Security Company Coventry: Guards Deployed in 60 Minutes
Coventry sites in logistics, automotive and retail face plant theft, fuel siphoning and vandalism. Across Nuneaton, Rugby and Leamington Spa, contractors need fast cover. Eagle Security can place SIA-licensed guards on your site within 60 minutes so work continues safely without costly delays.
The Cost of Site Crime & Downtime in Coventry
From city-centre refurbishments to logistics parks at Ansty and Prologis Park, Coventry projects are exposed to plant and fuel theft, cable stripping, trespass and vandalism. If controls lapse, small incidents snowball into stoppages, rework and missed milestones.
Plant, Fuel & Cable Theft
Excavators, generators and copper are prime targets. Each loss triggers delays, replacements and insurer friction.
Vandalism & Fly-Tipping
Damage and dumped waste force clean-ups, HSE reporting and programme resets. A common cause of late handovers.
Trespass, Protest & Liability
Uncontrolled access increases H&S exposure, potential fines and reputational risk with neighbours and clients.
Unplanned Downtime
Every unguarded hour risks schedule slippage, standing charges and missed milestones on 24/7 builds.
