What is squatter prevention?

Squatter prevention in Woolwich Arsenal — proactive guarding, patrols, alarms and board-up that keep squatters out of your empty property.

In Woolwich Arsenal, our squatter prevention sits within a complete vacant property security offering, so cover can scale up or down as your needs change. 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.

SIA-licensed officers

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 Woolwich Arsenal site.

Professional, presentable officers

Whether uniformed and highly visible or low-key and discreet, our Woolwich Arsenal officers look and act the part — because how security carries itself changes how people behave around it.

The technology behind our cover

Our Woolwich Arsenal teams use the right tools for the job: real-time sign-in and check-calls, GPS patrol logging, body-worn video where appropriate, and integration with any CCTV or alarms you already have.
