Facilities Management Trusted By
One of the UK’s youngest cities and a central hub for the whole of Lancashire, Preston’s risk profile is one that’s evolved significantly over the last few decades. In response to that changing landscape, we mobilise our entire operational network, deploying Preston-based security professionals for on-the-ground support coordinated by our National Operations Centre (NOC) in Chorley. Our nearby HQ means we’ve been able to capitalise on our own local knowledge to deliver rapid support using the M6 and the A6 that runs right through the city centre into Fulwood and Broughton, as well as more local routes like the A583 towards Kirkham, and the Longton Bypass towards Southport.
It all translates to a solution that’s built on local operatives who care about the area, and one of the UK’s best operational structures for expert service delivery, whether you’re a commercial business along the Preston Docks or a city-centre hospitality venue along Fishergate or Friargate.
Our approach to professional security in Preston combines our expert National Operations Centre (NOC) with an extensive network of locally-based security operatives to ensure that we’re able to address the key pressure areas for Preston. We’re able to deliver industry experts for security at key manufacturing and logistics premises like Red Scar and Millennium City, major aerospace players in BAE at Samlesbury, and city-centre hospitality along the one-ways on Fishergate and Market Place.
It’s not limited to the more popular PR postcodes, either. We’re able to deliver that same level of expertise and local knowledge, whether you’re as far up as Garstang, closer to the coast at Tarleton, or on the fringes of the city area towards Beacon Fell and the Forest of Bowland.
Cost is so often a key factor in choosing the right security solutions, but ProFM Group believe that shouldn’t impact quality. With our key holding and alarm response packages, we’re on hand 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to deliver the solutions you’re looking for. Our teams of local, Preston-based operatives ensure that we’re able to respond whenever and wherever you need us, from Leyland to Longridge.
Our flexible solutions mean that we’re able to tailor our approach to suit your business, your operating hours, and your risk profile, whether that’s a small business on Winckley Square or Caxton Road at Fulwood, or a more established industrial titan on the Warton Enterprise Zone or Preston Business Park bordering the M6.
With the wider Preston area encompassing such a range of properties and challenges, we’re thrilled to deliver one of the most comprehensive approaches to mobile security across the area. While we’ll naturally make use of key thoroughfares like the A6 that runs right through the city’s heart, and the M6, which offers access to the interchange at Tickled Trout, we pride ourselves on taking the most effective route to providing your property with mobile protection.
Our locally-based officers and Operational teams, coordinated centrally by our National Operations Centre (NOC) in Chorley, deploy swiftly and seamlessly along bypasses past Longton and Bamber Bridge, Edith Rigby Way connecting to the M55, and Dawber’s Lane that links Euxton with Tarleton. That’s all capped off by an average officer-on-site time of just 30 minutes, all delivered by security personnel who appreciate and respect the local area.
Security technology plays a crucial role in ensuring site safety, and ProFM Group’s NSI-Gold accredited engineers and installation packages ensure you’re in the safest possible hands. Overseen and monitored around the clock by our National Operations Centre (NOC), our solutions offer a comprehensive, AI-assisted insight into commercial properties, making them ideal for places like Samlesbury’s AEZ (Aerospace Enterprise Zone), retail hotspots at the Capitol Centre and inner-city Preston, and Cottam’s growing cohort of logistics businesses along the Western Distributor Road.
That’s all delivered as part of a bespoke package that’s designed to give you the peace of mind, coverage and consistent oversight you need to feel safe.
Preston’s event scene is so often centred around the twin parks of Avenham and Moor, with Mela and Easter offering religious and cultural highlights, and Rockprest and the Caribbean Carnival providing a diverse soundtrack. That’s where sourcing the right solution for event security plays a pivotal role, and ProFM Group deliver local, licensed professionals and bespoke event solutions for an unsung hero of the North West’s events calendar.
All of our solutions are designed to deliver a one-stop shop for event protection, encompassing key services like guest flow management, ticketing services, car park management (essential for the narrow routes around Avenham and the built-up residential routes past Moor Park), and controlling exit to ensure the city centre isn’t overwhelmed.

ProFM Group provide security services for us, and from the initial discussion to present, they have excelled in all areas. Excellent communication and a great service provided. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
Not sure if we’re the right option for professional security in the Preston area? We’ve put together a selection of our most-asked questions and answers.
Still got a Question?Alongside our expert security professionals and an average response time of just 30 minutes to all security incidents, we’re also an active member of the Lancashire Partnership Against Crime (LANPAC). This allows us to work closely alongside the Lancashire Constabulary, local organisations and other security companies to ensure that we’re focusing our efforts on what really matters to Prestonians.
Our average officer-on-site time in Preston is 30 minutes, ensuring that we’re able to deliver an appropriate in-person response. With our CCTV and monitoring solutions, we’re also able to issue an immediate audio warning directly from our National Operations Centre (NOC) and mobilise the emergency services when a serious issue is spotted by our trained operatives.
With our Head Office and National Operations Centre (NOC) so close to the city, we’ve taken an active and visible role in securing Preston. From temporary protection for major demolition projects off Avenham Lane, to manned guarding services for pivotal recycling and waste projects towards Grimsargh, we’ve been proud to deliver extensive, professional support across the area.
We do. We know that last-minute requirements can and do spring up, whether that’s in response to criminal activity, newly-emerging risk factors (the new developments around the Preston Markets are a key example of that) or changing budgets, and we’re more than happy to assist, with same-day solutions in the majority of circumstances.
All of our Preston security officers are fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA), and will have passed our strict, 5-year screening and vetting checks before they’re deployed to your premises. They also undergo regular refresher courses, complete basic first aid training as part of their SIA licensing, and receive monthly additional training courses through our online training matrix.
We can. We deliver NASDU-accredited canine handling officers across the city and its outskirts. However, while canine security is an incredibly effective deterrent, we’d only advise investing in that for the most at-risk properties, such as large-scale industrial properties at Red Scar or Walton Summit industrial estates.
