Why Temporary Security

Coverage that matches the moment, not a fixed contract

Security needs don’t always follow a schedule. A staffing gap, a last-minute event, a change in your travel plans, or a sudden increase in public exposure can all create a short-term need for professional coverage. PSI Security Service has provided temporary security guard services across metro Atlanta since 1989, working with businesses, event organizers, and individuals who need reliable, licensed officers on a defined timeline.

Every engagement starts with a confidential consultation, so the coverage matches the actual level of exposure involved — not a generic package.

For Athletes, Executives & Public Figures

Temporary security for high-profile individuals

Athletes, entertainers, and company directors face security needs that don’t align with standard event or business packages. A press appearance, a period of increased public attention, a family event, or a short stay in Atlanta can all call for coverage arranged around your schedule.

PSI Security works directly with individuals and their representatives — agents, business managers, or family offices — to scope an engagement, confirm timing, and deploy officers for the specific window required.

Every request is handled through a confidential consultation. We do not publish rates, case details, or client names for this type of engagement.

Vehicle Patrol

Temporary security vehicle patrol in Atlanta

Not every situation calls for a stationary guard. Marked patrol vehicles making scheduled or randomized passes are an effective option for construction sites, vacant properties, multi-location businesses, and residential properties during a defined period.

Patrol can be arranged as a standalone temporary service or paired with on-site officers for broader coverage across the Atlanta metro area.

  • Number of officers and whether coverage is single-post or multi-location
  • Armed vs. unarmed officer requirements
  • Notice period — short-notice and emergency requests are scoped separately

Mark AveraOur Client
Recently needed a Security service to keep an eye on a new Facility we were building and were having issues with theft. Jay was quick to respond and had security set up within 24 hours with officers in patrol vehicles. Our problems ended as soon as PSI was on site. I would recommend PSI for your security needs.

Annie GrunderOur Client
Jay was very professional and accommodating to a situation that we contacted PSI Security Service about. We hired a security guard and Jay also showed up to make sure they had all the information needed about a potential incident. I would certainly use their services again.

Marianne C.Our Client
Mr. Boudrie and the security guard arrived at the location prior to my arrival. We had a brief chat to review the concerns. Mr. Boudrie was very warm, professional and was reassuring of the level of safety for those participating in the meeting. Mr. Boudrie conducted a follow-up call to be sure all went well after he left the location and for the remainder of the meeting. The professional level of the services of PSI was greatly appreciated.

Rachel K.Our Client
I wanted to say thank you so much again for the incredible service from your team! Each guard on duty throughout the weekend was so kind and made sure to update us with any changes or concerns. We had full confidence in your team that our venue was secured and taken care of.

I also cannot thank you enough for coordinating the extension of the security services after our last minute date change. We so appreciate it!
