Manned Guarding in Tewkesbury
"Smart Security Dictates the Perimeter Before a Threat Even Approaches."
Depending entirely on passive technology like a CCTV system that only records the aftermath of a break-in—leaves your commercial assets critically exposed. A camera cannot stop a coordinated gang from breaching your perimeter fencing, and an alarm cannot physically intercept unauthorized vehicles entering your logistics yard. Eagle Security Protection Ltd supplies elite, SIA-licensed manned guarding services tailored to the unique commercial landscape of Tewkesbury and its surrounding Gloucestershire borders. From controlling high-volume HGV traffic at Ashchurch Business Centre to deploying robust static guards for engineering sites on Shannon Way, we place highly trained, physical deterrents exactly where your business vulnerabilities lie. We do not just observe your property; we actively defend it.

We work alongside established organisations to maintain site safety and operational continuity.
Stop Leaving Your Ashchurch Assets Open to Fast-Moving Theft
Tewkesbury’s prime commercial advantage is its immediate proximity to the M5 motorway network. However, this same connectivity makes unmonitored industrial estates in Ashchurch and Walton Cardiff highly lucrative targets for organized, transient criminal networks. They rely on unmanned sites to execute high-speed "hit-and-run" thefts.
Book a Site AuditThe Supply Chain & Freight Risk
Without professional gatehouse security, logistics yards suffer from unauthorized access, tailgating, and internal stock shrinkage. Our officers enforce strict entry and exit protocols to seal your supply chain.
The Plant Machinery Threat
Unattended manufacturing sites and engineering yards are prime targets for metal and machinery theft. A physical security guard shatters the criminals' observation cycle, forcing them to abandon their plans.
The Retail & Corporate Liability
Unmonitored storefronts in the town center face constant threats of shoplifting and anti-social behavior, while empty corporate buildings risk catastrophic vandalism. A physical presence mitigates these threats instantly.

Intercepting Logistical Fraud at an Ashchurch Gatehouse
"Active deterrence is key."
A major distribution center operating in Ashchurch was experiencing unexplained internal supply chain discrepancies. Management suspected that unauthorized sub-contractors were gaining access to the loading bays during peak afternoon hours by tailgating legitimate haulage vehicles.
Eagle Security Protection Ltd was contracted to replace their automated barrier system with a fully manned Gatehouse Security protocol. We deployed two SIA-licensed officers to enforce a strict "Stop, Verify, and Record" mandate for every single incoming and outgoing HGV.
During the second week of deployment, a flatbed vehicle attempted to enter the yard using a copied, outdated delivery manifest. Our gatehouse officer noticed discrepancies in the driver's identification and refused entry, immediately locking down the barrier. 100% reduction in stock shrinkage reported.

Tewkesbury Manned Guarding FAQs
We have an emergency at our Tewkesbury site tonight. How fast can you deploy a guard?
We specialize in rapid crisis response. We can typically dispatch a fully briefed, SIA-licensed security officer to your premises in Tewkesbury or Ashchurch within a few hours of your initial call.
Are all of your security officers fully licensed and vetted?
Yes. Every security professional we deploy holds a valid, active SIA license. As an SIA Approved Contractor, we also thoroughly vet all staff to BS 7858 standards, which includes rigorous 5-year employment history and criminal record checks.
What type of uniform will the security guards wear on our site?
We tailor our uniform to your operational environment. For logistics yards at Ashchurch and manufacturing plants, our officers wear high-visibility tactical security clothing. For corporate receptions or high-end retail, they wear smart, professional business suits.
Can your gatehouse officers log HGV trailer numbers and check seals?
Absolutely. Our gatehouse teams are trained in specific logistics management. They record vehicle registrations, cross-reference trailer seals against manifests, issue visitor passes, and ensure all transport movements are meticulously documented.
Do you charge an increased premium for weekend guarding shifts?
No. Our highly competitive standard hourly rate (from £15/hr) applies equally to weekday nights and standard weekend shifts. Premium rates (double time) are exclusively applied to official UK Bank Holidays.
How can we be sure the static guard is patrolling our site during the night?
Total transparency is our standard. We install durable NFC (Near Field Communication) tags around your perimeter. Our officers must physically scan these tags during their patrols, generating an automated, timestamped digital report delivered to your management team.
Can you provide retail security guards for shops on Tewkesbury High Street?
Yes. We deploy specialist retail loss prevention officers who are highly trained in identifying shoplifting syndicates, providing public reassurance, and safely de-escalating aggressive behavior in retail environments.
What exact duties does a static guard perform during a 12-hour night shift?
They execute your bespoke Assignment Instructions. This typically involves randomized external foot patrols, verifying the integrity of doors and windows, checking for environmental hazards (like leaks or fire risks), and completing a Daily Occurrence Log.
Can your officers enforce our specific Health & Safety rules?
Yes. Our gatehouse and static guards act as the enforcers of your site rules. They will ensure all sub-contractors and drivers complete safety inductions and wear mandatory PPE before being allowed past the barrier.
What happens if our assigned security guard calls in sick?
Your Tewkesbury site is never left unprotected. Our 24/7 central control room monitors officer attendance in real-time. If a scheduled officer is unavailable, we instantly deploy a fully briefed standby officer from our local reserve pool.
Do your security officers carry communication equipment?
Yes. All our personnel are equipped with professional communication devices, ensuring they maintain constant contact with our 24/7 central control room and your designated on-site management team.
Can you provide security dog handlers for a large site near the M5?
Yes. For sprawling industrial perimeters, high-risk storage compounds, or sites facing chronic trespassing, we can deploy highly trained, SIA-licensed security dog handlers to provide an unparalleled psychological and physical deterrent.
Can your guards actively monitor our on-site CCTV screens in the gatehouse?
Yes. If your facility features a centralized monitoring desk or live CCTV screens, our on-site guards can actively monitor the camera feeds between their physical perimeter patrol cycles.
What is the minimum shift duration you will cover?
Our standard minimum deployment shift is 8 hours. This baseline ensures we can maintain high operational consistency and reliable scheduling for our professional security teams.
Is your company fully insured to operate in heavy industrial environments?
Yes. Eagle Security Protection Ltd holds comprehensive public and employer’s liability insurance that is specifically engineered to cover high-risk manned guarding, logistics, and industrial operations.
Do you supply security warning signs for our perimeter fences?
Yes. We provide high-visibility Eagle Security warning signage. Placing these on your gates and fences acts as a powerful 24/7 psychological deterrent to potential intruders, reinforcing the physical presence of our guards.
