Frequently Asked Questions
How do I validate a Security Firm Licence in QLD?
The validity of a Queensland Security Firm Licence is verified through the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) online public register to ensure the vendor is authorised for specific site requirements.
What separates Class 1 and Class 2 Security Firm Licences in Queensland?
A Class 1 Security Firm Licence covers physical manpower services like security officers and crowd controllers, while a Class 2 Licence strictly covers electronic security and equipment installers.
Does a standard QLD licence automatically cover Grade A1 monitoring?
No. If a contract requires specialised deployments—such as monitoring security officers, dog patrols, or cash-in-transit—the firm’s OFT licence must explicitly include those approved categories.
Can a Queensland security firm subcontract services without additional licencing?
Under Queensland law, if a security firm subcontracts any portion of their contractual duties, the subcontracting entity is also legally required to hold the appropriate class of Security Firm Licence.
How does StateGuard structure its Queensland operations?
We hold combined Class 1 and Class 2 Security Firm Licences, allowing us to legally execute a highly integrated security partnership model combining on-the-ground guards with technical monitoring centres.
