Manned guarding and mobile patrol conditions during the winter

The main difference between security in the winter compared to the summer months is in the conditions that our security officers face. Not only does the temperature have a great impact, but the lighting does too. Reduced daylight hours mean our security officers need to be extra alert – knowing that many criminals prefer to operate under the cover of darkness.

Our expert experience means we’re fully aware and prepared for the increased demand and pressure that working throughout the winter means in the security industry.

Alarm response and keyholding, security required throughout the year

No matter what time of year it is, there are several core services that remain the same. In addition to manned guarding and mobile patrols, mentioned above, our alarm response and keyholding services are also just as important – if not more so – during the colder months.

With increased crime rates throughout the winter, knowing you have qualified and trusted security personnel ready to attend your business should an alarm be triggered, should put your mind at rest. It also protects your staff, as having contracted registered keyholders means you don’t need to rely on your employees to attend an alarm out of hours – potentially finding themselves in a threatening and uncomfortable decision.

Event security is much more popular during the summer months

Festivals and events are much more popular in the summer, and that brings an increased demand for our event security services. Security should always be at the forefront of any event you might be planning, whether that’s a corporate event, a sporting event, or a music event.

We can provide security officers to assist with ticketing, to help with car parking and management, as well as ensuring you have trusted security to step in should de-escalation of anti-social behaviour be required. We can also ensure that key areas are kept private and not accessible by the general public.

For more information on how we can provide a reliable security service, at any point during the year, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with a member of our team. We look forward to hearing from you.
