What a guard costs in Lagos
There is no fixed platform rate. Each verified company sets its own hourly rate, and SirturG multiplies it by the number of officers, the hours of cover you choose and the type of protection. The full amount is shown before you confirm and pay — nothing is added on arrival.
| Type of cover | Rate applied |
|---|---|
| Standard guard | Company's base hourly rate |
| Armed officer | 1.45× the base hourly rate |
| Executive / VIP escort | 1.8× the base hourly rate |
| Event & crowd control | 1.25× the base hourly rate |
Price = base hourly rate × officers × hours × cover type. Payment is online after the booking is confirmed.

- How quickly can a guard reach me in Lagos?
- Response depends on how many partner officers are on duty near you at that moment and on traffic. Once a job is assigned you see the officer's live position and an ETA calculated from real driving routes.
- How much does a security guard cost in Lagos?
- You see the full price before you confirm. Pricing is based on how many hours of cover you need, how many officers, and whether you want armed or unarmed protection — no callout surcharges are added afterwards.

- Yes. You can book from a couple of hours up to full overnight cover for a home, event, shop or site anywhere in Lagos. No long-term contract is required.
