Security 101 Expands SiteGuard 101 Platform With Becklar Remote Guarding

Security 101, a national provider of integrated commercial security solutions with more than 50 U.S. locations, has expanded its SiteGuard 101 platform through a new partnership with Becklar Remote Guarding. The addition enhances Security 101’s portfolio of proactive video monitoring services for enterprise clients nationwide.

The partnership combines Security 101’s integration expertise with Becklar’s remote guarding platform, which currently monitors over 30,000 cameras and reports preventing more than 100,000 crimes each year. Becklar now joins Security 101’s roster of SiteGuard 101 partners, providing 24/7 live video surveillance intervention and virtual guard services across the company’s customer base.

Ken Poole, chief revenue officer of Security 101, said Becklar was selected following an extensive evaluation of the remote guarding market. He cited the company’s proven track record, innovative platform, and ability to support large-scale deployments as key factors. Early implementations, Poole noted, have already demonstrated a smoother process compared to past providers.

Daniel Forrest, president of Becklar Remote Guarding, said the collaboration reflects a shared mission of preventing crime before it occurs. He highlighted the platform’s dealer-friendly design, which works with existing IP camera systems and requires no proprietary hardware, enabling rapid deployment across Security 101’s national footprint.

Becklar’s solution integrates AI-driven video analytics with live intervention specialists who can deliver real-time audio warnings and dispatch law enforcement when necessary. According to the companies, the approach can reduce security costs by 20% to 50% compared with traditional guard services while improving coverage and incident prevention.

Among the key benefits of the partnership:

• Immediate intervention with two-way audio warnings to deter intruders

• Reduced false alarms through AI-driven analytics

• 24/7 monitoring from U.S. and Canada-based command centers

• Compatibility with existing camera infrastructure

• Scalable coverage through Becklar’s seven monitoring centers in North America

The partnership is effective immediately, with Security 101 offices nationwide able to offer Becklar Remote Guarding to new and existing clients. The companies plan to showcase the integrated solution at GSX 2025.
