Fife's administrative centre, the new town of Glenrothes, is laid out around a run of industrial estates and business parks. We secure those premises with licensed guards, mobile patrols, CCTV towers and key holding.
Trusted Protection in Glenrothes
Queensway, Eastfield, Southfield and Whitehill industrial estates all lie inside 5km of Glenrothes, along with Westwood Park and Blackwood Park. Fife counts 8,890 registered businesses, and construction leads at 1,395, so yards, depots and live sites are a big part of the picture. We plan security for each unit after a site visit, mixing gate guards, out-of-hours patrols and monitored alarms to suit how the premises actually operates.
Glenrothes Business Profile
Officers in our network serving Glenrothes are SIA-licensed, vetted to BS 7858 and employed through PAYE. Each patrol is confirmed with a GPS book-on, and reports go to our 24/7 control room, where alarms and CCTV are also watched. That means a manager at Eastfield or Westwood Park gets a timed record of every visit rather than a promise that someone looked in.
Construction, with 1,395 firms, professional services on 1,135 and hospitality on 795 are Fife's three largest sectors. Agriculture stands at 7.0% of businesses against 4.5% across Britain, which points to rural mobile patrols and solar CCTV towers for farms and outbuildings. Hospitality, at 8.9% against 6.5%, brings demand for door supervisors and evening cover.
Rothes Halls, the Kino Cinema, Warout Stadium and the Styx nightclub all fall inside the 5km circle. Any of them hosting 200 people or more will owe duties under Martyn's Law from spring 2027, and we can field licensed event and door teams. What Martyn's Law means for venues.

Crime & Security Data
Scotland's crime figures are released by Police Scotland and are not carried on Police.uk, so no one-mile breakdown appears here.
Because Police.uk covers England, Wales and Northern Ireland only, we cannot display the same one-mile crime breakdown here. That does not leave a business without a clear picture. Our free on-site security audit, worth £250, looks at access points, lighting, alarms and how your premises is used, and our 25-point security risk checklist turns that into a practical list of priorities.
Local Policing
