Black Knight Security
Founded in 2003, Black Knight Security (BKS) specializes in security for commercial, residential, manufacturing, and industrial properties.
BKS exceeds standard guard service by offering emergency action planning and security consulting services, as well as training classes for facility occupants on how to respond to emergencies. Every BKS security guard is thoroughly screened, trained extensively, and also certified by the American Heart Association in first aid, CPR, and the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) – an unusual attribute for a security company.
Black Knight Security provides protection, safety and education for tenants, visitors, and workers with a strict focus on preparedness, which is the key to not only feeling safe, but actually being safer.
Black Knight Security is a proud member of BOMA Pittsburgh, BOMA Chicago, and ABOMA.
