Why Would I Invest In Expert Security?

Security has long proven to be one of the most effective deterrents to criminal activity, especially with a more proactive and professional presence. Not only does it help keep those issues at bay, it’s also concrete evidence to your visitors, staff and passers-by that you take security seriously, and that you’re prioritising keeping people and your community safe.

What Kinds Of Security Can ProFM Provide?

As the UK’s official leader in security solutions, we’ve built up a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to suit sites across the country. That includes: Security personnel, both mobile patrolling officers and static guarding Bespoke CCTV installations, monitoring and surveillance packages SIA-licensed event security solutions Canine handlers, close protection officers and other specialist solutions Intruder alarms, access control and cutting-edge security tech

What Duties Will My Security Officers Have?

That’s dependent on your site, as you might expect. But while security personnel at a hotel will have a different role from those who secure a warehouse, there is a core suite of duties you can expect no matter what. Those include: Consistent monitoring of entry points and access areas Proactive use of CCTV cameras and on-site tech Maintaining a log of visitors, guests and deliveries Conducting routine or ad-hoc patrols as required Managing any on-site conflicts and de-escalating those where possible

How Qualified Are ProFM Group’s Security Personnel?

We only supply Security Industry Authority (SIA) licensed operatives for all of the sites and events we secure. It’s part of the commitment we make to professionalism, alongside the stringent 5-year vetting and screening process we put into place for everyone we bring on board, and our extensive online training platform.

Can ProFM Offer Emergency Security Cover?

We can! While it’s always better to plan your security measures in advance, we know it’s not always possible to do that. With our short-notice capabilities, we can mobilise at your site on the same or the next day in most circumstances, and always with that signature ProFM quality.

Will Someone Monitor My CCTV?

All of the CCTV cameras we install are monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, in our state-of-the-art National Operations Centre. That’s manned by SIA-licensed professionals at all times, who can mobilise a response as soon as an issue is detected on your site, whether that’s an audio warning, a mobile patrol, or – in the worst case scenario – the emergency services.

Are ProFM Group Able To Secure My Event?

For the majority of cases, we can. While we don’t currently offer security for pubs, clubs, bars or house parties, we’ve got experience and expertise in securing everything else. That includes: Hospitality and leisure celebrations Weddings and other special occasions Corporate and charity events Festivals and other outdoor events Shows and concerts Sporting events and matches

Q: How Many Officers Does My Event Need?

We tend to recommend at least 1 security officer per 100 – 150 guests that you’re expecting. However, that recommendation does change based on several key factors, which include the size and scope of your event, where you’re planning to hold it, and whether alcohol will be served.

With an exceptional reputation for delivering bespoke security solutions and matching experts in their field with sites across the country, ProFM Group are the clear choice. From our award-nominated security officers to the cutting edge of CCTV and monitoring technology, you can count on ProFM to provide the absolute best in security measures.

North East Mobile Security Patrols and Alarm Response Services

Proactive Mobile Security Patrolling

While a static security presence is essential for premises like office blocks and hotels, it’s not the right fit for every site. For larger premises (think construction sites or industrial complexes), we’d recommend mobile officers who’ll conduct routine patrols of your whole site, ensuring the full integrity of your perimeter and responding rapidly to any disturbance.

Our lock and unlock service is built to take the onus off you and your staff. We’ll deploy a trained security professional to open your site when you need it and lock it down at the end of your day.

It’s difficult to give a timeframe without knowing more about your site and its surveillance requirements. While mobile options (like our CCTV towers) are set up and connected in a day or two, larger installations or more complex projects can naturally take longer. We’ll always work with you to create a schedule that works and that minimally impacts your day-to-day.
