What is gatehouse security?

Gatehouse security in St James's controls every vehicle and person entering your site — logging, screening and directing traffic from a manned gate.

In St James's, our gatehouse security sits within a complete security guarding offering, so cover can scale up or down as your needs change. 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.

Why St James's businesses need gatehouse security

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

What our gatehouse security in St James's includes

  • Vehicle and pedestrian control
  • Delivery and contractor logging
  • Barrier and ANPR operation
  • Traffic management
  • Site access records
