Why security teams struggle with outdated patrol methods
Paper logs, missed checkpoints, and scheduling chaos are costing you time, money, and peace of mind. These outdated methods put your sites and reputation at risk.
Officers leaving post without you knowing
Abandoned posts mean vulnerable sites. When officers skip checkpoints or take shortcuts, you're flying blind until something goes wrong. By then, it's already too late.
Incident reports that
disappear or get missed
Handwritten logs get lost, forgotten, or filed too late to be useful. When you need to pull records for clients or investigations, you're scrambling through messy paperwork.
No-shows, call-offs, &
scheduling nightmares
Last-minute call-offs, double-booked guards, and unmanned posts create chaos. You're constantly playing catch-up instead of staying ahead of security needs.
How real-time communication leads to workforce consitency
Paper logs, missed checkpoints, and scheduling chaos are costing you time, money, and peace of mind. These outdated methods put your sites and reputation at risk.

FAQs
Belfry is a complete solution for security guard companies managing a roster of officers. Guards can download the app, choose the shifts that suits them and instantly see the patrol routes, checkpoints and post orders they need. In real-time, operations staff can track guard locations on a web dashboard and monitor incoming incident reports directly from guards.
While there's no minimum employee requirement, companies with 10 or more security officers benefit most from management software like Belfry. However, if your guards patrol multiple sites or work solo shifts, Belfry can help you track their activities and eliminate paperwork regardless of team size.
Belfry is designed to work alongside your current tools for scheduling, access control, and surveillance systems. Our dedicated onboarding team will help assess your existing setup and ensure smooth integration during implementation.
Both verify officer locations, but NFC tags are faster (just tap) and more secure, while QR checkpoint scans can be spoofed easily. NFC costs more upfront but provides better tamper resistance and quicker check-ins for high-frequency patrol routes.
Belfry uses competitive & comprehensive per-user pricing, so you pay based on the size of your organization. No nickel-and-diming - a simple per-user price ensures predictability.
