Static Security Services
Overview
In today's competitive world, businesses face numerous challenges, one of the most critical being the safety and security of their operations. Business continuity can be severely affected by internal and external threats, especially during tough economic periods. Static security services provide a highly visible deterrent against criminal activity and an effective mechanism for detecting potential threats. We have many years of experience in supplying professional static security officers, including last minute and ad-hoc deployments. We carefully evaluate the experience and qualifications of our staff to ensure they are matched with the specific requirements provided by our clients. This commitment to consistency is why our customers frequently request the same security personnel for ongoing assignments. Our security officers are committed to protecting your premises, buildings, offices, personnel and assets 24/7, 365 days a year. Ideally suited for strategic and sensitive locations, our security staff are fully trained and equipped to carry out access control, anti-sabotage checks, vehicle inspection, guarding of vital installations and protection of offices, equipment, buildings, cash, valuables and IT assets.

Frequently Asked Questions
What manned guarding services do you provide?
We provide temporary and permanent static and mobile security officers throughout the UK and Ireland, including static guarding, mobile patrols, door supervision and front-of-house duties, all delivered by SIA-licensed, BS7858-vetted officers.
Are your security guards vetted?
Yes. Every Vigilant security officer undergoes a full five-year screening process to BS7858 before commencing operational duties, so you receive thoroughly vetted, reliable personnel.
Can you cover short-notice or emergency guarding requirements?
Yes. We keep an experienced team of reserve officers on hand specifically to provide emergency cover and to support new contracts where stability and experience are essential from day one.
What is the difference between static and mobile security?
Static security places a dedicated officer at a fixed location to control access and deter threats on site, while mobile patrols cover one or more sites at scheduled or random intervals. Many clients combine both for full coverage.
Do your guards have customer service training?
Yes. Our officers are trained in customer service alongside their security duties, so they protect your premises while representing your organisation professionally at reception and front of house.
