SIA-Licensed Security Guards & Mobile Patrols in Brighton

Brighton & Hove’s 2024-2027 Economic Plan identifies it as having some of the best conditions for investment of anywhere outside London. With over 15,000 active businesses across the city, a busy seafront tourism economy, and major regeneration work on Madeira Terrace and the King Alfred Leisure Centre site under way, the demand for professional security services in Brighton spans commercial offices, retail, construction, and late-night venues in equal measure.

Our SIA-licensed security guards cover Brighton city centre, Churchill Square, the North Laine district, Brighton Marina, and the Hove Business Park area, deploying officers who are already based in and around the city. For clients who need coverage across multiple Brighton premises, our mobile patrol services provide a verified, timed response at each site around the clock. All security staff hold a current SIA licence and are vetted to BS7858 before being placed on any contract.

Every patrol is logged and coordinated through our NOC, which operates 24/7/365 and maintains a 30-minute average response time to security incidents across Brighton, Hove, and the wider East Sussex area.

NSI Gold-Accredited CCTV & Technology-Led Security in Brighton

Our CCTV installations in Brighton are certified to NSI Gold standards, covering permanent systems for commercial and hospitality premises and temporary deployments for construction sites, seafront events, and festivals. CCTV cameras work as a standalone deterrent and as a technology layer alongside manned security guards, with camera feeds monitored 24/7 through our NOC. Where an alarm is triggered, a fully licensed officer responds directly.

Our access control installations are Paxton Gold-accredited, covering door entry, visitor management, and intruder alarms for commercial properties across Brighton and Hove. For short-term requirements – like construction sites along the seafront regeneration corridor and temporary event infrastructure – we deploy a range of electronic security solutions like solar CCTV towers, VPOD, and ProEyez AI-assisted perimeter detection, which are operational within hours and require no mains connection.

Licensed Event Security in Brighton

The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 is now on the statute books, with its 2027 rollout bringing mandatory compliance requirements for qualifying venues across the UK. ProFM already operates to this standard across all event security deployments, covering the risk assessment, planning, and operational requirements that Martyn’s Law will formalise.

Brighton’s year-round events calendar – from major arena concerts to outdoor festivals and political party conferences at The Brighton Centre – creates consistent demand for experienced event security at every scale.

Our event security teams cover the full operational scope at venues of this scale: risk assessment, access control systems, ticketing checks, crowd management, bag screening, car park control, and WAVE (Welfare and Vulnerability Engagement)-trained officers for incidents involving vulnerable attendees.

If your risk profile changes on the day, we can adapt our services quickly, without relying on untrained agency fill-ins.
