CONSTRUCTION SITE SECURITY

With a wealth of experience in protecting construction sites across the UK, A-Z Security understands the vulnerability of the construction industry. With materials and equipment routinely left overnight, it is easy to see why sites are a regular target for thieves.

Experienced guards continually patrolling site perimeters day and night offer a visual deterrent to potential perpetrators, including staff with a legitimate reason to be on-site.

In addition to theft, vandalism can be an equal concern with the potential to delay projects and incur large expenses. As sites may have multiple points of entry, children often use them as a playground, bringing a further risk. Effective guarding is endorsed by most insurers and lowers premiums and legal exposure.

FAQs

  • Why are construction sites targeted?

    Construction sites are targeted due to the presence of high-value assets, equipment, and tools. They typically have open access points, and easy vehicular entry makes them vulnerable to unauthorised access, especially during out-of-working hours and weekends.

  • What qualifications do your security guards have?

    Our building site security guards have a Security Industry Authority (SIA) licence, the industry gold benchmark for security personnel. We also provide online courses to enhance their expertise in first aid and health & safety, ensuring specific training where needed.

  • How much does construction site security cost?

    The cost of construction site security can vary depending on several factors, such as the complexity and size of the site, the level of security required, the duration of the project, and specific client needs.

    Contact our knowledgeable team to discuss your building site security requirements and explore the options available. Our objective is to deliver everything you need to operate a secure and safe site.


  • What is included in a site risk assessment?

    A site risk assessment goes beyond checklists and insurance requirements, enabling construction site managers to identify key risks and make informed decisions regarding mitigation strategies. The process typically includes the following:

    1. Conduct a thorough site inspection to identify both primary and secondary risks.

    2. Document the severity of each risk and the possible problems it may present.

    3. Determine the most critical risks to site operations and establish a prioritised list.

    4. Collaborate with a security professional to identify the most effective security measures to eliminate the identified risks, considering all options.

    5. Implement appropriate security strategies based on the findings and regularly review them, especially when there are changes in site operations.
