PEPPER SPRAY
Aside from the Baton, pepper spray is an equally effective defense gear that can visually impair the attackers for quite sometime before their normal vision is restored. Security personnel must know the basics of handling pepper spray and the laws governing pepper spray’s carrying and usage. At code 4 security training, we have a separate pepper spray training program to help you learn the details of pepper spray, how it works, and the effective methods to use pepper spray to protect yourself and the citizens from the troublemakers. If aimed correctly, pepper spray can deter troublemakers from causing further discomfort and immediately de-escalate the situation.

Our trainers inform you about proper stance, effective deployment, and self-protection while using a paper spray. It is an integral part of pepper-spraying as the range of spray is quite limited.
