A former hub for hatmaking, and now the subject of one of the North West’s largest renovation projects at an estimated £1 billion, Stockport’s transforming image demands an equally revolutionary security solution. That’s where ProFM Group come to the fore, blending expert-led solutions delivered by local, Stockport-based operatives with comprehensive oversight from our National Operations Centre (NOC). It’s a methodology that sees us leverage Stockport’s extensive road network, including Manchester’s M60 Ring Road, the A6 to Hazel Grove, the A5102 down Bramhall Lane, and Edgeley Road past Alexandra Park, to ensure complete coverage.
That’s the crux of the approach we take to securing Stockport, and it allows us to combine national expertise with officers who truly care about the area they secure. So whether you’re a construction project at Weir Mill or Stopford Park, a retailer on Merseyway or the more independent-led Broadstone Mill, or a powerhouse on the Bredbury Industrial Estate, ProFM Group offer expert, tailor-made solutions.
Our unique approach to security for the Stockport area ensures the solutions we provide are as bespoke as possible, with locally-based, SIA-licensed security professionals on hand to provide comprehensive security. That not only means they’re available whenever you need them, but that they’re already familiar with the issues that the town faces, and care about making a difference to this historic area of Greater Manchester.
That network of local operatives is fully overseen and expertly coordinated by our National Operations Centre (NOC), and gives us the capacity to target some of Stockport’s most at-risk spots and commercial heavy-hitters. That includes specialist teams ready to deploy across emerging corporate areas like the Stockport Exchange and MIC, as well as more hands-on approaches for logistics and heavy industry at places like Aurora Stockport, Heaton Mersey and Bredbury Industrial Estate just off the M60.
Affordability is a crucial aspect of any security solution, whether that’s in terms of your current budget or existing concerns around liability and criminality. That’s why we’ve designed our key holding, alarm response and lock and unlock packages to be as cost-effective as possible, while still never compromising on quality or availability, with fully SIA-licensed responses and comprehensive 24/7 availability.
For Stockport specifically, we’d recommend it for many of the smaller start-ups and budding businesses that have sprung up in places like the Merseyway Innovation Centre (MIC) and The Underbanks, as well as those with an eye towards the future that are looking to get a foothold with a professional security provider, such as Stockport 8 or the Cheadle Eco Business Park.
While it’s so often grouped with its much larger neighbour in Manchester, it’s fair to say that Stockport itself is a sizeable area. ProFM Group’s mobile patrols offer the ideal remedy to those more out-of-the-way locations in the town, combining the local knowledge of locally-based officers with a central coordination “hub” in our National Operations Centre (NOC). It means we’re able to not only deploy along the major town centre routes (the north-to-south A6, or the multiple M60 junctions that serve Stockport), but utilise more specific knowledge for effective routing, like Mercian Way through Edgeley, Hall Street and the A626 to Offerton Green and Marple, and Bird Hall Lane that heads into Cheadle Hulme.
All of that contributes towards our leading average response time of just 30 minutes, with an officer available and on site to address any issues whenever and wherever you need them.
An ideal accompaniment to manned security solutions, or an excellent standalone solution, ProFM Group have consistently been at the bleeding edge of security technologies. We deliver the very latest innovation for surveillance and monitoring in the Stockport area, with AI-assisted tech and early-warning temporary tech (like our innovative VPOD) forming a backbone of our services, and our NSI-Gold accreditation offering concrete proof of our leading approach to engineering, installation and consistent monitoring.
Of course, while our cutting-edge approach to tech means we’re able to tailor our solutions to any kind of property, we’d recommend them most for some of Stockport’s most commercially-active areas, especially in light of future developments and the existing £1 billion investment. That could be for a corporate highflier on The Stockport Exchange, a logistics leader on Bredbury or the Vauxhall Trading Estate, or retail hotspots like the Market Hall or the Peel Centre.
Perhaps most known for its Plaza, which hosts dozens of live shows and events every year, Stockport’s event scene is much more than it might appear on the surface. The Symphony Orchestra offers a classical backdrop to more contemporary artists in Cheadle Hulme’s Hits on the Pitch, while the Community Orchard provides a more local flavour. What all of those share, though, is the need for effective security, and with ProFM Group, we deliver exactly that.
We offer a comprehensive, purpose-built approach to event security in Stockport, providing SIA-licensed officers and operational teams for an all-encompassing approach to protecting your celebration, including ticketing and guest entrance management, visitor flow and bottleneck prevention, and a smooth and fuss-free exit as events finish.
Learn how we’ve already provided expert protection for Stockport businesses, and how we can deliver similar excellence for you.

Still got a Question?All of ProFM Group’s security guards are fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA), where they’ll develop a comprehensive skillset, including basic first aid techniques, counter-terrorism guidance, and conflict management skills. As part of our own checks, they’ll also have passed our strict vetting and screening process in line with BS7858, and have a Basic DBS certificate as part of those checks.
Beyond that, ProFM’s security officers also have access to a comprehensive online library of courses, with mandatory training sessions and refresher courses issued every month to ensure ongoing excellence.
We can. With hundreds of millions of pounds worth of investment and construction happening across the Stockport area every day, a short-notice security solution is essential, and ProFM Group are more than capable of delivering, with same-day manned coverage available in the majority of circumstances. We would, however, always advise that you plan your security well in advance to avoid any disappointments.
Yes. Although a canine handler is an incredibly effective deterrent, we would only advise deploying this in areas where there’s a more pronounced risk (Bredbury Industrial Estate, for example, might see increased trespassing and, as a result, liabilities) or that are towards the outskirts of town and infrastructure might be limited.
If you opt for a canine security solution, we provide fully NASDU-accredited security professionals and their canine companions, all of whom are fully licensed by the SIA and have undergone extensive training to keep your site protected and secure.
Our average officer-to-site response time is 30 minutes, with our roster of officers in Stockport offering flexible and robust coverage of the area whenever and wherever you need us. That includes any alarm activations or triggers of your temporary security measures, like VPODs or solar-powered CCTV cameras.
Our primary way of helping reduce criminal activity in Stockport is through our officers, all of whom are available around the clock, and offer one of the most effective, proven deterrents to crime and trespassing. Outside of that, though, we’re also a part of the City of Manchester Security Council, which is an elite collection of some of the city’s most prestigious security companies working in tandem with local police forces to deliver a more community-focused approach to securing the town.
We can. Home to League 1’s Stockport County, Edgeley Park is also a sought-after events space and venue for conferences, meetings and corporate celebrations. We can deliver comprehensive protection for the ground, whether it’s a matchday in the 19,000 capacity pitchside, a convention in The 1883 lounge, or hospitality in The Concourse.
