About this seven-point star security shield
A star is the oldest shorthand for a peace officer, and seven points nod to the badges private officers often carry. Placed on a plain black shield with gold lettering, it gives a guard company an authoritative look, while the private security lines keep the distinction from public police clear. White accents keep the smaller wording legible.
Companies set their name in the top panel, put a site or division mark in the star's center, or customize the star down to six points to match the badge they issue. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Private security star patch questions
Can the star match the badge our officers carry?
Yes. Send a photo of the badge and we match the point count and proportions on your proof at no art charge.
Can we put initials or a logo inside the star?
Yes. A small monogram or logo fits at the center of the star at shoulder size; the proof shows it placed.
Will this look too much like a police patch?
Not with your company name and the private security lines stitched clearly, which this layout features. We never reproduce government agency insignia.
Can we order iron-on versions for polos?
Yes. Iron-on works well on polos and event shirts; uniform shirts that go through industrial laundering should stay sew-on.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle the star, pin notes on the lettering and switch colorways. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
Covering more than one contract?
A star shield is the everyday workhorse of private security. The security officer designs beyond the seven-point star shield outfit corporate, campus and event posts. For proposal-stage costs, the patch pricing breakdown for a seven-point security shield at any tier belongs in the bid file.
