What is temporary security?

Temporary security in Abbey Wood — flexible short-term protection for empty buildings, projects, events and interim needs.

As part of our wider vacant property security in Abbey Wood, this service is delivered by officers who are trained, licensed and briefed specifically to your premises. 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 Abbey Wood site.

The technology behind our cover

Our Abbey Wood 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.

What a Abbey Wood assignment looks like

How much does temporary security cost in Abbey Wood?
