A guide for HOA boards and gated communities: manned gate vs. virtual guard vs. unmanned access, courtesy patrol, CC&R enforcement limits, how security is funded through dues, and how to RFP and vet a licensed provider.
Read the residential & hoa security buyer's guidePrivate security in Tennessee is licensed at the state level by the the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance, Private Protective Services program. A legitimate company operating in Jackson holds a Contract Security Company license, which means it has cleared Tennessee PPS's ownership, background-check and insurance requirements. Ask for that license number in writing and verify it yourself — a certificate on the wall tells you nothing about current standing, since a license can be suspended or revoked.
Hiring an unlicensed company is a risk you carry. In Tennessee, operating without a license is misdemeanor (plus civil penalty) (Tenn. Code Ann. § 62-35-136 (general penalty, Class A misdemeanor); § 62-35-130 (civil penalty up to $2,000 per occurrence); § 62-35-134 (unlawful employments/activities)). Operating a contract or proprietary security company, or working as a guard, without a currently valid PPS license/registration is a Class A misdemeanor, and the Commissioner may separately assess a civil penalty of up to $2,000 per occurrence against the unlicensed operator.
