Retail Loss Prevention in Auburn — common questions.
Can your retail officers in Auburn detain shoplifters?
+
Under California Penal Code §490.5 (merchant's privilege), yes — when authorized by your store's written LP policy. Auburn officers follow a strict observe-document-report protocol and call Auburn/Roseville PD for arrest. Hands-on apprehension only with explicit written client policy.
Is uniformed presence really better than plainclothes for Auburn retail?
+
For deterrence, yes. A uniformed officer at the entrance of a Auburn store reduces shrink at the moment of decision. Plainclothes is better suited to organized-retail-crime investigation, which is a different and more expensive scope.
How fast can you get a guard to my Auburn property?
+
Mobile patrol in Auburn: same night, often within 60–120 minutes for fire-watch and emergency dispatch. Static guard posts: typically 24–48 hours so we can match the right officer to the post and brief them on your post orders.
Do you cover special events at Auburn apartment or HOA communities?
+
Yes — pool parties, holiday gatherings, leasing-office open houses, and annual board meetings. Auburn communities typically add 1–2 officers on event night with a 4-hour minimum, scheduled around the regular patrol.
Are your Auburn officers armed?
+
No. Stormhammer is intentionally 100% unarmed and non-lethal in Auburn and every market we serve. You get visible deterrence, de-escalation training, GPS-verified tours, and clean documentation — without firearms on your property and without the insurance loading that comes with armed coverage.
What if there's a real emergency at my Auburn property?
+
Officers radio dispatch immediately, photograph the scene if safe, and call 911 — Sacramento County emergency services typically respond to Auburn within minutes. We document the timeline for your insurer and stay on scene through PD/Fire arrival.
What kinds of incidents can your Auburn officers actually handle?
+
Trespass, loitering, after-hours nuisance complaints, parking violations, lockouts, graffiti/biohazard spotting, lock-checks, alarm-response standby, and chain-of-custody on found property. Auburn officers de-escalate, document, and call Auburn/Roseville PD for anything requiring arrest or force.
Do you provide a written report after each Auburn patrol?
+
Yes. Every Auburn tour and shift produces a PDF incident report with GPS-tagged checkpoints, time-stamped photos, and officer notes — delivered by 8 a.m. the next morning to whatever email distribution your property manager specifies.
Can I see the GPS track from last night's Auburn patrol?
+
Yes — the morning PDF report includes the GPS-tagged tour with checkpoint photos. Auburn property managers running portfolios can request a live dashboard login showing every tour across every property in real time.
