attention. This attention becomes even greater during widely publicized special events like award shows and movie premieres. Our event security guards are well-trained to ensure guests are where they’re supposed to be, that all talent is secure and comfortable, and foot traffic is moving smoothly and securely.
