Our primary service
Static Security That Does More Than Stand at the Gate
A Guards 247 officer works as an active part of your site operation rather than a presence at the gate. Depending on the site, that means running the gatehouse, controlling access for staff, visitors and contractors, checking vehicles and booking HGVs in and out, patrolling the perimeter, holding and issuing keys, responding to incidents and handing over a written report at the end of every shift.
Duties, patrol routes and escalation contacts are set out in site-specific assignment instructions agreed with you before the first shift, so cover matches how your premises actually run.
