Construction site security

SECURITY SERVICES IN LONDON

Construction sites change as work progresses. Orion provides construction-site security in London, with arrangements planned around the site layout, access points, workforce and the stage of the project.

Security that follows the site’s working arrangements

An assignment can support controlled access, observation of agreed areas and reporting of activity outside normal patterns. We discuss the relationship between the security team, site management, contractors and delivery personnel so that responsibilities are clear.

What the assignment can include

  • Managing agreed gatehouse and access procedures
  • Checking visitors, contractors and delivery arrivals
  • Patrolling designated areas where included
  • Observing and reporting damage, suspicious activity or unsecured access
  • Keeping site logs and following the agreed escalation process

Plan your service

Provide the location, project phase, operating hours, access layout and areas requiring attention. We discuss site induction, relevant hazards, reporting contacts and changes expected during the assignment. Any static guarding, mobile patrol, lock-up or dog-handling requirement is considered separately and included only where agreed.

Adapt to each project stage

Security arrangements should reflect changes in the project. Temporary entrances, contractor numbers, delivery routes and the location of materials can change over time. Tell us when the site layout or working hours change so the assignment can be reviewed. Unoccupied areas and parts of the site still under construction require particular attention to safe access.

Set practical site boundaries

Discuss inductions, welfare access, protective equipment requirements and any areas the assignment must not enter. The scope should distinguish security duties from site-management decisions, plant operation and specialist safety responsibilities. Agree how observations are reported to the site manager and who can authorise access outside normal working hours.

Questions about construction site security

Can you cover a site outside working hours?

Tell us the periods when security is required. Availability, shift arrangements and the scope of the proposed cover are confirmed before the assignment.

Can the arrangements change as construction progresses?

Yes. Changes to entrances, boundaries, working areas and hours should be reported and reflected in updated assignment instructions.
