Frequently Asked Questions
Naturally, new and existing clients have questions before taking on new security or making changes.
We get asked a lot of questions about security, the services we offer, and general questions about our company. We decided to create a frequently asked questions page where we can answer the most frequently asked questions that we receive on a daily basis. If you have any questions, please refer to the list we created. If your question has not been answered, please contact us! We make every effort to respond to each one to the best of our abilities.
Security is critical in today’s society for ensuring that businesses are safe both during and after normal working hours. Furthermore, Security can provide protection and visual deterrence to potential criminals who are targeting specific businesses and structures. Every business has some form of security in place, whether it is a Security Guard, CCTV, fencing, or a simple door lock. The security of your assets and property is critical for all businesses across the country.
The cost of a security guard is determined by a variety of factors such as location, job requirements, contract length, shift patterns, number of guards, and so on.
We provide a low-cost solution and will not be beaten on price.
All security guards in the United Kingdom must be SIA-licensed. It is illegal to perform any security work without a valid SIA licence. If you are found to be in violation of the law, you could face up to 6 months in prison or a £5000 fine.
The SIA (Security Industry Authority) are the regulatory body responsible for creating the rules and regulations of the private security industry sector.
We handpick security for each location after recruiting and shortlisting all candidates. First, we look for personnel who are trained, experienced, and available based on the site’s needs. After interviewing each candidate, we determine how many are suitable, local to the site, and from that list, we select which guards we believe have the best skills and qualities to meet the site’s requirements.
We believe that as a figure of authority, Security must appear approachable, professional, and presentable. That is why all of our employees are smartly uniformed. This could include a white shirt, black pants, a black tie, and black shoes. Guards will also wear high visibility vests/jackets to help them be identified as security officers. We can customise the uniform to your needs.
We have thoroughly screened and vetted all of our staff to ensure that they have a valid SIA licence and can legally work on site. Prior to issuing a SIA licence, all applicants are subjected to DBS checks, employment history, immigration checks, and character references.
