Business finance
Financing for Security Guards & Patrolling Services
Security firms rarely need heavy equipment — the cash pressure is payroll. Covering wages across a new contract, fitting out patrol vehicles, or buying uniforms, radios and monitoring gear can reach the ~$50,000 mark, and the wages go out long before clients settle. A working-capital line or invoice finance lets you take on a new contract, pay your guards on time, and bridge the 30-day-plus wait on client invoices without the payroll gap stalling your growth.
Common questions
Security Guards & Patrolling Services — business loan questions
Can finance cover wages while I wait on client payment?
That is exactly what working-capital and invoice finance are for. They bridge the gap between paying guards weekly and clients settling monthly, so a slow-paying client does not put your payroll at risk.
Can I finance patrol vehicles and equipment?
Yes — patrol vehicles, radios, monitoring and uniform fit-out can be financed. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender who understands a wage-heavy, contract-driven security business rather than treating you generically.
