About TD Protection Services

Experienced professionals. Local roots.

Founded in Lancaster in 2020, we're a Central Pennsylvania protection company staffed by highly experienced law enforcement, security, and military professionals.

Our mission

Safe places for the people who gather in them.

Protecting people is a responsibility that deserves more than a generic security approach.

We started TD Protection Services to give houses of worship, organizations, and individuals the same careful, professional protection we practiced throughout our careers. That means looking for problems before they start, blending into the setting, and responding immediately if we have to.
