Even unarmed security guards will customarily carry one or two pairs of handcuffs so that they can detain suspects if necessary. A suspect detained with handcuffs will be easier for you to control as you wait for the police to arrive. As a security guard, you should always be thinking about additional means that you can use to subdue suspects, and carrying a few zip ties is a good idea. Keeping some zip ties on your security belt while you're on patrol gives you a different tool for detaining those who may be combative or attempting to flee.
