Two Way Radios For Security & Security Guards

Two-way radios are used extensively for security. Keeping the security team members in contact is absolutely essential and two way radios (or walkie talkies) make absolutely sure team members are kept in contact to ensure their safety.

The industry which almost definitely uses the most two way radios is the security sector. Radiotronics Canada provides two way radios for all of the security sub-sectors.

Manned Guarding
Close Protection
Private Surveillance
Control Room

Radiotronics Canada can supply all brands of two way radio and you can be sure that we'll suggest exactly the right product for all aspects of the security sector.

Earpieces are absolutely essential in security. See our security earpieces below for a selection of covert and over-ear earpieces.

Two Way Radios For Bouncers

Bouncers are required in almost all late night bar and nightclub to help with safety aspects such as capacity and crowd control. Communication between workers is a essential, allowing members of the security personal to be alerted quickly should an issue arise.

The size of the venue has an impact on the number of people working as security. A single room venue might require a simple two way radio system. Whereas a venue that spans multiple floors or rooms would require a more complex two way radio solution.

Two way radios allow the members of the security team to remain in contact with the management team at all times, alerting when the venue is reaching capacity or highlighting an issue.

Due to the often loud nature of such venues, when purchasing earpieces it is often recommended that a member of staff use an in-ear earpiece, this to ensure clear reception of messages.

Two Way Radios For Bodyguards

Bodyguards guarding someone fairly important. Sometimes security watches discreetly at a distance, meaning sources may need an extended range in their two way radios.

The environment can determine what brand or type of radio needed, where as in a built-up city a UHF radio would be required due to the signals having to breach structures, A VHF radio would be better put to use at an event such as a festival to protect artists where there are large open spaces.

Push to talk over cellular can also be an option for such operations, this due to its extended range allowing for a control room or supervisor to remain in contact with security personnel. PoC allows for instant communication, the only breach being should the user enter an area with little to no cellular coverage such as tunnels or underground rooms unless a WiFi network is available.

Should PoC be something you are interested in learning more about, Radiotronics Canada is partnered with WirelessConnected to supply satellite broadband.

Two Way Radios For Surveillance

In surveillance, discretion is a key aspect. Wires and radios must be able to be well hidden. Clear acoustic tube earpieces can be used to ensure that incoming communications are hidden from unwanted eyes, allowing for communication and instruction in an instance.

Location tracking is available via handsets using GPS ensuring that the location of an operative is known at all times, with software being available for all leading manufacturers ensuring the base station is kept up to date with current location and status of the radio and its user.

Surveillance work may lead to considerable distances being covered, push to talk over cellular would be an ideal implementation due to the extended reach of communications, allowing for updates to be made no matter what distance between the two devices.

Security Two Way Radios Earpieces

Security teams will require different earpiece types depending on the environment they are working in.

Acoustic earpieces allow for the discreet use of a two way radio, often having the possibility to both receive and transmit without touching the radio, more commonly using an in-line microphone.

Common earpieces found in the security sector include:

2-wire earbud
2-wire Acoustic
D-Shape
G-Shape

Security Control Room Solutions

Control rooms are the centre of planning and implementation of working environments, monitoring progress and ensuring safety and efficiency in the workplace. A central location allows for a supervisor to be monitoring activity of workers, using CCTV to look for potential issues allowing the security personnel to be notified ahead of time.

Radiotronics Canada can supply dispatch solutions for a variety of differing manufacturers including TRBOnet for Motorola systems, Smart Dispatch for Hytera systems, RMS-Net for Icom and Two Way Radio Anywhere if PoC radios are purchased. These software have a variety of functions, more information can be found on our control solutions page.

Some of the benefits that a control room solution can offer include GPS radio tracking, IP repeater connection with no gateway radios, radio recording, telephone interconnect and complex call routing.*
