Security guard services in the San Fernando Valley, the Los Angeles County region north of the Santa Monica Mountains: unarmed officers licensed by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) for studio and production sites in Burbank and Studio City, Ventura Boulevard storefronts, Warner Center offices and industrial parks in Chatsworth and Van Nuys.
Most of the Valley communities on our list, including Van Nuys, Encino, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Reseda, Canoga Park, Chatsworth and Woodland Hills, are neighborhoods inside the City of Los Angeles. Burbank and Calabasas are separate incorporated cities. That matters for security guard services in the San Fernando Valley more than people expect: it decides which police department takes a call, which fire department writes a fire watch order, and who issues the permit for a film shoot on your street.
The Valley is also where much of Los Angeles film and television work happens. Studio lots in Burbank and Studio City, and the production offices, prop houses, equipment rental yards and stages around them, all need gate posts, overnight equipment watches and short-run coverage on location.
Coverage for studios and production, a long commercial boulevard, office towers in the west Valley and hillside homes.
Gate and lobby posts for production offices, medical buildings along Ventura Boulevard and Warner Center office towers.

Beyond the studios, most Valley posts are offices, medical buildings, apartment blocks, Ventura Boulevard restaurants and auto dealerships.
Four Valley communities have their own page so far. Our coverage runs from Burbank and Studio City in the east to Woodland Hills, Canoga Park and Chatsworth in the west, and the whole region is in scope.
Calabasas, Canoga Park, Reseda.
From Ventura to San Bernardino, our licensed officers and 24/7 dispatch protect five Southern California regions. Click a pin or county on the map to see every city we cover.
Studio lots, post-production houses, Hollywood Burbank Airport and the office buildings around them. Posts here run on credentials and gate lists, and on keeping fans and photographers out of places they do not belong.
Restaurants, medical and professional offices, banks and boutique shops stacked along one long street from Studio City through Sherman Oaks and Encino to Woodland Hills, with residential hills right behind. Rear doors and alley lots are the weak side of most of these buildings.
Van Nuys Airport, the courthouse and government buildings of the Van Nuys civic center, auto shops and light industry, and a lot of apartment buildings. Carports, vacant units and small industrial units get most of the attention here.
Warner Center office towers and new apartment blocks in Woodland Hills, then business parks and industrial yards in Canoga Park and Chatsworth. Big parking structures and quiet weekends make patrol checks and lock-up useful.
Homes against the Santa Monica Mountains and the Santa Susana foothills are in wildfire zones. On red-flag days and after evacuations, empty streets need patrol and damaged homes need someone watching them.
On-location filming in the City of Los Angeles, which covers most of the Valley, is permitted through FilmLA. The permit sets the dates, hours and locations, and the security post for a shoot should be built around it: base camp and equipment trucks overnight, the set perimeter during work hours, and picture cars and rental gear between shoot days.
Holding traffic on a public street for a shot is handled by sworn officers under the permit conditions, not by private security. Our officers stay on the production's side of the line: watching equipment, keeping onlookers out of the working area, checking crew credentials at base camp and logging who comes and goes. Studio lot posts work the same way, with the studio's own gate lists and badge rules written into the post orders.
