I am a long time customer of Meridian and I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for top notch security guards and training courses. Edwin, the owner of the company, is a United States Marine Corps veteran and law enforcement officer who has extensive knowledge on what is needed to create a truly secure and strictly professional environment, both in garrison and in training. I especially want to highlight that they offer All of the courses needed to get started as a security guard, including the basic guard card, up to all of the armed permits that would be required like exposed firearm, baton, and OC spray permits (including power to arrest certificate, etc). -- not to mention also offering LAPD CCW permits, live Scan services, and much more. The private range he uses for qualifications is awesome, a very secure and might I say beautifully scenic area where you can feel comfortable. If you are someone who has little experience to firearms, and is actually generally uncomfortable with them, might I suggest taking his beginner or intermediate handgun course! The primary focus is always safety first and ensuring all basic fundamentals of handling a firearm in a safe manner are covered right off the bat and continuously through the course. All in all, Meridian Security group is there to protect anything you need and provide the necessary training to get started in a security career. 10/10 read more

The team at Meridian were amazing. Personable, professional, hands on beginner firearm training in a semi-private, outdoor range setting. They created an environment to ask questions, be hands on with a variety of firearms and always kept safety-first as the main priority while on the range. read more

We participated in the May 9th Beginner Handgun Class. This was our first handgun class and all the instructors were fantastic. We were paired up with James and Edwin. Both were patient, detailed and made us feel comfortable handling the firearms. They provided safety instructions first then progressed on to how to handle the gun, then we started shooting. They provided pointers to improve our stance and gave us drills to improve upon our shooting consistency. We plan to take further classes with them to improve upon our skills. We highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in handling a firearm for safety and security. We have already referred a friend. Great value for the cost. read more

We hired Meridian for a very high profile and important project that extended for a month. The needs for our security team were to not only be a security presence but also client facing, executive protection, celebrity escort, and ensuring highly confidential intellectual property remained private (no pics, no social media) until launch. The Meridian team met and exceeded every one of these asks. Under the calm , steady and strong leadership of Edwin Bardales, they were professional, punctual, great with the clients, communicated often and effectively with our team. Our client , a global brand , was extremely pleased at not only the security and emergency plan but how it was executed and the quality of the men and women on the Meridian Security team. I highly recommend their services and can't wait to partner with them again. read more
