This case study highlights how our dedicated services have met and exceeded the client’s expectations.
The Objective
A full-service, top-rated law firm in East Anglia required a dependable and professional security provider to protect its high-value offices, sensitive information, and staff. The firm’s key objectives were:
- Secure the premises during and outside working hours, including effective lockups and alarm management.
- Ensure rapid and professional alarm response to protect confidential materials and legal assets.
- Introduce visible security presence to deter criminal activity and unauthorised access.
- Reduce reliance on internal staff for security-related duties, particularly outside of regular office hours.
- Access flexible security coverage, including ad hoc manned guarding during high-risk or high-profile periods.
The Solution
Stage Security developed and implemented a customised security solution tailored to the law firm’s needs, balancing discretion, professionalism, and effectiveness:
- Lock-Ups and Alarm Management: Our officers handle daily lock-ups and alarming of the premises, following strict protocols to ensure the building is secured to the highest standard at the end of each working day.
- Key Holding & Alarm Response: We manage secure key holding and provide 24/7 alarm response services. In the event of an alarm activation, our trained mobile officers are dispatched immediately to investigate and report.
- Mobile Patrols: Routine and random patrols are conducted to provide a visible deterrent, check access points, and ensure the physical integrity of the site.
- Ad-Hoc Manned Guarding: During sensitive periods — such as high-profile cases, office refurbishments, or after-hours client meetings — we deploy vetted, professional security guards to provide on-site presence and access control.
- Real-Time Incident Reporting: All activities, including alarm responses, patrols, and lock-ups, are logged digitally and shared with the client, ensuring complete transparency and compliance.
