Construction Site Security, common questions

Can you secure a vacant property against squatters?
Yes, through static guarding, regular patrols and keyholding we deter and rapidly respond to trespass and unauthorised occupation.
How do you protect construction plant and materials?
With SIA officers, access control and random-timed patrols that deter theft, plus documented checks that support any insurance claim if an incident occurs.
Can cover change as the project progresses?
Yes. We flex between static guarding, mobile patrols and alarm response as the risk profile of each phase of your build changes.
