COMMITTED to our clients

At Columbia Protection, we consistently offer the best value, not always the lowest price.

Our focus isn’t on being the cheapest, but on delivering protection that’s effective, reliable, and built to last. We look beyond the immediate request and offer strategies that improve safety, reduce long-term risk, and ultimately save our clients money through smarter security planning over time.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. We take the time to listen, understand your needs, and deliver only the services that truly serve your goals, not what’s easiest or most profitable. That’s how we build lasting partnerships: through honesty, expertise, and a commitment to doing what’s right.

Business Basics

As priced

  • Unlike any patrol service you’ve worked with to date, we offer comprehensive security patrols starting at just $18/Each before discounts.

    Our patrol service includes an in-depth walkthrough of your property featuring a full physical safety assessment, detailed inspection of entry and egress points, and identification of any unauthorized activities or security concerns. Clients receive practical recommendations to enhance their overall security posture.

    We proudly offer the most comprehensive patrol in Spokane and deliver real, lasting results.

    As a testament to our quality and lasting impact, we have been told by clients that one of our patrols is worth about 4 from “the other guy”.

    One of our clients had this to say:

    “We have worked with another private security company at NTSQ over the past 4 years and during a 12-month window of increasing illegal camping, vandalism and loitering our only response was to add more patrols ultimately costing a considerable amount of more money. In the fall of 2025, NTSQ hired Columbia Protection Security to patrol NTSQ and immediately we saw positive results including minimal to no illegal camping. We found Columbia’s approach of engaging with the trespassers to be effective. I am honored to recommend Columbia Protection.”

  • At Columbia Protection, our services are designed to be flexible, affordable, and tailored to your needs.

    Camera monitoring is available for $300 per month, which includes 5 free responses and any requested patrol stops for $18.

    If you need an on-site (static) officer, the rate is $65 per hour, which also includes free monitoring and discounted patrol stops at $15 each.

    For those looking beyond routine patrols, we also provide event security, consulting, and more…just call us at (509) 342-SAFE.

    Random patrols alone are not enough. We deliver true protection.

    Lincoln County, Washington has been so pleased with our on-site services that they had this to say:

    “Lincoln County District Court has contracted with Columbia Protection for security services since July 2025. Since that time Columbia Protection has consistently demonstrated exceptional responsiveness and reliability. Their team is attentive to the needs of the court and promptly addresses any questions or requests we may have.

    In addition to maintaining a secure environment, Columbia Protection personnel interact with court visitors in a respectful and professional manner. They understand that many individuals entering the court may be experiencing stress or uncertainty, and their calm presence and friendliness help create a welcoming and orderly atmosphere while still prioritizing safety. Their officers consistently present themselves with professionalism in both attitude and appearance reflecting positively on both their organization and Lincoln County.

    Columbia Protection has also been proactive in assisting our court with identifying and implementing measures to improve overall safety. Their willingness to share insight, offer recommendations, and support enhanced security practices demonstrates their commitment not only to fulfilling their contractual duties but to serving the broader interests of the court and the community.

    Based on our experience, I can confidently recommend Columbia Protection to any organization seeking dependable, professional, and community minded security services.”

    One of our event clients had this to say:

    “Mike Moglia, Chief Executive Officer of Columbia Protection, and his partner were highly recommended to us by our administrative office. They joined our volunteer Security Team at the Christian Church where I attend for a 3-night Christmas living nativity event open to the public. This year about 5,000 outside guests attended and those Columbia Protection guys were solid! They met with us ahead of time, asked very good questions, get well acquainted with our team, became familiar with the geographical lay of our campus (inside and out) and integrated into our already existing cadre and strategy. I have had volunteers on our security team who were active-duty military personnel with top security clearances and prior duty experience protecting the elected President, Vice President and Secretary of State for the United States Government. Mike and his partner were cut from the same cloth! I commend them for their service and recommend them highly.”
