Accountants, consultancies and similar firms hold client records and IT equipment, so an alarm that is answered by a trained key holder matters more than a guard on the door. Our 24/7 control room manages key holding and alarm response, and attending officers are SIA-licensed and BS 7858 vetted. Five security workers in our network have homes within 10 miles. Construction, at 17.6% against 14.1% nationally, is the other standout. Building sites carry tools, fuel and plant that are hard to replace mid-project, and the 20 mapped nearby suggest steady demand for site protection. CCTV towers give round-the-clock coverage, while out-of-hours patrols book on by GPS and file digital reports. Trade units at Clarklands Industrial Estate and Sarbir Industrial Park often combine both approaches. 8,255 Registered businesses in East Hertfordshire 20 Active construction sites mapped within 5 km 32 Pubs, bars & nightclubs within 5 km ### Business parks, retail and venues nearby - **Industrial & business parks:** Clarklands Industrial Estate, Riverside Business Park, Spellbrook Business Centre, Westwood Park, Maple River Business Units and Sarbir Industrial Park - **Retail parks & shopping centres:** Harlow Retail Park, Dukes Retail Park, Queensgate Centre, Oaks Retail Park and Thorley Neighbourhood Centre - **Hospitals:** Jacob's Neuro Centre and Rivers Hospital - **Rail stations:** Sawbridgeworth and Harlow Mill ### Venues & Martyn's Law Victoria Hall, Cineworld and The Henry Moore Foundation are within 5km of Sawbridgeworth.
