Our biggest service

Security guardsPeople who have lived a bit.

Our men and women come from all walks of life and bring a rich wealth of knowledge and experience to every shift. That is what makes ETI different.

Not your usual

Discipline, planning and a steady hand when it gets busy.

ETI security officer, teachers

Teachers

Not ready to stop. Brilliant with crowds and with people.

Every one of them goes through exactly the same training and certification as our youngest staff, and they are delighted to do it.

Gold ETI Security Officer badge

Two IDs.
One we hand you.

Every qualified guard gets a government-issued ID from the Private Security Authority, with their own registration number. They also get a brass ETI company badge, theirs for as long as they stay with us.

It is how we remember our roots. ETI was first incorporated in 1992 in Dallas, Texas, where badges were the custom, and we have carried it on ever since.

For clients who want to travel safely around the country without public transport or taxis. Airport pick-ups and door-to-door delivery in luxury air-conditioned four-wheel drives, with specially trained drivers and, if needed, a trained medical professional on board.

People stay.
That says it all.
