  Yes — both randomized mobile patrol and dedicated all-night standing guards are available. Dedicated overnight on-site officer: $189/night. Randomized patrol tours: $15/visit. Both are body-cam equipped, GPS-verified, and dispatched same-night for active incidents.

• What does an apartment security patrol officer actually do?+

  Perimeter slow-pass with amber light bar, foot walk of breezeways and laundry rooms, pool gate lock check after hours, dumpster enclosure inspection, tow-tag parking enforcement, vacant unit door checks, encampment/trespass contact with body-cam evidence, and lighting outage logging for maintenance.

• How does night apartment security patrol keep residents safe in their units?+

  Randomized marked-SUV tours every 90–120 minutes between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m., foot walks of every breezeway and laundry room, lit-amenity lock checks, and a body-cam officer reachable on a direct line for any resident who feels unsafe walking from car to door. Most communities see noise and trespass complaints drop within 30 nights.

• What's your lockup and unlock procedure for apartment amenities?+

  Per the community post-orders: pool, gym, clubhouse, dog-park, mail-kiosk and laundry are lock-verified at posted closing time with a photo on every lock, then unlocked at posted opening time with a second photo. Liability-grade timestamp record routed in the sunrise PDF — critical for slip-and-fall and after-hours-injury defense.

• How do you respond to aggressive panhandlers and solicitors at the property?+

  Marked-vehicle response within the patrol window, non-confrontational 20-ft buffer enforcement per Sacramento City Code §9.16.110, lawful CA PC §602 trespass advisement signed on-scene and kept on file, body-cam evidence of every contact, and SPD dispatch on aggressive contact (CA PC §647(c)). The same offender doesn't get a second free pass.

• What do you do about drug activity or fentanyl smoke in the breezeways?+

  Body-cam contact, HSC §11532 loitering-for-drug-activity advisement on probable contact, lawful CA PC §602 trespass on the property, plate capture on visiting vehicles, biohazard log routed to maintenance, and SPD Narcotics escalation on confirmed sales or use. We build the court-ready packet PMs need for evictions and SPD operations.

• How do you handle squatters in vacant units between turnovers?+

  Vacant-unit door and window integrity checks on every nightly tour, photo log of any seal break, immediate dispatch on confirmed unauthorized occupancy, lawful CA PC §602 trespass advisement, and SPD escalation. Most squatter incidents are caught and resolved within the first photo-verified breach.

• Will the patrol remove squatters and trespassers?+

  Yes — body-cam contact, lawful California 602 trespass paperwork, and Sacramento PD / Sheriff dispatch for criminal escalation. We document patterns so evictions stick.

• How fast can apartment patrol start at my property?+

  Same night for active incidents (break-ins, squatters, ongoing trespass). 24–48 hours for scheduled recurring patrol — phone walkthrough, emailed post orders, marked SUV on the route within the week.

• Is the apartment patrol company licensed and insured?+

  Yes — Stormhammer Security, Inc. holds California BSIS Private Patrol Operator license PPO #121830 with $2M general liability and workers' compensation. Verifiable on the BSIS license-lookup portal.

• Do you serve large apartment portfolios and HOA-managed communities?+

  Yes — multi-property property management portfolios are our largest segment. Bulk pricing, consolidated PM-facing morning reports, and a single dispatch line for every property in the portfolio.

• What's included in the morning report to property management?+

  Per-tour GPS timestamp + map pin, photo log of every checkpoint, body-cam clips of any contact, lawful trespass paperwork, tow-tag log with plate + unit, lighting outage list for maintenance, and an incident summary — delivered as a single board-ready PDF before the leasing office opens.
