Police Scotland recorded 15,152 crimes in Aberdeen last year, and common assault was the single most reported offence in the city. For businesses running warehouses in Altens, retail units on Union Street, or office blocks near the harbour, that’s not a background statistic; it’s the reason a locked door alone isn’t enough.
It’s also why our building security Aberdeen clients lean on visible, physically present officers rather than cameras alone. Our teams are built around exactly this kind of risk: static guards who know the local beat patterns, mobile patrols that cover business parks after the last van leaves, and a REMS reporting system that gives you a timestamped, photographed record of every check, not just a promise that someone “did a walk-round.”
Whether you’re managing a construction site off Wellington Road or a business park unit near Dyce, we build a plan around your site’s actual risk, not a generic template.
Every officer we deploy operates under SIA approval, ISO 9001 and SafeContractor compliance. From Constructionline to NASDU dog unit membership, these are audited standards we work to daily, not website badges.
We hire fully vetted security officers.
Quality management system certified
Our guards follow strict health laws.
From a single reception desk to a multi-acre industrial yard, we scale officer numbers, shift patterns and technology to the site, not the other way round.
A dedicated officer stationed at your building around the clock, watching entrances, deterring intruders and providing a constant point of contact for staff, visitors and delivery drivers throughout the working day.
Our officers control who enters and exits your site, checking credentials and vehicles at the gate, keeping unauthorised visitors out of business parks, construction sites and gated facilities across the city.
Our NASDU-aligned handlers and trained dogs patrol larger sites, deterring intruders and searching for hidden risks, well suited to warehouses, construction sites and industrial estates around Aberdeen’s wider business areas.
Our trained officers patrol and monitor your premises, checking visitor access, responding to incidents and keeping a visible presence that deters trouble before it starts, ideal for retail units and business parks.
We’ve guarded sites across Aberdeen long enough to know which estates see trouble after dark, which units get targeted once they sit empty, and which access points get tested first. That local knowledge shapes every guarding plan before pricing is even discussed.
Our rates are benchmarked against UK government and public sector standards, so you’re paying for genuine local expertise and accountability, not a national name with none of the site-level insight. It’s this combination of proven experience, fair pricing and real Aberdeen knowledge that keeps clients with us long after their first contract ends.
Effective property protection requires a suite of integrated services designed specifically for the unique rhythm of a commercial building. These are the layers our Aberdeen teams deliver daily.
We manage who gets in and out of your building, from ID checks at reception to controlling deliveries and contractors, so unauthorised access never becomes an afterthought for busy Aberdeen offices and warehouses.
Our officers double as the first face visitors see, greeting guests, managing sign-in and keeping reception areas professional and secure, a common request from Aberdeen office blocks and business centres.
When your building empties out after 5pm, we don’t. Officers secure entrances, check floors and respond to alarms overnight, covering the hours when most break-ins and vandalism actually happen across the city.
If something goes wrong, our officers are trained to act fast, secure the scene, log details accurately and liaise with police using proper reference numbers, not guesswork after the fact.
We scope before we deploy. Every new site gets a walk-through, a written risk note and a guarding plan built around your hours, access points and existing alarm setup.
Our team visits the premises, maps entry points, blind spots and existing security measures, then notes anything an opportunist would exploit within the first week.
We set guard numbers, shift patterns and patrol routes against your actual risk profile, not a generic package, so you're not paying for cover you don't need.
Officers are briefed on-site specifics, key contacts and emergency procedures before their first shift, so day one runs the same as month six.
You receive check-in logs, incident reports and photo evidence through REMS, giving facilities managers a clear audit trail without having to chase anyone for updates.
We are chosen for consistency, not noise. The service is designed to be steady, accountable and easy to trust, which matters when the site is active and the pressure is real.
Our accreditations are independently audited every year, not self-declared, which is why councils, the NHS and national retailers trust us with buildings that can’t afford security failures. Every certificate is available for verification on request, before you sign.
Paper patrol sheets get lost or backdated, leaving you no real proof a building was checked. Our REMS guard tracking system removes that doubt, logging every check-in in real time so you see confirmation, not just take our word for it. Missed checkpoints trigger an alert within minutes.
Guard no-shows cost businesses real money and unplanned risk, so we built our operation to avoid them. We’re ranked in the Top 25% of UK security companies, and across eleven years operating in Aberdeen, we maintain zero unplanned absenteeism, with contingency cover already agreed in advance, not scrambled together.
Our building security services cover every major commercial district and residential area within Aberdeen and its surrounding towns, bringing consistent protection where you need it.
Aberdeen’s economy runs on energy, logistics, retail and higher education, each with its own risk profile, and each covered under a dedicated approach.
Aberdeen’s harbour-side estates house warehouses, factories and logistics operators storing high-value stock and equipment overnight. Our officers secure yards, loading bays and access points, where unmonitored hours are exactly when theft happens.
New builds and refurbishments across the city face theft of materials, plant and tools out of hours. Our guards and mobile patrols secure hoarding lines, compounds and access gates until handover
Shopping units on Union Street and offices across business parks like Westhill face shoplifting, antisocial behaviour and out-of-hours break-ins. We provide guards who protect stock, staff and premises alike, every day of the week.
With the University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University drawing thousands of students each year, purpose-built accommodation needs visible, approachable security that keeps residents safe without feeling like a lockdown.
It depends on your site, but typically covers static or mobile guarding, access control and out-of-hours patrols, tailored after we assess your building’s actual risk profile.
In most cases, we can have SIA-licensed officers on-site within 24 to 48 hours of confirming requirements, including for urgent cover at construction sites or retail units.
