What is gatehouse security?

Gatehouse security in Hackney Downs controls every vehicle and person entering your site — logging, screening and directing traffic from a manned gate.

As part of our wider security guarding in Hackney Downs, this service is delivered by officers who are trained, licensed and briefed specifically to your premises. Security guarding puts a trained, SIA-licensed officer physically on your site to deter, detect and respond. Guards control access, monitor CCTV, patrol the premises, log incidents and act as a visible presence that stops trouble before it starts.
