Services
Manned Guarding
Our manned guarding service provides uniformed officers to secure premises, deter threats, and monitor access points. Officers are SIA-licensed, fully insured, and trained in conflict resolution and emergency response. Clients benefit from enhanced site security and immediate incident management.
Security Dog Handling
Trained security dog handlers and their canine partners offer rapid threat detection and perimeter patrols. Dogs are disciplined to respond to intrusions, acting as a visible deterrent. This service is ideal for high-risk sites requiring enhanced security presence and swift intervention.
Mobile Patrols
Unannounced mobile patrols ensure premises remain secure through random checks on doors, alarms, and unauthorised access. Uniformed officers conduct foot patrols, providing a visible security presence and immediate reporting of vulnerabilities to our 24/7 control centre.
Keyholding & Alarm Response
We respond to triggered alarms within minutes, verifying incidents and liaising with emergency services if required. This 24/7 service includes keyholding for secure access, ensuring rapid resolution of security breaches or system faults.
Construction Site CCTV
Temporary CCTV installations protect vacant or active construction sites using high-definition cameras and real-time monitoring. Systems are installed by certified engineers to deter theft, vandalism, and unauthorised entry, with footage accessible to clients remotely.
