Bonfire night trouble, a burst shutter or an alarm activation at Lomeshaye Industrial Estate can leave a Brierfield business exposed. Our 24/7 control room arranges emergency guarding, key holding and temporary CCTV towers.
Trusted Protection in Brierfield
Not every security need is planned. In Brierfield, local police link a rise in anti-social behaviour to bonfire night, and criminal damage and arson accounted for 174 offences within a mile last year. When a window goes in or an alarm sounds overnight, our 24/7 control room can book an officer to guard the building, send a key holder, or place a CCTV tower until repairs are done. Regular patrols can be set up afterwards.
