At the root of every guard’s training package is customer service. ACT guards are the first people to meet your customers, congregation, vendors, staff and investors, we expect the interaction to be positive 

ACT guards are friendly, approachable and polite, while at the same time maintaining a professional distance. 

ACT Protective Services is a General Services Administration certified contractor. As such, we have completed a long and rigorous vetting process from the federal government, including a review of our business, financial and current contracts before approving ACT as a GSA contractor.

About ACT

ACT Protective Services is a family run, full service, physical security firm. We have offices in North Andover Massachusetts and Salem New Hampshire. We are licensed and have been operating in both states since 2013.

Since opening we have grown to 30 guards performing many different tasks. We offer unarmed and armed, uniformed guards providing an overt presence. We also offer unarmed and armed guards in civilian clothes providing a covert presence, possibly for loss prevention or more discrete tasks. 

Our guards are trained in all aspects of security and customer service. In addition, they are briefed on the specific needs and concerns of each client. Armed guards are required to pass qualifications twice annually and attend additional training at that time. Guards are friendly with clients, staff and customers, but  keep a professional distance at all times. Absolute discretion is required of our staff.
