Protecting Willenhall’s Supply Chain & Factories
Willenhall sits at the gateway to the Black Country's logistics network. Its high concentration of metalworking, lock manufacturing, and distribution businesses creates specific security risks that technology alone cannot mitigate. You need boots on the ground.
-
Logistics & Distribution (Ashmore Lake): Our guards provide rigorous gatehouse checks (vehicle logging, seal checks, driver ID verification) to prevent cargo theft and unauthorized access.
-
Heavy Manufacturing (Monmer Lane): A hub for metal finishing, these sites are prime targets for scrap metal theft. Our guards patrol perimeters to prevent "skim theft" of raw materials.
-
Retail Security (The Keyway): High-traffic retail zones require visible officers to deter shoplifting and manage public safety during peak hours.
-
Derelict Site Management: As industry shifts, older factories in Portobello can become targets for arson and squatting. 24/7 guarding ensures these assets don't become liabilities.

Securing a Distribution Hub at Ashmore Lake
100% Accuracy in vehicle logs and manifests.
Logistics Security Case Study
The Challenge: A busy logistics hub was struggling with unauthorized vehicles entering the yard and drivers bypassing security checks. This led to stock discrepancies and safety hazards.
Our Solution: Deployed 24/7 SIA-licensed gatehouse guards to manage the main barrier. Implemented a strict policy where every non-company vehicle was logged and searched upon exit. Guards also assisted in directing HGVs to correct bays, reducing congestion.
