Mobile Patrol Services
Our mobile patrol units provide cost-effective security coverage across commercial properties, conducting random surveillance, lone worker checks, and void property inspections. Equipped with GPS tracking and digital evidence recording, our vehicles operate 24/7 across 5,000 square miles in the South West. This flexible solution reduces permanent staffing costs while maintaining comprehensive security coverage for businesses of all sizes.
Static Guarding
Professional security officers protect commercial warehouses, government sites, and corporate premises with tailored access control and monitoring systems. Our SIA-licensed personnel manage alarm systems, vehicle searches, and lockdown procedures while maintaining detailed visitor logs. Available for short-term projects or permanent contracts, our guards provide visible deterrence and immediate response capabilities at client locations nationwide.
Key Holding & Alarm Response
We provide rapid response to alarm activations at commercial and residential properties across the South West. Our trained personnel assume responsibility for safety and liability, eliminating middle-of-the-night call-outs for client staff. Services include secure key storage, premises inspections, and documented incident reporting to ensure client properties remain protected during unsociable hours.

Experienced security teams manage events ranging from local gatherings to large-scale operations like the Weymouth Olympics. Our personnel handle access control, crowd management, and emergency response for outdoor festivals, corporate events, and public celebrations along the South Coast. Uniformed officers ensure safety while maintaining event accessibility for authorised attendees.

Our legal division offers process serving, surveillance, and investigative services for insurance claims, family law, and corporate matters.
