Security for manufacturing and logistics

Protecting goods, vehicles and people around the clock

Factories, warehouses and distribution centres run on movement: vehicles in and out, goods received and dispatched, shifts changing through the night. Security has to work with that rhythm rather than against it. A gatehouse that holds up deliveries costs money; one with no procedure at all is where stock disappears.

We write gatehouse procedures together with your operations team — what is checked on every vehicle, how drivers are identified, how exceptions are escalated — and train the officers to apply them consistently. Vehicle and bag searches are carried out by officers trained in the relevant procedures, with body-worn cameras where you require them, and are logged so that disputes can be resolved from the record.

On site

• Perimeter and yard patrols with NFC check points, so you can see which areas were visited and when.
• Goods-out checks against dispatch paperwork, and tamper checks on seals and trailers.
• Enforcement of site health-and-safety rules: PPE, speed limits, pedestrian routes and smoking areas.
• Control-room duties: CCTV monitoring, alarm handling, radio contact with patrols and a documented shift handover.

Where a site already has CCTV, access control or alarm systems, our officers work with those systems; where it does not, we can advise on what would reduce the guarding hours needed.
