Quoting security guard services at a fixed price
A security quote should set out the post schedule, armed or unarmed officers, the regular, overtime and holiday bill rates, patrol frequency and the minimum shift length.
The quote turns 159 hours of labour into a fixed $5,349.00; if the job runs over, the security company absorbs the extra time, so quote hours you are confident about.
The biggest single commitment is "Unarmed officer, overnight post" at $4,608.00 (74% of the price): name the exact model, grade or deliverable so there is no argument about what was promised.
What is fixed in this quote
- Labour: Unarmed officer, overnight post, Holiday shift at holiday bill rate and Alarm response callout, fixed at $5,349.00.
- Services: Mobile patrol checks of laydown yard, Supervisor post inspection and Guard tour checkpoints and daily activity reports, fixed at $710.00.
- Fees: Site survey and written post orders, fixed at $150.00.

The acceptance block
A quote becomes an agreement when the customer accepts it; leave room at the bottom of quote QUO-9215 for:
- The accepted price, $6,209.00, and the quote number
- Customer name (Sam Patel in the sample), signature and date
- When payment is due: Billed weekly, Net 15
- The last day the price holds (30 days after issue in this sample)
Security Guard Service pricing tips
- List hours per post and per night with officer badge numbers that match the daily activity reports, because facility managers check the invoice against the guard tour log before approving it.
- Name the dates billed at the holiday rate in the contract and repeat them on the invoice, since the client's holiday calendar and yours rarely line up.
- Bill short-notice coverage at the agreed premium rate on its own line, with the time the request came in, instead of folding it into regular post hours.
- Put your company's state security license number on every invoice; commercial clients and general contractors routinely ask for it when setting you up as a vendor.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write a security guard service quote?
List exactly what is included (7 lines for thirteen nights of unarmed overnight guarding at a construction site, including one holiday, with patrol checks and an alarm response in the sample), give one fixed price ($6,209.00), the validity period and payment terms, and add a signature block for acceptance.
Is a security guard service quote binding once accepted?
Generally yes: an accepted quote is a fixed-price offer for the scope it describes, so extra work needs a new quote or a signed variation. Local contract law decides the details.
Should a security guard service quote ask for a deposit?
New clients are often asked for a deposit or the first week in advance, because officers are paid every week whether or not the client has paid.
