Security Guard Services
Over the last 40 years, CSG has delivered security guard services for virtually every type of commercial property — vacant premises, shopping centres and retail outlets, warehouses, offices, construction sites and more.
Security Officer Hire
Security officer hire could be a standalone service, or personnel can be deployed alongside your existing security team.
All our security officers are SIA-licensed. They are highly trained, courteous professionals who provide both robust protection and a friendly welcome to staff and visitors. As a visible security presence, they are a powerful deterrent.
Security officer hire is an adaptable service. It could be on an ad hoc basis, for a one-off event, 24/7 as a long-term commitment, or at specific times of the day or night.
Call the CSG team on 0844 561 0578 for a chat about your requirements, or send a message.
Manned Guarding — affordable options
There are a number of flexible, affordable options available with our manned guarding services. For example:
- Mobile security patrols — Surveillance patrols, and a rapid 24/7 response
- Reception security provides a discreet security presence, access control, plus a meet and greet service
- K9 security, or dog patrols — A security officer and security dog works together as a team
- Keyholding services to investigate and respond to intruder alarms on your behalf
- An open and lock-up service which protects staff, property and assets
Dog Patrols, K9 Security
Dog patrols, known as K9 security, provide high-level threat detection and the ultimate deterrent to criminals. They offer a visible defence, rapid threat detection and ultra-fast pursuit capabilities.
Our dog patrol personnel can work in conjunction with your security guards, or as a stand-alone service. They are available for one-off events, on an ad hoc basis or as a long-term security asset.
There are numerous security and cost benefits to dog patrol units:
- The cost of one security guard with a dog is lower than the cost of two security guards
- Security dogs are a powerful deterrent to thieves, squatters, fly tippers and vandals
- They detect intruders considerably earlier than their human handler
- On a hazardous site, search and rescue can be carried out efficiently, saving lives and minimising damage
- If your site is vulnerable to drug users, dogs can easily detect their presence
- They can be equipped with body cams to live-stream incidents in real time
Our Security Officers
Our security officers are conscientious, highly-trained individuals who care about the safety of your property, and build trusted professional relationships with the people they protect.
All our security personnel hold a Security Industry Authority (SIA) licence. In order to qualify, they will have demonstrated a comprehensive range of skills — communication, first aid, emergency response and dispute resolution among them.
The professional SIA accreditation is proof that our security officers can face any challenge and handle it with calm efficiency.
It’s a flexibly adaptable service, so call the CSG team on 0844 561 0578 for a chat about your requirements, or send a message.
