A family business that's secured Orange County since 1984.
For more than 40 years, the Yost family has designed, installed and serviced commercial security across Orange County — building relationships that outlast the hardware.
Founded in 1984. Still family-run.
Action 1st Loss Prevention, Inc. has protected Orange County businesses since 1984. What started as a family commitment to doing security work the right way became a full-stack commercial integrator — locksmith, access control, video surveillance and door hardware, all under one roof.
Russell Yost and the Yost family still run the business the way it began: pick up the phone, walk the building, recommend what the customer actually needs, and stand behind the work. Most of our new clients come from referrals by existing ones — which, after four decades, is the only scorecard that matters.
Being both a licensed commercial locksmith and an access-control integrator is rare, and it's our advantage. When a key and a credential are both part of the problem, our customers get one company that solves the whole opening.
Three things, every job.
You reach a real person, and we move fast — same-day where we can.
We design around your building and workflow, not a one-size package.
We're not done until the system works the way you expected.
The best way to know us is to have us walk your building.
