Protecting the Heartland of Industry
Bilston is a working town with a high density of manufacturing and retail. This creates specific security risks that technology alone cannot mitigate.
-
Heavy Industry Protection: As a hub for steel and scrap processing in Springvale, sites here are prime targets. Our guards vet vehicles and patrol perimeters to prevent high-value loss.
-
Retail & Market Security: Bilston Market and the High Street see thousands of visitors. Our uniformed officers manage crowd safety and deter pickpockets in these high-footfall zones.
-
Logistics Gatehouse Duties: Factories near the Black Country Route require strict access control. Our guards check manifests and search vehicles to ensure supply chain integrity.
-
Construction Security: With new housing developments rising on brownfield sites in Coseley, our CSCS-carded officers protect plant machinery and fuel from overnight theft.

Gatehouse Management for Heavy Industry
Preventing high-value metal theft in Springvale.
Securing a Steel Stockholder
The Challenge: A steel stockholder in Springvale was experiencing "shrinkage" where outgoing loads were heavier than recorded, suggesting staff collusion with drivers.
Our Solution: We deployed independent SIA guards to manage the weighbridge, implemented a "driver isolation" policy during weighing to prevent tampering, and conducted random cabin searches for high-value scrap items.

West Midlands Regional Guarding: Common Questions
Can you cover multiple sites in different towns under one contract?
Yes. We specialize in multi-site contracts. You can have guards in Birmingham, Walsall, and Coventry all managed under a single account manager and monthly invoice.
How fast can you deploy guards to a new site in the region?
We have a "Rapid Response" team on standby. We can typically have a guard on any site within the West Midlands county in under 60 minutes.
Do you have local guards in every borough?
Yes. We recruit locally. A guard deployed to Wolverhampton will be from the Wolverhampton/Black Country area, ensuring they know the local terrain and transport links.
Are you accredited to work on council projects?
Absolutely. We hold SIA Approved Contractor Status (ACS) and Constructionline Gold, meeting the procurement standards for all West Midlands local authorities.
Do you operate 24/7/365 in Bilston?
Yes, our control room never closes. We provide round-the-clock protection including weekends, Bank Holidays, and overnight shifts to ensure continuous security.
What happens if a guard calls in sick?
We have a dedicated relief team based in the West Midlands ready to step in immediately. This ensures there is zero gap in your coverage if a regular officer is unavailable.
Do your guards wear body cameras?
Yes, for evidence gathering and transparency, our officers can be equipped with body-worn video cameras upon request, which is particularly useful for retail or public-facing roles.
Can you provide dog handlers in this area?
Yes, we deploy NASDU-accredited dog units for high-risk sites or large perimeters in industrial areas like Springvale, providing an extra layer of deterrent.
Is there a minimum contract length?
We are flexible. While we specialize in long-term contracts, we can also provide short-term cover for construction projects, events, or temporary site closures.
How do you track your guards' patrols?
We use real-time GPS patrol tagging systems. You receive digital reports proving exactly when and where patrols were conducted across your site.
