What is building site security?

Building site security in Old Street — scalable protection for sites from a single plot to major developments.

In Old Street, our building site security sits within a complete construction security offering, so cover can scale up or down as your needs change. Construction security protects building sites and their plant, materials and workforce. It combines manned guarding and gatehouse access control with electronic measures — CCTV towers, alarms and patrols — scaled to the phase and value of the site.

Why Old Street businesses need building site security

Old Street has its own security picture — the mix of premises, footfall and risk across East London isn't the same as anywhere else. We deploy officers who understand the area and tailor building site security to what your Old Street site actually needs, rather than a generic template.

What our building site security in Old Street includes

  • Scalable cover
  • Guards and CCTV
  • Perimeter protection
  • Access logging
  • Theft deterrence

Who we protect in Old Street

Our Old Street clients range from independent businesses to national organisations. Main contractors, developers, groundworkers and plant-hire firms use construction security to prevent theft and trespass, control site access, meet CDM and insurer requirements, and keep projects on schedule.

Signs you need building site security

  • You've had a break-in, theft or incident at your Old Street premises
  • Your insurer requires a security presence or documented cover
  • Staff or visitors feel unsafe, especially at opening, closing or after dark

How our building site security works in Old Street

Free site assessment

Tell us what you need in Old Street. We assess the premises, risks and hours to agree the right cover — with no obligation.

Written proposal & quote

You get a clear, no-surprises quote and assignment instructions in writing before anything starts.

Vetted officers deployed

SIA-licensed, BS 7858-vetted officers are matched to your site and briefed on your exact requirements.

Managed & reported

A named contact, monitored sign-in and regular reporting keep your Old Street cover running smoothly, with the flexibility to adjust.

SIA-licensed officers

Every officer we send to Old Street holds a valid licence from the Security Industry Authority (SIA), the UK regulator for private security. SIA licensing is a legal requirement for security work — and we never deploy an unlicensed officer, whatever the pressure or timescale.

BS 7858 vetting & screening

Our officers are screened to BS 7858 — the British Standard for vetting security personnel. That means identity, right-to-work, employment history and character are properly checked before anyone sets foot on your Old Street site.

Available 24/7 in Old Street

Security doesn't keep office hours, and neither do we. Cover in Old Street is available day and night, all year round, with someone real answering every call and message.

Rapid & short-notice response

Our Old Street response is built for urgency: a real person answers, we confirm what we can deploy and how quickly, and we get officers moving without the usual delays.

Professional, presentable officers

A professional presence deters trouble before it starts. In Old Street our officers are well-presented, alert and courteous, striking the balance between firm security and a welcoming face for staff and visitors.

Reporting & accountability

You'll always know what's happening on your Old Street site. Shift reports, incident logs and monitored sign-in give you a complete, insurer-ready record of the service.

The technology behind our cover

Good security blends people and technology. Depending on your Old Street site we combine officers with monitored sign-in, GPS-tracked patrols, body-worn cameras and, where useful, CCTV and alarm response — for stronger cover and a clearer evidence trail.

Fully insured & compliant

Full insurance is a baseline, not an extra. Our Old Street cover is backed by public and employer's liability insurance, with documentation available whenever you need it for a tender or contract.
