Why Six13Guard

According to Six13Guard, in their own words:

  • Frum and community-based

    Their guards are part of the frum community. They know shul protocols, Shabbos and Yom Tov logistics, and the local dynamics, so they can spot threats faster.

  • Largest armed-guard roster

    Six13Guard says it has the largest roster of trained armed guards among community security organizations in New York State.

  • Their own state-certified academy

    They run Six13 Academy, a New York State DCJS-certified security training center.

  • High standards

    Live-fire qualification twice a year, with a 90% minimum passing score.

  • Advanced training

    Dry-fire remediation, optics, de-escalation, radio operations and tactical trauma medicine.

  • Non-profit 501(c)(3)

    Licensed, bonded and insured security at near-cost rates, so full security is affordable.
