Security Services

Construction Site Security

Specialist protection for active building and construction sites — static guarding, canine units and controlled site access, delivered by experienced personnel who understand how a live site actually runs.

Overview

Cover built around the build programme

Construction sites change shape week by week. Access points move, materials arrive in bulk and whole areas sit unlit overnight. We survey the site, agree the risk points with the site manager and put the right mix of officers, dog units and access control in place — then adjust as the programme moves through each phase.

Every shift is logged, every incident reported, and your site team gets one point of contact for changes, escalations and additional cover at short notice.

Risks we are asked to control

  • Plant, tool and copper theft during shutdown periods
  • Trespass and unauthorised access to unfinished structures
  • Fly-tipping and damage to hoarding and welfare units
  • Uncontrolled deliveries and unverified contractors on site

What we provide

Specialist construction security services

Static Security Guarding

Vetted officers stationed on site around the clock — gatehouse cover, plant and materials protection, patrols between deliveries and full shift handover records.

  • 24/7 or out-of-hours static cover
  • Gatehouse and site entrance manning
  • Plant, tool and material theft prevention
  • Documented patrols and incident logs

Dog Handlers / Canine Units

Licensed handlers with trained general-purpose security dogs for open, high-risk or hard-to-light sites where a visible deterrent stops intrusion before it starts.

  • Night-time canine patrols of open ground
  • Handler-led search of part-built structures
  • Rapid deterrent for trespass and metal theft
  • Handlers trained to work safely around live sites

Access Control & Perimeter Security

Controlled entry for every worker, visitor and delivery, plus routine perimeter checks on hoarding, fencing and lighting so weak points are found before they are used.

  • Sign-in, ID checks and contractor verification
  • Delivery and vehicle movement control
  • Hoarding, fence line and gate integrity checks
  • CCTV and alarm response coordination

Who it's for

Principal contractors, developers and site managers

From single-plot residential builds to phased commercial developments, we provide cover for groundworks through to handover — including short-notice weekend and shutdown guarding when the site is at its most exposed.
