Trusted Protection in Dunbar
No venues are listed for Dunbar, so the town's security needs come mainly from its commercial sites. Within 5km are Spott Road Industrial Estate, S&P Blair & Sons, Belhaven Brewery, Thistly Cross Cider, LaFarge Cement and a business listed as Need Space?. Drinks producers hold valuable stock, while industrial yards hold plant that needs reliable alarm cover. Across East Lothian, hospitality and agriculture both run above the British average, adding pubs and farms to the picture.
Dunbar Business Profile
East Lothian has 3,305 registered businesses. Construction leads with 500, professional services follow with 455 and leisure and entertainment with 300. Hospitality and agriculture each account for 8.3% of firms, compared with 6.5% and 4.5% across Britain. That means pubs and restaurants that may want door supervisors on busy nights, and farms where solar CCTV towers and rural patrols suit open yards.
We cover Dunbar through our wider network of officers, each SIA-licensed, vetted to BS 7858 and paid through PAYE. Every patrol is booked on by GPS and summarised in a digital report. With 5 construction sites mapped nearby and a cement works close by, contractors and industrial operators can also arrange camera towers and out-of-hours checks on plant.

Crime & Security Data
Because Scotland's figures come from Police Scotland and not Police.uk, this page carries no local crime breakdown for Dunbar.
South of the border our pages show what was recorded near each town, but the same mile-by-mile view is not available here. The practical alternative is an inspection of your own site. Our free on-site security audit, normally £250, runs through a 25-point checklist covering fences, gates, lighting, alarms and storage, then ranks what to fix first.
