Founded in 1991, Sentry Event Services was built on a simple philosophy: that high-caliber security and exceptional customer service should go hand-in-hand. While the industry at the time relied on a rigid, hands-off approach, Sentry proved that a hospitality-first mindset could revolutionize crowd management and safety. Over the last three decades, that vision has taken us from our roots in Florida to a premier regional security and operations partner spanning the Eastern United States, from the Atlantic coast through the Midwest and Gulf regions. While we have scaled alongside some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment—managing operations for NFL games, NASCAR races, PGA tournaments, and major music festivals—we are just as deeply rooted in safeguarding everyday commercial environments like warehouses and hospitals, as well as managing local arenas and venues. The Evolution of Our Strength As we grew, so did our geographic reach. While expanding our presence in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions, BCM Security/Solutions Services, a well-established local provider that had previously integrated 1st Alert Security and Protection Services, merged into Sentry Event Services. Operating together under the Sentry name, this merger united decades of combined industry experience, localized expertise, and shared resources under one trusted brand. What We Do: Any Scale, Any Environment Today, Sentry is a fully integrated security and operations company. We have taken the precision planning and elite training required for massive stadium crowds and seamlessly adapted it to protect everyday spaces.
