About this keyhole shield and swords star design
A keyhole is the plainest possible symbol for what security does: it protects access. Set on a shield over crossed swords inside a star, it turns that idea into a proper insignia. The two-color navy-and-gold build keeps the patch sharp at every size, and the star outline gives it the authority of a badge without imitating any police design.
Customize it: your company name on the top line, Access Control or Site Operations in place of the operations line, your logo on the shield, or silver in place of gold. 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.

Security officer star patch questions
Can our logo replace the keyhole?
Yes. Your logo redraws onto the shield at no art charge, with the swords and star kept as shown.
Can the gold be swapped for silver?
Yes. Navy and silver, black and gold, or subdued gray builds all stitch the same way; preview them in the markup tool.
Does a star shape work with a merrowed border?
Yes, when the points are broad as they are here. If you want sharper points, we finish the edge with a hot-cut border.
Can the operations line be changed?
Yes. Both lettering lines restitch to your wording — company name and division — and the 4-hour mockup shows the exact text.
How do I mark up changes to the keyhole star?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle the keyhole or the swords, pin notes on either lettering line and switch colorways. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote.
