When an alarm sounds at a Cullompton unit or farm and the owner is miles away, our 24/7 control room takes the call. Key holding, alarm response and unplanned patrol cover are arranged from there.
Trusted Protection in Cullompton
Not every security need in Cullompton can be booked weeks ahead. A broken window, a failed lock or an alarm activation in the night needs someone to attend, check and secure the site. Our control room operates around the clock, holds keys for registered clients and dispatches a licensed officer to inspect, reset alarms and report back. That suits owners of units on Kingsmill and Alexandria industrial estates and farmers across Mid Devon alike.
Cullompton Business Profile
Mid Devon has 4,605 registered businesses. Agriculture dominates with 1,285, followed by construction with 640 and professional services with 435. Farming's 27.9% share, against 4.5% across Great Britain, means many sites are remote and lightly watched, which makes key holding and rural patrols especially useful. Solar CCTV towers add remote watching where there is no mains power.
Manufacturing is also above average at 5.8% against 4.6%. Production units usually need access control, static guarding during shutdowns and alarm response when closed. Every officer we send to Cullompton is SIA-licensed, BS 7858 vetted and on PAYE, and each attendance is logged by GPS with a written report and photographs.

Crime & Security Data
In the year to August 2026, Police.uk logged 779 offences in the one-mile radius around Cullompton.
Close to half of Cullompton's total, 361 offences, is violence and sexual offences. Anti-social behaviour (98) sits well behind, with criminal damage and arson (79), shoplifting (73) and public order (43) after it. Set the newest quarter beside its equivalent in the previous year and the count has dropped 15%. For premises that close at night, damage is the figure that matters, because it is the risk alarm response and patrols are built to catch.
