Why?

Ethics come first! If you are a security guard in charge of keeping control of access to an area that only authorized people can enter, so be it! Be ethical! No one, including your friends or over-friendly people, is allowed in unless they've got permission! When you get caught up in such situations: ➜ Explain calmly why the person is not allowed; ➜ Explain security procedures that are in place; ➜ Ask for identification and explain the importance of it; ➜ Explain where the person can get permission to access that area (if possible); Be friendly and patient. Explaining procedures, even when not asked, might help prevent unnecessary behavior from some customers.
