Level III · Armed

Automotive dealership security for lots and showrooms

Your inventory sits on an open lot long after the showroom closes. Ophion Tactical Security posts armed officers to patrol the lot, check gates and buildings overnight, and keep a uniformed presence during sales and service hours.

Straight answers.

The questions people ask before they reach out. If yours isn’t here, ask us directly.

We start by learning how your property runs, often on a site walk with you. From that we write the post orders, agree who we report to and how, and schedule officers to your operating hours. Officers are briefed on those post orders and work under field supervision.

It depends on what the property needs. An on-site armed security officer holds a post for the hours you need covered, which suits access control and a fixed presence. Mobile patrol covers a property through vehicle patrols, and Ophion scopes either one, or a mix of both, around the site and its location.

Yes. Officers document incidents on site. Routine reporting is defined when the program is set up: its format, its frequency and who receives it are agreed with your point of contact.

Monitoring can be part of an ongoing security program: watching a client’s existing camera feeds, documenting activity and coordinating response. Ophion does not install cameras, alarms or access-control hardware, and can refer those needs to qualified partners.

Yes. Ophion Tactical Security holds Texas Department of Public Safety license B28459401. Armed security officers are Level III commissioned security officers, and protection agents are Level IV Personal Protection Officers.

Send us the location, the schedule and what you need protected. We follow up to go over the details and confirm the scope with you. Your quote is built on that scope: the site, event or person, the hours and the staffing it takes.

Need more than one kind of coverage?

Some assignments do, such as an event that needs security officers at the doors and a protection agent with the guest of honor. Open a category to see everything we staff.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. Tell us what you need, and we’ll help you work out what coverage makes sense.
