11 servicesSecurity Guarding in Cambridge
Uniformed, SIA-licensed security officers who protect your people, premises and stock — on reception, on patrol, at the gate or on the shop floor. Cover from a single shift to permanent 24/7 manning, arranged fast. 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.
Mobile Security & Patrols in Cambridge
A cost-effective alternative to a static guard: marked patrol vehicles check your site at agreed or random times, respond to alarms, and hold your keys so you never attend an incident alone at 3am. Mobile security uses SIA-licensed officers in marked vehicles to patrol your premises, respond to alarm activations and carry out lock/unlock duties. It gives you a professional security presence without the cost of a full-time static guard.
Event Security & Door Supervision in Cambridge
From a single door supervisor on a bar to a full crowd-management plan for a festival, our SIA-licensed event teams keep guests safe, manage entry and handle incidents calmly and lawfully. Event security covers everything from SIA door supervision on licensed premises to stewarding, crowd management, bag searches and VIP protection at events of any size. Teams are briefed to your venue, licence conditions and crowd profile.
Close Protection & Bodyguards in Cambridge
SIA-licensed close protection officers who keep individuals, families and executives safe — through advance planning, secure movement and a calm, low-profile presence that fits your life, not disrupts it. Close protection (CP) is the professional protection of a person from harm, harassment or intrusion. It combines advance reconnaissance, secure travel, residential security and a trained CP officer or team who manage risk discreetly.
CCTV & Remote Monitoring in Cambridge
Professionally installed and monitored CCTV that watches your site when no one else can — from a single commercial system to rapid-deploy towers on a construction site, with operators ready to respond to what they see. CCTV security covers the design, installation and monitoring of camera systems. Remote monitoring adds trained operators who watch live footage, challenge intruders over audio and dispatch a response — turning cameras from a record into a real-time deterrent.
Vacant & Empty Property Security in Cambridge
Empty buildings attract squatters, metal theft, vandalism and fly-tipping — and your insurance often depends on active protection. We secure vacant property with guards, patrols, CCTV, alarms and board-up, keeping it safe and insurable. Vacant property security protects buildings that are empty between tenants, sales, development or probate. It combines physical measures (guarding, patrols, board-up) with electronic ones (CCTV, alarms) and regular documented inspections.
Construction Site Security in Cambridge
Construction sites lose millions to plant theft, metal theft, vandalism and trespass. We protect them with SIA-licensed guards, gatehouse control, rapid-deploy CCTV towers, alarms and patrols — keeping your programme and your plant safe. 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.
