Expert Security Services In Northumberland

In the modern world, professional security, no matter what capacity you have it in, is proving to be an essential consideration. Crime rates have only been trending upwards, and a physical security presence has proven to be a major deterrent against both opportunistic and organised crime. It’s also a great way to reinforce the commitment you make to staff, visitors and guests.

While this will often depend on the type of site you have and what you need from your security professionals, there’s a core range of duties that you can expect regardless. That includes:

• Protecting key access points, including entrances, reception areas and fire doors
• Patrolling on both a regular and ad-hoc basis
• Keeping a detailed record of all visitors, deliveries and departures
• Utilising any on-site security measures, such as CCTV or intruder alarms
• Providing a speedy and appropriate response to any disturbances or conflicts

We can! While it’s always best to plan in advance, emergencies happen, and you need a provider you can rely on. In the majority of cases, we can mobilise our officers on the same day, or the next day if that’s not possible. That’s never at the detriment of professionalism or quality, either.

Yes! We have a state-of-the-art Control Room, which is where your cameras will connect to via a secure connection. From there, your cameras will be watched over 24/7/365 by a trained, SIA-licensed professional, who’s able to react rapidly if a disturbance or issue is detected.

As a guideline, we recommend at least 1 security officer for every 100 to 150 guests you’re expecting. That can change, however, depending on a range of different factors, including whether you plan to serve alcohol, where you’re holding your event, and any specific points of concern or high-value areas (like equipment storage).

As the unmatched leader in security in the North East and throughout the UK, our catalogue is as extensive as you’d expect. As part of that, we’re able to provide:

• Both mobile and static security professionals
• High-tech CCTV and surveillance options, all with round-the-clock monitoring
• Specialist security measures, including canine handlers and close protection
• Access controls, intruder alarms and other security tech
• Event security, all staffed by SIA-licensed officers

Every security professional we provide is fully licensed by the Security Industry Authority. As an additional layer of reassurance, we conduct a 5-year screening and vetting process for all the officers we employ, as well as offering site-specific training and guidance using our online training platform.

We can’t give an estimated timeframe without knowing the specifics of your site, but rest assured that we’ll develop a strategy and a completion schedule that works for you. For mobile solutions (usually built for construction sites or vacant properties), we’ll be able to set those up much quicker than a more static or permanent solution.

For the vast majority of events, the answer is yes. While we currently don’t provide security for house parties or bars, clubs and pubs, we can adapt to a huge range of celebrations. That includes:

• Weddings and other celebrations
• Hospitality and leisure venues
• Festivals and outdoor events
• Shows, concerts and live performances
• Sports matches and other events

Due to the bespoke nature of the security we provide, we aren’t in a position to provide a price guide without knowing more about the site or event you need us to secure. Get in touch today to discuss your specifics, and to receive a free, no-obligation quote.
