SIA-Licensed Security Guards & Mobile Patrols in Northampton

As the largest town in the UK by population and one of the South East Midlands’ fastest-growing commercial centres, Northampton businesses need more than off-the-shelf security services.

The Waterside Enterprise Zone alone covers 120 hectares along the River Nene, attracting £320m of private investment alone since it launched. Add the £24m Town Funds regeneration of the Market Square and the £14m Vulcan Works creative hub, and it’s clear the town is in the middle of a major commercial transformation.

Every officer we deploy across the Northampton area is locally based, fully SIA-licensed and vetted to the BS7858 standards. Our National Operations Centre coordinates every deployment in real time, giving us an average response time of 30 minutes across the town. That combination of local expertise and nationally backed central command is what makes the difference when a Northampton business needs a quick response time.

NSI Gold-Accredited CCTV, Access Control & Intruder Alarms in Northampton

All CCTV installation and engineering work we deliver in Northampton is certified to NSI Gold standards, with our access control systems and intruder alarms accredited to the Paxton Gold level. Both are the highest independent quality benchmarks of our industry.

From standalone CCTV to mixed surveillance and manned guarding, every system we design is drawn from your site plans and around the individual risk profile of your business and location. All surveillance is monitored 24/7 by our own team from our command centre, backed by officer deployments when needed.

If your site has no fixed power supply or you just need a temporary solution, our range of solar CCTV towers, VPOD visually verified intruder alarms and ProEyez AI-assisted perimeter detection (which connect to our NOC through a worldwide SIM) are a reliable solution.

So whether we’re designing permanent surveillance and access control for corporate clients around Waterside or retail businesses along Abington Street, or deploying mobile security patrols for logistics businesses at Brackmills, you’re guaranteed a security solution designed to meet your specific needs.

Licensed Event Security in Northampton

Northampton’s event calendar is more active than its town status might suggest, with The Royal & Derngate complex on Guildhall Road drawing more than 330,000 attendees a year, the Northampton Music Festival and the regenerated Market Square becoming a purpose-built outdoor events space.

And with Martyn’s Law now in effect and due to become mandatory for qualifying venues by 2027, you need a proactive security solution that hits the new higher standards.

At ProFM Group we’ve always worked to these standards, deploying only current SIA licensed officers to events with ongoing training and a supervisory team that’s comprehensively trained in everything from crowd behaviour management and conflict de-escalation to WAVE.

Everything we design and deliver is tailored to your event requirements, and we take into account everything from the type of venue and your expected attendance to crowd flow and alcohol serving areas.

Our officers cover your entire event timeframe, carrying out initial risk assessments and security planning through verifying tickets at the door, bag checks, crowd management and car park control.

Yes, our network of local Northampton officers can often mobilise on the same day to cover urgent gaps in cover, urgent security requirements or following an incident. If you need a more structured handover, then we’ll provide a fully detailed plan in advance to ensure there are no gaps in your existing security coverage.

Our average officer-on-site time is just 30 minutes across the entire Northampton area. This is possible because of our local officers who have expert knowledge of the areas they cover, along with the real-time coordination of our NOC. For all technology deployments, we can also issue immediate audio warnings on site, and contact emergency services if needed.
