How We Provide Premier Security In Nottingham

A home to legends both fictional (in folklore with Robin Hood) and tangible (both literary and sporting in the city’s heritage), security in Nottingham takes on an additional layer of importance when you consider the city’s place on UNESCO’s rankings. ProFM Group are proud to support that, combining an extensive roster of local, Nottingham-based licensed security officers with an advanced National Operations Centre (NOC) to ensure comprehensive, 24/7/365 coverage. That’s the central pillar of the service we deliver – local expertise, coupled with nationwide capacity for excellence.

It also ensures that we’re able to deploy rapidly, and with the expertise we need to provide a city-wide security solution. In conjunction with our NOC, our officers make proactive and intelligent usage of the city’s warren of roads, including major stretches of the M1 that run parallel to the city area, the A60 that passes through the city’s heart, the A610 through Nuthall, and the A453 past Clifton. All of that creates a package that we’re truly proud to put the ProFM name to.

SIA Licensed Security Guards in Nottingham

While effective licensing and training offer one aspect of the security process, it’s only one facet of creating an impactful and intelligent security package. We’re firm believers that local officers are integral to creating a security solution that lasts, and ProFM Group deliver exactly that – SIA-licensed, Nottingham-based security professionals overseen and coordinated centrally by our National Operations Centre (NOC), 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

We’ve gone a step beyond that, too. Our teams of officers are on hand to support with specialist solutions for some of Nottingham’s more popular sectors, including specialist teams for retail security at places like the Victoria Centre and Bridlesmith Gate, robust teams for logistics security in areas such as Power Park and the East Midlands Gateway towards the airport, and a refined approach to security in corporate hotspots like Nottingham Science Park, the Trent Uni campus, and innovators along Standard Hill and Chapel Bar.

Nottingham CCTV, Access Control & Intruder Alarms

As the threat landscape of one of England’s biggest and most vibrant cities evolves, we’ve been quick to recognise that it requires an equally transformed security solution. That’s precisely what we deliver for Nottingham – exceptional, expert-led installation and monitoring packages, watched over 24/7 by our National Operations Centre (NOC), and underpinned by our Gold-level accreditation from the National Security Inspectorate (NSI). We’re equally robust in our temporary solutions, too, including the cutting-edge VPOD and solar-powered CCTV towers.

That diversity means we’re uniquely positioned to provide security technologies for some of Nottingham’s most pivotal areas. From portable yet powerful options designed for construction projects (like Broadmarsh, or the new student apartments being built on Norton Street), to city-centre corporate powerhouses along the aptly-named Maid Marian Way and on Beeston Business Park, ProFM Group have you covered.

Rapid-Response Security Patrols Across Nottingham

Designed to accommodate those more isolated properties, as well as large-scale premises, we’re committed to delivering an expert approach to mobile patrol security. It’s an area we dedicate substantial resources to, with our teams of locally-based security officers on hand around the clock to commit to our average response time of just 30 minutes. That locality means they’re well aware of what makes Nottingham tick, and, in conjunction with our centralised coordination through ProFM’s National Operations Centre (NOC), we ensure we’re always available.

That comprehensive oversight also means our officers can take advantage of real-time traffic and routing data to get to your sites swiftly and effectively. While areas like Mansfield Road, the Basford Crossing, and the junction at Vernon Road, Western Boulevard and Radford Road are notorious for congestion, we’re able to circumnavigate those by taking less-popular routes. That includes those along Manver Street behind the Motorpoint, Triumph Road through the UoN’s Jubilee Campus, and The Wells Road through St. Ann’s and into Alexandra Park.

Nottingham Keyholding & Alarm Response

It’s no secret that Nottingham is one of the UK’s most popular cities for students and young professionals. That can often mean that security isn’t a priority, or that there simply isn’t the budget for it, especially when it comes to student accommodation. That’s where our key holding and alarm response solutions excel, offering cost-effective packages that are designed to provide both round-the-clock coverage and an SIA-licensed response whenever and wherever you need it in the city. 

While we’ve pinpointed its applications for student accommodation security, it’s equally true that it’s a solution that’s got so many use cases. From smaller start-ups along the fringes of Lace Market, to independent retailers that rub shoulders with the giants on Clumber Street and Long Row, right through to more expansive industrial sites on New Stanton and PowerPark over at Lenton Lane, we tailor our more budget-conscious solutions to provide the coverage you need.

Reliable Nottingham Event Security Services

One of the most integral parts of keeping Nottingham safe is protecting its packed calendar of events. From the internationally-renowned Splendour Festival at Wollaton Hall, to events that hark back to the city’s heritage in the Goose Fair and Robin Hood Half Marathon, there’s a clear demand for an expert security solution. ProFM Group are the ideal solution for that, delivering fully SIA-licensed security officers no matter what you have planned. 

That additional training ensures they’re better equipped and more competent in keeping your event safe, whether that’s in ticketing services for exclusive events at the Racecourse (Ladies Day, for instance), guest guidance and flow management, and smooth movement throughout your event for an incident-free celebration. Plus, with dedicated teams on hand to ensure that every aspect of your big day is covered, you’re always covered with ProFM.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not found the answer you’re looking for? We’ve compiled a few of our most-asked questions and answers.

Still got a Question?

We can. An essential consideration for Notts’ emerging fintech, banking, and high-end corporate areas (like those off Maid Marian Way, Middle Hill, and Upper and Lower Parliament Street), our corporate security professionals offer a hybrid approach to protection, coupling exceptional customer service and business-smart attire with full SIA licensing and extensive training. 

It’s also ideal for the evolving logistics landscape as more facilities seek to couple that industrial side with a customer-facing presence.

All of our officers, whether that’s for event security, overnight protection, or a more mobile approach, are fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA) and are screened and vetted in line with the notoriously strict BS7858 standards. Alongside that, they’ll also have emergency first aid expertise and training in key skills like conflict management.

We take it a step further than the baseline, though. Every ProFM security officer has multiple mandatory training courses every month, all tailored to the specific site and duties they’ll complete. That’s alongside regular oversight from our Operational leaders, all of whom have extensive frontline experience themselves.

We do. While we’d always advise planning in advance to avoid unnecessary stress, we know that last-minute requirements often crop up when you least expect them. We’re able to accommodate seamlessly, delivering a manned security guarding solution on the same day in the majority of circumstances. Whether it’s coverage in an alarm outage, protection after a trespassing incident, or changing requirements in visitor access (a VIP, for example), ProFM Group are a trusted partner.

For any incident or alarm activation, our office-to-site time is just 30 minutes on average. That means that, whenever an alarm is triggered or a trespasser is detected on your site, we’re able to scramble a licensed security professional to investigate. That’s all built on the firm foundations of our extensive network of locally-based security guards and officers, all of whom are within reach of your site in the Nottingham area.

Yes, they are. One of the most effective and well-recognised security deterrents, we’re able to provide officers qualified to Level 2 under the National Association of Security Dog Users (NASDU) and fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA). We’d advise investing in this more advanced measure if you’ve had issues with persistent trespassing (Island Quarter’s construction phase is at particular risk here) or you’re along the fringes of the city towards places like Ilkeston or Burton Joyce.

Of course. From Notts’ own Goose Fair that’s now well into its 700th year in the city, to the more modern Splendour Festival that sees internationally renowned musicians and comedians descend on Wollaton, right down to the more niche celebrations at the iconic Sherwood Forest, ProFM Group could be a trusted partner. With SIA-licensed officers as standards, scalable solutions that evolve as your event grows, and bespoke risk assessments and security analysis for those large-scale gatherings, we’re a one-stop shop for event protection.

ProFM security risks and crime statistics in Nottingham

A View On Nottingham’s Key Risks

  • Robbery Soars By 33% Nottingham’s biggest rise, a sharp spike in both armed and aggravated robbery, is seriously concerning for the city’s growing commercial footprint
  • Commercial Burglary Up By 15% Although residential burglary saw an opposite trend, this statistic points towards an increased criminal focus on theft from commercial and corporate premises.
  • An Island In Peril With over £1 billion already invested in Nottingham’s “city within a city”, the Island Quarter’s ongoing build is a major target for trespassers and thieves.
