Business centres within 5km, such as Clifford Park and Hatton Rock, suit shared arrangements in which one patrol checks several offices. Every officer we place is SIA-licensed, BS 7858 vetted and paid through PAYE. Agriculture, at 740 firms, brings risks to machinery and fuel on open land, so rural mobile patrols and solar CCTV towers monitored via an NSI Gold accredited centre are the practical choice. Builders, with 985 firms and two mapped sites nearby, need site guarding or CCTV towers.
