Full-service guarding
Static posts, patrol guards, concierge officers and event teams across every industry served in Quebec City.
Quebec City · BSP corporate licence · Bilingual
A BSP-licensed security agency operating across Quebec City — full-service guarding, mobile patrols, event security and 24/7 emergency dispatch, with a permanent local team.
In Quebec, the Bureau de la sécurité privée (BSP) regulates security agencies under a single corporate licence class — agence de sécurité — and the standards are higher than most provinces. Background checks for every guard, mandatory training hours, a clean compliance file, and supervisors who hold an additional supervisor class. When you hire a security agency in Quebec City, you should be hiring a holder of that BSP corporate agency licence and nothing less. Vision Security holds it; many of the smaller competitors in the market either rely on subcontracting or operate at the edge of compliance.
What separates agencies in Quebec City is not the licence — it's what they do with it. We've spent years building a Quebec-native service model: bilingual French-English staffing as the default, a dispatcher who picks up in under a minute, named supervisors who actually visit sites, written post orders for every mandate, and incident reports delivered the morning after each shift. Our clients in Vieux-Québec, Sainte-Foy, Lévis and across the Capitale-Nationale stay because they don't have to chase us.
We function as a full-service agency: ongoing static posts, mobile patrols, event details, executive protection, loss prevention, and short-notice emergency response. We coordinate with our Montreal team for clients who operate across the Quebec corridor, and we maintain relationships with the Sûreté du Québec and the SPVQ for incident reporting and police liaison. If you're shortlisting agencies, ask each one for their BSP corporate agency licence number, their insurance certificate, and a reference from a Quebec City property manager. We can deliver all three same-day.

Response time: Under one hour metropolitan Quebec City
24/7 supervised dispatch from a local team. On-call rosters maintained for short-notice fire watches, post-incident standbys, eviction support and emergency event coverage across Quebec City, Lévis and the Capitale-Nationale.
Hourly rates vary by province, post type, training requirements and how much notice you give. Below is the realistic range we see in 2025 for unarmed licensed guards on standard posts. Treat anything well below these as a red flag.
If a quote is well under the low end, ask to see the agency's licence number, insurance certificate and training records before contracting. Cheap usually means cut corners somewhere.
When a bid comes in well below market, the savings are usually being generated somewhere illegitimate. The most common shortcuts:
Ask any agency for: agency licence number, $5M COI naming you, training records, supervisor schedule and a 24/7 dispatch number that rings to a real person. If they can't produce all five, walk away.
Send us your site, your hours and your compliance requirements. You'll receive our BSP licence file, insurance certificate, written staffing plan and a written quote within one business day.
