HARDCASTLE Training
Harden Your Castle
Against Violent Intruders
Take control of your safety with Hardcastle Training’s proactive, site-specific solutions designed to deter violent intruders and empower decisive action.
- 75-Point Security Inspection: Identify vulnerabilities and reinforce your defenses with a comprehensive assessment of your home, business, or facility — including safe firearm storage and strategic staging recommendations.
- Custom Emergency Response Plans: Tailored to your environment, these plans reduce risk for your family, staff, and visitors — while increasing risk for those who intend harm.
- On-Site Response Drills & Decision-Making Training: Build confidence and clarity under pressure with individualized emergency exercises and use-of-force decision-making drills using a simulated firearm — all conducted at your location.
