Perhaps one of the sector’s biggest names, our work with SIKA/Everbuild resonates for multiple reasons. Not only does it showcase our commitment to exceptional service for one of the industry’s most renowned providers, but it’s also a testament to how we’ve stayed at the forefront of the intersection between security and construction.
Perhaps one of the most sought-after solutions for security on a construction site, our security personnel are second to none. Expertly trained and experienced in handling the issues that come with the construction territory, we deliver SIA-licensed security operatives who can tackle even the most challenging projects. It’s part of the ProFM difference.
Building is rarely a self-contained affair. From new build estates to integral services like schools and hospitals, we’re well aware of how large-scale and expansive construction can be. That’s where our mobile patrolling officers come to the fore, offering a more proactive approach to securing your site and ensuring your perimeter stays disruption- and intrusion-free.
A revelation in how we approach sites without power or connectivity, the VPOD is a visually verified intruder alarm that functions entirely on solar power (with a 3-week battery backup for those cloudy days). It’s completely autonomous with a simple, one-person set-up, and offers uninterrupted connectivity to our National Operations Centre through an integrated, worldwide 2G SIM card.
Ideal for longer-term projects or those that demand constant surveillance, our mobile CCTV towers for construction sites are the ideal blend of both rapid deployment and expert build quality. Offering a constant overview of key points across your site, all of our cameras connect wirelessly to our 24/7 National Operations Centre, and provide crystal clear imaging and a superb deterrent.
With ProFM Group’s expert construction site alarm response service, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing your site is in safe hands. All of our response officers have extensive and specific training to ensure that your building site security is held to the highest possible level.
They’ll be able to take appropriate and rapid action to any disturbance on your construction site, with an average response time of just 30 minutes. We’re the pioneers of efficient, effective and robust construction site security solutions.
Of course, while security services are essential on construction sites UK-wide, it’s not always in the budget. That’s where our more affordable options come in and offer industry-leading service at a fraction of the cost. These include:
We’ve been providing comprehensive construction security to sites across the UK for more than 25 years. Whether you require security guards to monitor and patrol your site, or you’re seeking a complete CCTV system, our consummate professionals have you covered.
Each of our security officers are SIA licensed and trained to the highest standards. We have also been ranked in the top one percent of ACS Approved Contractors, with all our services being recognised as “industry-leading”.

ProFM are proud to be at the cutting-edge of security innovation, coupling sophisticated technology with advanced detection, AI-assistance and rapid response.
“ProFM is an amazingly caring company. I truly feel like a person rather than a number, and they’re always on call if ever I need anything. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend ProFM!”
“We were thrilled to be offered the chance to partner with Virgin Media as part of their 6 Nations Rugby tournament event at Twickenham. Discover how we delivered an exceptional level of service during one of the most pivotal sporting events in the calendar.”
As one of the UK market leaders in luxury chocolate, Hotel Chocolat have quickly become synonymous with both that signature creamy texture and their high-impact, groundbreaking social initiatives. We’re thrilled to have been their security partner over the last 9 years, offering the bespoke levels of support that a brand like HC demands.
It’s fair to say that, since the Grenfell disaster in 2017, fire safety has taken on an entirely new level of importance. That’s something we’ve built a comprehensive familiarity with, and with our fast-acting and robust mobilisation at Berwick Court in Southwark, we were able to deliver a comprehensive, multi-officer solution at a moment’s notice.
“I would like to express how professional the ProFM staff deployed to our site have been. Many people have tried to access the site, but have always been deterred by the ProFM team. I couldn’t of wished for a better service. Thank you to the team for all your support throughout the project.”
“ProFM’s UK coverage, high degree of flexibility and experienced senior team have resulted in an excellent level of support across our events. Their approach and drive to really understand our events and the type of team they need to deploy at each venue has ensured that our customers and teams truly have a security team that have their safety and security at the forefront of their approach.”
“Security are a critical part of the team, I go home on an evening and am happy and confident that everything is ok. We have a very successful relationship with ProFM and will be working with them for a long time”
“We appreciate the work ProFM Group has done and thank you for your contribution to the successful management of our emergency provision, through which we were able to provide accommodation and support to these often-vulnerable clients.”
“ProFM Group have been awarded the security contract for our new £32M facility here at Newport. When the facility was opened by HRH Prince Charles, there were a number of VIPs on this day, and the ProFM team worked closely with the Royal Security Team to make the day run smoothly.”
A pioneer in specialist products and chemicals for building projects, SIKA’s reputation so often precedes it. It’s that reputation that meant it needed an equally reputable security solution, and ProFM were on hand to deliver exactly that. That’s kick-started a multi-year partnership and personalised solutions.
We know your project, your operations, and your timeline are all unique, and to us, that means your security solution should be too. All of our solutions are purpose-built for your site.
Peace of mind is paramount in construction security, and ProFM can provide expertly trained, experienced field operatives who understand the demands of security on an active site.
Our solutions don’t just end with what we’ve outlined above. We’re also able to provide NASDU-accredited canine handling officers, as well as covert security cameras designed for scaffolding
With all of our security solutions, you’ll have a constant, direct line to our 24-hour National Operations Centre, manned around the clock by SIA-licensed professionals.
Despite being such a pivotal part of the economy, construction isn’t immune to criminality. Your security solutions act as a strong deterrent and push back criminals at the first hurdle.
A swift and decisive response is an essential part of any site security measure. We’ve delivered time and time again on that, with a response time of 30 minutes on average.
Ultimately, what professional construction site security offers is peace of mind. Deadlines and project timelines are incredibly tight, no matter what you’re working on, and our industry-leading security offers that reassurance of a trained, always-available presence. It’s also essential for many modern insurance premiums – a must-have for a project of any size.
Our people are the pride of ProFM, and that’s especially true of our security officers. Every single operative we provide is fully SIA-licensed and accredited, as well as having undergone a thorough 5-year vetting process. That’s all supplemented by our training platform, too, which offers site- and role-specific guidance and courses.
This often depends on what your project is, how long it’s likely to take, as well as a range of different factors. However, as a general rule, we’d advise a blend of physical security (like a mobile or static security presence, or a canine handler on more at-risk sites) and security technology (think mobile CCTV cameras, VPODs and Heras fencing).
This can change based on what kind of site you operate, and any specific requirements you may have (like Weighbridge and Banksman training). What won’t change, though, are the core duties of any security professional, which include monitoring key access points, proactively patrolling the site, and addressing any issues appropriately and effectively.
We can! Whether you’re concerned about trespassers on your scaffolding or disruption to essential civil projects like roadworks, ProFM can help. We know that time is of the essence on sites of this nature, and we’ll work alongside you to mobilise quickly, effectively and with the professionalism you’d expect from the UK’s #1.
While we’d always recommend booking your security in advance, we know that it’s not always your first thought, or that emergencies can and do happen. We’re here to help, and always aim to mobilise as soon as possible, and in time for when you need it. The first step is to enquire, and let us know what you need and when you need it.
Security technology plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and integrity of construction sites across the UK, especially those that are more remote. We’ve built a robust library of different options, which include:
This depends on quite a few different factors, including things out of your control like the size of your site and any existing infrastructure. However, with our mobile CCTV towers (which can operate completely on solar power), we’re able to install them quickly and with minimal impact. More permanent solutions will take longer, but we’re happy to adapt around your schedule.
We’re a nationwide business, meaning that no matter where your site is, we’re able to offer our signature blend of custom-built solutions and unparalleled professionalism. If you’re unsure or you feel you’ve got a particularly challenging location (such as an isolated energy project), speak to one of our in-house security experts today to discuss your requirements in more detail.
All of our solutions are bespoke, designed to match the unique demands that your project brings with it. While this does mean that we’re unable to offer a pricelist or estimate without specifics, it does ensure you’re getting the services you need at a competitive rate.
