When disaster strikes New York City, every second counts. Building Security Services of New York has been protecting the city’s premier commercial properties for over 40 years, and we understand that natural disasters, emergencies, and crisis situations demand immediate, professional security response.
Our specialized disaster response security services ensure your Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island properties remain protected when it matters most.
As a family-owned security company serving New York City since 1982, we’ve witnessed firsthand how quickly emergencies can escalate in America’s most densely populated urban environment. From Hurricane Sandy’s devastating impact on Lower Manhattan’s Financial District to the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic across all five boroughs, our disaster response security teams have maintained critical protection for commercial properties, healthcare facilities, and essential infrastructure throughout the metropolitan area.
Our security services extend across all NYC districts, including the bustling commercial corridors of Midtown Manhattan, the industrial zones of Long Island City in Queens, the emerging business districts of Downtown Brooklyn, the healthcare complexes of the South Bronx, and the manufacturing areas of Staten Island’s West Shore.
We understand that each neighborhood presents unique challenges during emergency situations, and our locally-based security professionals are trained to respond effectively in every environment.
Property managers and building owners throughout Manhattan’s Garment District, Chelsea, and Flatiron neighborhoods rely on our one-hour emergency response guarantee. When disaster strikes, whether it’s a power outage affecting the entire East Side, flooding in Brooklyn’s Red Hook waterfront district, or civil unrest in Queens’ commercial corridors, our management team is available around the clock to deploy trained security personnel immediately.
Our disaster response protocol includes immediate site assessment, perimeter security establishment, access control implementation, and coordination with FDNY, NYPD, and other first responders. We maintain strategic positioning of response teams across key NYC locations, including facilities near Wall Street, Times Square, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Flushing’s business district, and St. George in Staten Island.
New York City’s unique urban landscape creates specific disaster response challenges. Our security teams are specially trained to handle emergencies common to the metropolitan area, including subway system disruptions affecting Midtown East and West Side properties, severe weather events impacting the Financial District and Battery Park area, and infrastructure failures that can affect entire neighborhoods from Williamsburg to Astoria.
We provide comprehensive disaster response security for:
Manhattan Commercial Districts: From the corporate towers of Midtown to the converted warehouses of SoHo and the emerging tech corridors of Hudson Yards, our teams understand the unique evacuation procedures, building codes, and tenant needs specific to each district.
Brooklyn’s Diverse Business Landscape: Our coverage extends from the industrial complexes near the Gowanus Canal to the modern office buildings in Downtown Brooklyn and the growing commercial areas of Long Island City and Dumbo.
Queens Commercial and Industrial Areas: We protect manufacturing facilities in Maspeth, office complexes in Jamaica, and the diverse business districts spanning from Astoria to Far Rockaway.
Bronx Healthcare and Institutional Facilities: Our specialized teams can serve the major medical centers near Yankee Stadium, the educational institutions along the Grand Concourse, and the industrial areas of Hunt’s Point.
Staten Island’s Strategic Locations: From the government facilities near St. George Terminal to the industrial complexes along the Arthur Kill, our teams provide comprehensive emergency coverage.
As active members of both the New York and New Jersey Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA), we stay current on the latest emergency preparedness protocols and technology solutions. Our disaster response security integrates seamlessly with existing building management systems, access control platforms, and emergency communication networks common throughout NYC’s commercial real estate sector.
Our technology-enhanced disaster response includes real-time communication with property management teams, instant reporting to building owners, and coordination capabilities with emergency services across all five boroughs. We understand the importance of maintaining business continuity for tenants while ensuring their safety during crisis situations.
For over four decades, we’ve protected some of New York City’s most prestigious commercial properties without a single major security incident. Our disaster response security services have been tested during every major emergency affecting the metropolitan area, from the 1977 blackout to September 11th, Hurricane Sandy, and the recent pandemic response.
Property managers choose our disaster response services because we eliminate the time-consuming burden of coordinating multiple emergency vendors. Instead of spending hours managing crisis response, our clients have a single point of contact available 24/7, allowing them to focus on tenant safety and business continuity. Our comprehensive approach reduces management time by 75% during emergency situations while providing superior protection.
Whether you manage Class A office towers in Manhattan’s Plaza District, industrial facilities in Queens’ Maspeth area, healthcare properties in Brooklyn’s Park Slope neighborhood, or mixed-use developments in the Bronx’s Grand Concourse corridor, our disaster response security is tailored to your specific needs.
