Mansfield's evenings revolve around the Palace Theatre, The Old Library and nightclubs such as Urban, Lexis, QI and Canvas. We supply licensed door supervisors and event stewards who keep those nights orderly and well documented.
Trusted Protection in Mansfield
With 83 pubs, bars and nightclubs inside 5km, Mansfield's night-time economy is a significant employer and a significant responsibility. Licensees need door teams who can manage queues, refuse entry calmly and record every incident. Theatre and arts venues need stewards who understand crowd flow and evacuation routes. We plan staffing with each operator, brief officers on the venue's policies and back them with our 24/7 control room.
Mansfield Business Profile
Mansfield district has 2,970 registered businesses, led by construction with 600, professional services with 300 and retail with 275. Transport and logistics is above the British average at 6.2% against 4.3%, and the motor trade at 5.4% against 3.0%. Warehouses need gatehouse control and yard guarding, while car dealers and garages benefit from CCTV towers and night patrols against vehicle theft.
For venues, the key requirement is a reliable door team. Our officers hold SIA licences, have passed BS 7858 vetting and are paid through PAYE, so licensees can show the council and police that their staff are properly checked. Incident reports are written up digitally and kept on record, which supports licence reviews and any follow-up police investigation.
The Palace Theatre, The Old Library and nightclubs including Urban and Canvas are within 5km of Mansfield. Martyn's Law will set duties for venues of 200 or more once it commences, and our stewards help operators meet them. What Martyn's Law means for venues.
