Security Guarding
Professional security personnel deployed at client premises to provide visible deterrence and active monitoring. Our guards undergo rigorous training and site-specific instruction to ensure they understand your security protocols. We match personnel to roles based on experience and qualifications, maintaining high standards of professionalism and situational awareness.
Mobile Patrols
Scheduled visits to properties by trained officers using GPS-tracked GuardTools system for audit trails. Patrols check for forced entry, fire hazards, and property integrity while providing detailed reporting. Ideal for vacant properties, schools, and commercial buildings requiring regular security presence without permanent guards.
Keyholding Services
Secure storage and management of property keys with 24/7 alarm response capabilities. Keys stored in tamper-evident containers with full audit trails and encrypted digital access records. Our SIA-certified officers respond promptly to alarms, following pre-agreed risk assessments and site instructions for efficient resolution.
Lone Worker Solutions
Emergency response service for lone workers with average response times of 20-30 minutes across Sussex. Our control room coordinates with call centers to dispatch trained officers for medical emergencies or security threats. Includes escorted access services for staff entering empty premises after hours.
Vacant Property Inspections
Regular security assessments for empty properties to meet insurance requirements. Using PDA technology for meter readings, damage documentation, and photographic evidence. Our inspections help prevent vandalism and maintain property security through proactive monitoring and detailed reporting.
