The Importance of Manned Guarding

At Veritech Security, we recognise the vital role that manned guarding plays in today’s security landscape. Here’s why it remains essential:
  • Crime Deterrence: The visible presence of professional security personnel acts as a strong deterrent to theft, vandalism, and other criminal activity.
  • Immediate Response: Our licensed, highly trained guards are always alert and prepared to respond swiftly to security breaches. Their quick action helps prevent escalation and ensures the safety of your premises.
  • Enhanced Surveillance: While technology is crucial, human judgment and intuition are irreplaceable. Our manned guards assess situations in real time and make informed decisions that automated systems simply can't match.
  • Customer Service Support: Our guards often double as front-line customer service representatives—offering directions, assisting visitors, and creating a safe, welcoming environment. This dual role not only strengthens security but also enhances the overall experience for staff and guests.
  • Tailored Security Solutions: We understand that every site has unique security needs. That’s why we provide customised manned guarding services, whether for office buildings, retail stores, construction sites, or industrial facilities.
Manned guarding remains a cornerstone of effective security strategies. At Veritech Security, we are committed to delivering high-quality, reliable guarding services—backed by experienced professionals and comprehensive solutions—to safeguard your people and assets.

Hourly Security Guard Patrols

We believe in a preventative deterrent approach to security. Our SIA licensed security guards actively conduct patrols on-site, ensuring any potential unauthorised access, security breaches or issues are identified and dealt with before any opportunity for vandalism, criminal activity, or damage arises.

Ex-military personnel

We provide security guarding using highly vetted personnel from ex-military backgrounds. Site visits and security audits are available on request. During these, one of our trained security specialists will identify weak points and build a personalised plan.

Trained Fire Evacuation Wardens

Tailored Fire Marshall training courses conducted in-house by a highly qualified fire-managed trainer. All our officers meet the standards of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, ensuring clients are protected from HSE incidents.

Private Residential Security Guard

We offer a bespoke Manned Guarding service to clients across Hampshire, London, and surrounding counties. We provide security solutions tailored to our client's needs to offer complete peace of mind to you and your property.

Lone Worker Guard Protection

All our guards are equipped with 4G radios, GPS tracking, and a direct line to our 24/7 control centre with a single button to trigger an emergency event and the ability to communicate with the emergency services simultaneously. We use a real-time guard patrol system linked to our security guard scheduling system.

Bespoke Security Protection

We can provide permanent and temporary security solutions backed by our 24/7 team. We have you covered from singular shifts to large sites requiring complex, large-scale security guarding. Where relevant, we will recommend our other security solutions, from CCTV to Access Control, maximising every possible angle of defence for your business or project.
