Sheffield’s overall crime rate sits at 84 crimes per 1,000 people, with vehicle crime alone accounting for over 3,700 reported incidents in the past year. For sites with multiple vehicle movements, deliveries, and contractor traffic, an unmanned entrance is an open invitation.
Our service places trained guards at every access point. They verify identification, log vehicle and visitor movements, and stop unverified entry before it reaches your site. Whether you run a single-gated entrance or a multi-point industrial yard, our gatehouse security guard team gives you a controlled, recorded first line of defence.
This isn’t passive observation. Every check, every refusal, and every visitor log is recorded and reportable, so you always know who’s on site and why.
Every guard we deploy is SIA-licensed and BS7858-vetted before they ever stand at your gate. Our REMS tracking system logs each shift change with a QR check-in, so missed posts trigger an alert, not a gap.
All officers fully SIA licensed & vetted
Quality management system certified

A gatehouse rarely works in isolation. Most Sheffield sites pair entry control with patrols, static cover, or specialist support, depending on layout and risk.
Trained guards who patrol your site, respond to incidents, and support your gatehouse team when foot traffic or visitor numbers increase beyond a single entry point.
A fixed guard presence for buildings and premises that need continuous on-site cover beyond the entrance, watching for risks your gatehouse team can’t see from the gate.
K9 teams that strengthen perimeter checks at larger sites, helping deter intruders and detect concealed risks that vehicle and visitor screening alone might miss.
Every site has its own way of operating. Some deal with regular deliveries throughout the day, while others have contractors, employees, and visitors arriving at different times. That’s why we take the time to understand how your site works before providing gatehouse security.
Our services are planned around your access points, opening hours, traffic levels, and site rules. Whether you need cover for a single entrance or several access points, our Trained security guards follow your procedures. and help keep entry to your premises organised, secure, and properly managed.
From the first vehicle of the morning to the last contractor leaving the site, here’s what’s included in our Sheffield gatehouse cover.
Every visitor is checked against your approved list before entry. No exceptions, no unlogged guests, and no gaps in your record of who has been on site.
Guards verify vehicle registrations, driver ID, and delivery paperwork at the barrier, reducing the chance of unauthorised vehicles reaching loading bays or restricted zones.
Every entry and refusal is recorded in real time, giving you an accurate, time-stamped record of site access whenever you need to review it.
Setting up gatehouse cover with us follows a clear process, built around your site layout, shift patterns, and access requirements from day one.
We assess your entry points, traffic flow, and current risks before recommending guard numbers and shift coverage suited to your site.
Vetted, trained guards are deployed to your gatehouse with clear instructions on your visitor policy, vehicle checks, and escalation procedures.
Shift activity is tracked through scheduled check-ins, with reporting available so you can review access patterns and adjust cover as needed.
Access control is only as strong as the people running it. Here’s what sets our gatehouse teams apart from generic security cover.
Every guard at your gatehouse passes BS7858 vetting before deployment. Before deployment.
You’re never left guessing whether your gate is covered. Our tracking system flags missed check-ins and confirms guard presence throughout the day.
We never subcontract gatehouse cover. Every guard on your site is employed, trained, and managed by us, so accountability never gets passed down the line.
Our Sheffield gatehouse teams cover sites across the city and surrounding areas, from industrial estates to retail parks and construction sites.
Different sites need different access protocols. Here’s how our gatehouse security service in Sheffield applies across the sectors we work with most.
Construction sites face high contractor turnover and frequent deliveries. Our gatehouse guards manage entry logs and verify access against your site authorisation list daily.
Warehouse sites depend on tight control over goods and vehicle movement. Our guards check delivery paperwork and restrict yard access to authorised drivers only.
Retail parks and shopping sites need a controlled service yard and staff entry access, separate from public footfall, to reduce stock loss and unauthorised entry.
Factory sites require strict entry control to protect equipment, stock, and staff. Our gatehouse guards manage shift-pattern access and visitor checks at every point.
A gatehouse guard checks every visitor and vehicle entering your site, verifies identification against your approved list, and records all entry and exit activity throughout each shift.
