Security Considerations in Daytona Beach

The local calendar is shaped by large events. Speedweeks and the Daytona 500 in February, Bike Week in March and Biketoberfest in October bring heavy crowds to the Speedway area, hotels and retail centers within a few weeks of each other. Sites near International Speedway Boulevard often need added officers, traffic control at lot entrances and Post Orders that change for event weeks.

Oceanfront hotels and condominiums along A1A see steady visitor turnover through spring break and the summer season, which places attention on lobby access, parking garages and pool and beach entrances. Retail centers such as Tanger Outlets and One Daytona serve both visitors and residents, with weekend and evening traffic that runs later than in many inland markets.

Hurricane season runs from June through November, and coastal properties may need storm preparation, fire watch during power or alarm outages and access control while repairs are made. Summer heat and afternoon storms also affect outdoor posts, so schedules account for rest breaks, shaded positions and rain procedures.

Security Services in Daytona Beach

Screening, Training and Supervision

Officers complete a five-stage screening process and tier-based training before assignment, including de-escalation and, for retail posts, organized retail crime recognition. Supervisors make unannounced site visits, and the McCray Operations Desk answers 24/7/365. Incidents are documented on scene, and clients receive reports in the same format at every location.

Florida Licensing

Florida security agencies are licensed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Licensing. Unarmed officers must hold a Class D security officer license, and armed officers must also hold a Class G statewide firearm license. McCray Global Protection holds Florida license B1300235.

Common Questions

Can coverage be increased during Speedweeks and Bike Week?

Yes. Additional officers can be scheduled for event weeks, with Post Orders updated for parking control, extended hours and higher foot traffic. Event coverage is planned and quoted after reviewing the site and the dates involved.

How is security guard coverage priced?

Rates depend on the officer classification, hours, schedule and site requirements. McCray provides a written rate schedule after reviewing the needs of each site. Holiday, overnight and short-notice coverage is billed at a premium rate.
