Overview
All your core security services in one place
Remote security services use technology, live monitoring and clear procedures to protect your sites and people when you’re not there. They are ideal for locations that are empty at night, spread across the country, or costly to staff around the clock.
Typical needs include watching CCTV cameras, handling alarms, managing out of hours support, and keeping lone workers safe. We do this from our remote security operations centres (SOC), using trained operators, proven processes and reliable systems.
How we work
Integrated remote security built around you
Remote services can stand alone or support your on-site and mobile security. You might use remote CCTV monitoring at night, alarm monitoring for all your sites, incident management for business continuity, and lone worker protection for staff on the move.
We’ll help you choose the right mix, based on your risks, opening hours and budget. As your needs change, we can add or adjust services without major disruption.

-
We price remote services based on factors such as the number of sites, the type and volume of alarms, the number of cameras, the level of monitoring and any lone worker devices or apps. Our aim is to provide a solution that balances risk reduction and cost. We’ll explain the pricing structure clearly and can offer different options so you can choose what works best.
-
Yes. Many clients use remote services alongside on-site officers and mobile patrols. For example, our operators can verify alarms and video events, then coordinate with your on-site team or mobile response. This combination often gives stronger protection and better use of resources.
-
Not always. In some cases, remote services can reduce the need for on-site staff, especially at quiet times or low-risk sites. In other cases, they work best as a support to on-site officers and mobile patrols. We’ll be honest about where remote services are enough on their own and where a blended approach is safer.

Rising manpower costs make a case for remote security
The recent Budget reminded us that - from April – National Insurance rates for employees and employers will rise, and so will the Living Wage. These increases in the price of labour mean now is a good time to consider electronic and remote security solutions as a long term flexible and often a considerably cheaper alternative to man-guarding.
