Our professional and BS 7858-screened security team will deal with any incident and manage the process, performing external and internal checks and contacting our Mitec technology centre immediately if emergency services are required.

Security patrols bespoke to your needs:

• Our professional, BS 7858-screened security officers provide a highly visible deterrent through scheduled and random patrols. We provide detailed reports for each patrol including date, time and if any action was required, providing you with a full audit trail.

Vacant property security & inspection:

• Through the expertise of our dedicated void property inspection team, you can ensure your organisation’s compliance with its building insurance requirements. We can also conduct thorough risk assessments of each site to create bespoke security solutions to keep your vacant properties safe.

Alarm response:

We provide a detailed report for each incident, outlining the time of activation, officers responding, vehicle information, arrival time on site, and the action taken, providing a complete audit trail for your records.

Wireless security systems:

• To reduce unnecessary and costly call-outs for false alarms, we offer visual verification through our wireless system, Detect. This can provide real-time incident images in progress, that are monitored at our Mitec facility. This allows the team to accurately assess incidents and take the necessary course of action, including deploying a team on the ground, if required.
