1. Security guards can see areas of your site that CCTV cannot

CCTV will have blind spots, and a criminal may choose to take advantage of those to slip through the net. Having feet on the ground in the form of security officers patrolling means you're taking a proactive approach to the safety of your business and reduces the likelihood of an intruder being missed.

2. Security guards on site often act as a deterrent

Simply having the presence of a trained professional on site can prevent crime. Seeing a security officer means you're serious about safety on your premises. It shows a potential intruder that you've taken an extra step in preventing crime and theft, and the chance of being caught is therefore heightened.

3. On-site security guards can react quickly and efficiently to intruder alarms

 This isn't exclusive to intruder alarms though. Have you thought what the benefits of having someone on site to recognise a fire alarm and take appropriate action? Having a security guard on site will put your mind at rest that someone is ready to act whilst you're sound asleep.

It also means that you're much less likely to have a false alarm, as you have someone on site to investigate straight away. Ultimately this is a time- and cost-saving benefit to having a manned guarding security service.
