Introduction
Construction Site Security In London
Construction sites are among the hardest premises to secure. The boundary changes weekly, the value on site peaks unpredictably, and dozens of people who do not work for you have legitimate reasons to be there.
We provide static officers, gatehouse cover and overnight patrols for London construction sites, from small residential conversions to multi phase commercial developments.
Why site security is different
The losses that hurt on a construction site are rarely the ones people plan for. Copper, cable, power tools and fuel go missing steadily rather than dramatically, and the programme delay usually costs more than the materials.
There is also a control function that has nothing to do with theft. Knowing who is on site, that inductions have been done and that deliveries are booked in is a safety and compliance requirement as much as a security one.
Not sure whether this is the right service for your property? Call us on +44 7534 463333 and we will tell you if something else would suit you better.

Key benefits
Why Clients Choose This Service
The practical reasons London property owners and managers put this service in place.
Protect the programme
Stolen cable and plant cost days, not just money. Preventing the loss protects the dates you have committed to.
Control of the gate
A clear record of who is on site, when they arrived and whether their induction and permits are valid.
Deliveries under control
Booked in, checked and marshalled properly, which keeps the highway clear and the neighbours quiet.
Cover when the site is empty
Nights, weekends and shutdowns are when sites are most exposed and least watched.
How we deliver it
Our Process
The same four stages every time, so you always know where a job has got to.
01
Site and programme review
We look at the boundary, the compound, the storage arrangements and the phase the project is in, because the risk changes as the build progresses.
02
Security plan
Gate procedures, patrol routes, delivery protocol and escalation are agreed with the site manager and written down.
03
Mobilisation
Officers are inducted onto the site like any other operative, and briefed on the specific risks and rules.
04
Review at each phase
As the structure closes in and the risk profile changes, the specification is adjusted rather than left as it was at groundworks.

FAQs
Construction Security: Your Questions Answered
The questions we are asked most often. If yours is not here, call or message us and we will answer it directly.
Yes. Gate duties commonly include checking deliveries against the booking schedule, verifying inductions and permits, and marshalling vehicles. We agree exactly what sits with the officer and what stays with your site team.
Yes. Christmas and holiday shutdowns are among the highest risk periods on any site, and we plan cover for them well in advance.
It depends on the value on site and the boundary. Many projects use patrols during early phases and move to static overnight cover once high value materials arrive. We will advise honestly on which is proportionate.
Officers working on your site are inducted like any other operative and briefed on the site rules, hazards and emergency arrangements before they start.
