London’s Metropolitan Police area recorded a crime rate of 82 offences per 1,000 people in the 12 months to April 2026. Theft from the person has climbed to 7.08 reports per 1,000, over four times the national average.
The West End, Stratford and Croydon are among the Met’s named hotspots for phone theft and shoplifting. Vehicle crime and robbery remain persistent risks too, with over 30,000 robbery offences recorded in the same period.
This is exactly why manned guarding London businesses rely on isn’t a box-ticking exercise. Our SIA-licensed security guards patrol static and mobile sites, control access points, and log every incident with police reference numbers through our REMS tracking system.
Whether you’re managing a construction site, a logistics hub or a busy retail unit, our on-site security personnel are trained to spot problems before they escalate and respond the moment something happens.
Every guard we deploy operates under SIA approval, ISO 9001:2015 quality management and SafeContractor compliance. From NASDU-aligned K9 units to Constructionline Silver status, our credentials are checked, current and ready for audit.
We hire fully vetted security officers.
Quality management system certified
Our guards follow strict health laws.
From retail door supervision to construction gatehouses, we deploy the right security personnel to match your London operation’s layout, footfall and threat level.
Our dedicated guard remains fixed at one location, watching entrances, deterring intruders and keeping a continuous presence on retail units, offices and construction sites throughout the day and night.
Our officers manage entry points for factories, business parks and gated developments, checking IDs, logging vehicles and making sure only authorised people and deliveries get through the gate.
Handler-led dog units add a visible deterrent to warehouses, construction sites and large events, helping detect intruders faster and giving your site an extra layer of protection after dark.
Every manned guarding contract comes with a clear set of responsibilities our officers own from day one. That means controlling access points, verifying visitors and contractors, running scheduled patrols, and escalating incidents the moment they happen rather than after the fact.
Our guards work to document procedures for each site, not a generic checklist, and every action is recorded through REMS for full traceability. This level of ownership is backed by SIA-licensed training, ISO 9001:2015 quality management and eleven years of operational experience across construction, retail, healthcare and corporate sites.
It’s the difference between a guard who’s simply present and one who’s actively accountable for what happens on your site.
Manned guarding London clients ask us for one fixed package. It flexes by site, footfall and risk.
Our guards verify identification, sign in visitors and contractors, and control who enters your building or site, reducing the risk of unauthorised access during business hours and overnight.
Every incident is logged in real time through REMS, complete with photos, timestamps and police reference numbers where relevant, giving you a clear record for insurance and management review.
Our officers carry out scheduled walks around your premises, checking fencing, doors, windows and blind spots that are often the first point of entry for intruders or opportunist thieves.
If an incident escalates, our guards are trained to manage lockdown procedures, liaise with police and keep staff safe until the situation is fully resolved and reported.
From first enquiry to first shift, we keep the process short. No lengthy onboarding, no generic guards, just a properly briefed officer who understands your site before they arrive.
We visit your premises to assess entry points, footfall, existing gaps and specific risks, then recommend the right guard numbers, shift patterns and equipment for your location and budget.
We build a coverage plan around your operating hours, whether that's a single receptionist-style guard or a full rotating team across multiple shifts and access points.
We quickly send vetted guards to your plot with live tracking gear to protect your assets right away. They start work immediately.
Our SIA-licensed guards are briefed on your site's specific procedures and deployed quickly, often within days, with uniforms, equipment and reporting tools ready from day one.
You receive regular incident reports and check-in data through REMS, and we review performance with you to adjust cover as your site's risk profile changes over time.
Not all manned security contracts are equal. Here’s what makes our approach a smarter long-term choice.
We’re not chasing certificates for the sake of a logo wall. SIA approval, ISO 9001:2015 and SafeContractor status are checked, current and available for your insurer or facilities team to review at any time. This is the paperwork that gets your site past due diligence checks without delay, and it’s backed by real inspections. When a client’s compliance team asks for evidence, we provide it within hours, not weeks.
Eleven years in, we’ve guarded steel manufacturing plants, construction hoardings, student accommodation and NHS-linked healthcare premises, which means a new site rarely surprises us. We bring over 30 years of combined frontline and management experience, and that shapes how every officer is briefed before their first shift, rather than sending a generic guard profile to every job regardless of sector.
Every guard checks in through our REMS system every 45 minutes, so you’re never guessing whether cover is actually on-site. Incidents come with photos, timestamps and police references attached. Most guarding companies ask you to trust that a guard turned up. We give you proof, updated in real time, so you always know exactly what’s happening on your site.
We deploy manned guarding London-wide, from the City’s financial core to outer-borough retail parks and industrial estates. If your site sits within Greater London, we can cover it.
