CCTV and controlled access can be very effective in safeguarding a place, but nothing substitutes the power of a human presence. Manned guarding, also called static guarding, protects your property against damage, robbery or intruders. Our guards, using the most modern types of equipment, also work as a very effective deterrent against aggressors.
Mobile security patrols are specialised in supervising extensive areas, multiple locations and areas that aren't easily accessible. Stage Security has been delivering mobile security solutions for several companies in Cambridge. Our security personnel use outdoor security techniques, vehicles and foot patrols to ensure your sites are adequately secured. Our on-the-go patrols are highly skilled and experienced.
Installing an alarm is only one step in protecting a venue. Once the alarm is set off, a rapid response is crucial to avoid damage to your property and catch intruders. Our alarm response team is trained to respond immediately to alarms. The crew can also identify if the warning was triggered by accident, evaluate the presence of other threats and permanently secure the area until the arrival of the police.
Our venue security service can help businesses by controlling who accesses the facility, mediating conflicts between patrons, and managing the crowd in case of heated arguments and fights. It also gives your team the peace of mind they need to perform at their highest level. Our crew is SIA-licensed, highly trained and rigorously vetted. They also have the friendly yet confident approach that you need.
Stage Security has a successful history of event security in Cambridge and other significant events in the UK. We can provide a professional team for your occasion whenever and wherever you need it. Before your event in Cambridge, our experts will visit the venue to prepare a security plan. Everything, from where to position our stewards to how to evacuate an arena in case of an emergency, is part of this planning.
Providing security for festivals is a complex task that should be carried out only by the most experienced Cambridge security companies. We have many years of experience protecting visitors and UK festival staff. We can provide crowd management services and protection for VIPs and artists. Furthermore, our team offers customers a detailed plan to avoid overcrowding and environmental hazards.
Transporting cash is one of the most dangerous activities in the security industry. Stage Security has been doing it for many years, so we are fully prepared to protect your property at this crucial moment. We provide security for your staff in car parks, sports centres, licensed premises, shops, supermarkets and more. On top of that, our service is fully flexible and tailored to your needs.
Secure your site on your schedule with our locking & unlocking service in Cambridge. This service provides 24/7 emergency lockout response and controlled access, relieving keyholders of responsibility. Our trained officers arrive as arranged, verify who’s due in, grant access, remain until everyone has departed, and then secure the site.

— House Manager, Ipswich Regent Theatre
"Thank you to your two guys who were patrolling Christchurch Park today. They were very friendly and approachable. They took time to speak to the young people who were enjoying being in the park. As a parent it is very reassuring that they are in the park, and if there is any problems people know that they can approach them and they are there to help!"
— Lisa Cooper
"May I take this opportunity to say thank you, it has been a pleasure dealing with you and the company. Also, we all wanted to pass on our personal thanks to David who was such a nice person and he did such a good job giving us such peace of mind (and a much needed break every night after such long days!)."
— Katrina Robertson, Whitton Parish
"Kieran was the best front-of-house SIA security staff member we have worked with for years. He was attentive in what was going on, helpful and approachable with the customers. The little jobs I often have to remind staff to do just happened without prompt, he wasn't in a rush to leave for his later job, and he wasn't constantly on his phone in front of the customers."
— Shaun Whymark, Ipswich Regent Theatre
"I would like to thank Adam Howes and his team for their work and support at Suffolk Pride 2019. They brought their professional expertise and clear understanding of our needs to our event.

Thank you once again."
— Michael Marriott, Stowmarket Town Council

We are a leading security company in Cambridge and have provided services for numerous businesses around the area. Here are a few examples of some of the previous work the Stage Security team has completed.
FDS has continued to exceed client expectations in offering premium home goods at affordable prices since 2008. Based at Port One Logistics Park in Great Blakenham, FDS import thousands of household products through the Port of Felixstowe. As the business expanded, they wanted to partner with a trusted local security provider capable of meeting their requirements. Stage has supported the business since 2022.
Ipswich’s annual Music in the Park festival (also known as Ipswich Music Day) takes place on the first Sunday of July each year. One of the largest, free, one-day music events in the country, it is held at Christchurch Park. Stage Security was approached by the organisers and asked to provide on-site security. The organisers wanted to develop a robust site security plan that would minimise public risk and make provision for issues such as lost persons/property, first aid, and potential access by emergency service vehicles.
The Riverside Centre is a popular licensed venue in Chelmsford, offering a variety of events and leisure pursuits. We provide effective door supervision and venue security consultancy.
Clacton Air Show is an annual event held between Clacton Pier and the Martello Tower. Typically, the two-day event attracts audiences of around 200,000. Recognising a need to maintain a safe public environment, Tendering District Council appointed Stage Security to provide SIA-licensed security staff to help manage the event on the day and to provide overnight security for the event arena, the exhibitors and their goods.
