We live in uncertain times, no question about it. With breaking news of mass shootings throughout the year, people feel vulnerable in public places.

One of those places was the luxurious Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas—the base of operations for one of the deadliest shootings ever by an individual.

From a security standpoint, we all asked these questions: how did the gunman sneak 23 weapons and hundreds of rounds of ammunition into a hotel room on the 32^nd floor? And how could this go completely unnoticed?

Times Have Changed. When it comes to securing leisure facilities with heavy foot traffic, we’ve clearly entered a new era. Gone are the days when hotel security guards were trained mostly to stop petty theft and take care of drunk patrons.

Hotels now need to have serious security measures in place to respond, in the blink of an eye, to bomb threats and mass shootings.

At the same time, hotels are places where people want to enjoy themselves. Who wants a romantic getaway to turn into an airport-style security nightmare?

So how can hotels put appropriate security measures in place without reminding guests that the world is a dangerous place?

Here at Access Control Security, we have over 25 years of experience preventing crime at leisure venues by offering hotel and hospitality security. We work with you to ensure your site is secure and safe for patrons and employees.

Working Together. Our highly trained hotel security guards collaborate directly with the local police. Their uniforms send a reassuring message to hotel guests that the venue is under watch, and a clear warning to “bad guys” that security experts are on the scene.

Not only that, ACS installs state-of-the-art security cameras on hotel floors. Our security guards train hotel desk personnel, luggage handlers and cleaning crewmembers to spot suspicious bags and activity.

Teaming up to ensure that your guests enjoy their stay and feel secure makes sense. Contact Access Control Security today to discuss your hotel security needs.
