Your Safety Is Our Priority
Security Services You Can Count On
When safety is non-negotiable, experience makes all the difference. AmeriLex Security brings over 20 years of combined law enforcement experience to every security challenge we face. Founded by two dedicated professionals who met at the police academy over a decade ago, our company was built on a mission to deliver police-grade security services that exceed industry standards.
Our founders—Daniel, a Marine Corps veteran and active police supervisor, and Jacob Webster, a loss prevention specialist who recently retired from law enforcement with one of the largest police agencies in Central Kentucky—understand what it takes to protect people, property, and peace of mind. We've walked the Lexington streets, responded to emergencies, and trained under some of the most rigorous standards in Kentucky.
Now, we're bringing that expertise to you through comprehensive security services and trainings for your businesses and institutions that are tailored to your unique needs. These services include VIP, Event, Guard and Law Enforcement, and security assessments. We also provide trainings which include workplace violence, de-escalation, and active shooter.
Our Services
VIP Security Services
Our VIP security management is led by experienced law enforcement professionals with backgrounds in executive and dignitary protection. Our guards work with corporate executives, public figures, high-net-worth individuals, and diplomatic personnel who require consistent, professional oversight. In some cases, protection is needed for a single appearance or event. In others, coverage is part of daily operations. No matter the need, our team is here to support you with reliable and actionable VIP security services so that you can attend your event with peace of mind.
Event Security Management
Whether you're planning a corporate function, Keeneland race day gathering, University of Kentucky event, concert, festival, or private celebration, our law enforcement professionals and guards handle event security services so you can focus on your guests. We've secured and conducted traffic for some of Kentucky's biggest occasions—from packed University of Kentucky games to Keeneland's busiest racing days. We visit your venue beforehand and build a security plan specific to your layout, crowd size, and potential concerns. From disturbances to medical emergencies, we have procedures in place for every scenario and coordinate seamlessly with local police if additional support is required.
Guard Security Services
For all security needs, we walk your location or site and build a security plan around your guests or employees. Our officers read situations quickly, stop problems before they start, and know exactly what to do if something goes wrong. For years, our owners have worked special assignments to give them the expertise to provide our clients with the best security possible. AmeriLex has provided security for government, corporate, religious, commercial sites, and many more. We can provide armed, unarmed, or even sworn police officers for any and all of your security needs.
