As Saskatchewan’s number one choice for quality security services, Blackbird Security is proud to partner with Sandman Signature Saskatoon South Hotel. Our highly trained security professionals – locally based in Saskatoon – will provide overnight Uniformed Security services to the Sandman hotel, offering expert protection and peace of mind to guests and staff alike. 

Boasting 230 stylish rooms and first-rate amenities, Sandman Signature South Hotel is a popular choice for visitors to Saskatoon. This sprawling destination is just a 10-minute drive from the city’s downtown core, offering two restaurant options, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, and refreshing pools to lounge in. With a four-star rating and guests arriving from all over the world, it’s no wonder that Sandman Signature South Hotel chose to team up with Blackbird Security for top-of-the-line protection. 

Let’s dive into the critical role that Uniformed Security guards play in hotel security and creating the best possible experience for all who enter. 

How Uniformed Security Can Benefit Hotels 

In the world of security, hotels come with particular challenges that require a nuanced and informed approach. Between a revolving door of guests, opportunities for theft, and the threat of unauthorized visitors, hotels can be a potential hotspot for security breaches and crime. So what role does Uniformed Security play in hotel protection?

First and foremost, uniformed security guards act as a visible deterrent to crime. Their presence suggests power and authority, sending the message that crime will be prevented and stopped in its tracks. In many cases, the sight of a uniformed guard is enough to prevent theft or crime before it’s started. With car theft being an unfortunate but common occurrence at hotels, visible uniformed security guards patrolling key areas and watching CCTV cameras can help significantly reduce the likelihood of successful theft. 

Uniformed officers can also act as a champion of hotel rules and policies, act as fire marshall in case of an emergency, provide first aid assistance, write incident reports, and patrol the perimeter, ensuring a safe, enjoyable, and controlled environment for guests and employees. 

Hotel Security - Why Partner with Blackbird?

So, what makes Blackbird uniquely positioned to offer quality hotel security services? Our hotel security guards undergo thorough training that gives them the tools to excel within a hospitality environment. Through our industry leading Blackbird Academy training school, our guards receive extensive customer service training, incident de-escalation training, and health and safety training.

As experts in customer service, our uniformed officers are ready to act as a helpful liaison for guests and visitors, which can be very beneficial for hotel staff as well as the guests they are assisting. If an issue arises with a guest in the middle of the night, Blackbird Security’s uniformed guards are prepared to deliver professional and effective help to customers and staff alike.  

Hire the Industry Leaders in Hotel Protection 

Even the most exceptional hotels can still be a target for vandalism, loitering and mischief. That’s why hiring an excellent security team is just as essential to hospitality as maintaining spotless and inviting rooms for guests. Our uniformed security guards are available on short or long-term contracts to provide an effective visual deterrent and frontline security response when and where you need it.

Measuring the effectiveness of security measures involves tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) to evaluate how well systems and personnel are meeting safety and asset protection goals. Start by analyzing incident response times, reductions in theft, vandalism, or shrinkage, and overall resolution rates for reported issues. Comparing pre- and post-implementation data helps demonstrate tangible improvements in safety and loss prevention. Regular audits, surveys, and risk assessment reports can also gauge the reliability and perception of security measures.

Key KPIs to track include:
- Incident response times: Faster responses to alarms or emergencies.
- Reduction in theft/vandalism: Compare loss data before and after implementation.
- Patrol compliance: Track patrol frequency and adherence via GPS or logs.
- False alarm rates: Lower rates ensure focus on real threats.
