Retail Loss Prevention in Rio Linda — common questions.
Can your retail officers in Rio Linda detain shoplifters?
+
Under California Penal Code §490.5 (merchant's privilege), yes — when authorized by your store's written LP policy. Rio Linda officers follow a strict observe-document-report protocol and call Rio Linda/Sacramento PD for arrest. Hands-on apprehension only with explicit written client policy.
Is uniformed presence really better than plainclothes for Rio Linda retail?
+
For deterrence, yes. A uniformed officer at the entrance of a Rio Linda 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.
What kinds of incidents can your Rio Linda 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. Rio Linda officers de-escalate, document, and call Rio Linda/Sacramento PD for anything requiring arrest or force.
Do you do background checks on guards assigned to Rio Linda?
+
Yes. Every officer dispatched to Rio Linda is BSIS-licensed (which itself requires a state and federal background check), drug-tested at hire, and re-screened on a defined schedule. We document the file and can share verification with the client on request.
Will Stormhammer coordinate with Rio Linda police if needed?
+
Yes. We have working relationships with Rio Linda/Sacramento PD non-emergency dispatch and the Sacramento County Sheriff. Our incident reports are formatted in a way Rio Linda officers can use directly — time-stamped, plate captures included, officer name and badge documented.
Do you offer 24/7 retail loss prevention in Rio Linda?
+
Yes — our dispatch line at (530) 902-9390 is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and answers live (no IVR). Mobile patrol in Rio Linda can begin the same night you call; static guard posts typically start within 24–48 hours.
Do you provide a written report after each Rio Linda patrol?
+
Yes. Every Rio Linda 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.
How is Stormhammer different from the big national security companies in Rio Linda?
+
Local Sacramento dispatch picks up on the first ring (no offshore call center), the officer assigned to your Rio Linda property knows the corridor, and you're billed per night / per shift — not locked into a 12-month national contract. Our PPO is held in California and our owner is reachable.
Are your Rio Linda officers armed?
+
No. Stormhammer is intentionally 100% unarmed and non-lethal in Rio Linda 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.
