About mobile patrols
Our mobile patrols service is designed to protect your business premises from intruders. We will ensure your premises are routinely visited and checked, providing a visible presence and a deterrent to criminals, especially during the twilight hours.
Security system technologies, such as cameras and alarms, are essential tools for preventing and recording crime, but they have their limitations. There are cases where your business may be better protected through reliable mobile patrol services. By investing in a fully managed security service, you will benefit from a robust, flexible and quick solution. The core of this service is all about providing the necessary human touch. Visible patrols will deter criminals and enable professional security personnel to respond to active incidents and investigate areas not detected by cameras or alarms. Security patrols are most effective when used in conjunction with technological security systems.
All our mobile patrol services in Ipswich utilise our electric fleet of vehicles to ensure a visible presence while helping to protect the environment. We can quickly get from one place to another, especially if the site is extensive, without polluting the air with unnecessary exhaust fumes! We will not only act as a deterrent but also be able to conduct swift action should we suspect suspicious or criminal activity is taking place.

While crime is sometimes unavoidable, businesses should always strive to minimise the risk of criminal activity. That starts with implementing effective crime prevention measures. Technology may prevent crime to a limited extent, but our mobile patrol security services can help take your protection to a whole new level. We believe the first step in a comprehensive security solution is to prevent crime whenever possible. Security patrols have been proven to reduce the risk of criminal activity, including theft, vandalism, and trespassing.
Thanks to marked cars and visible clothing, it is clear to anyone in the area that a security presence is in place. This sends a significant warning to criminals scouting the premises. It’s essential that a regular patrol is conducted and that certain areas, such as CCTV blind spots, are thoroughly investigated. We will always conduct risk assessments before undertaking a patrol job to determine the most effective security solutions to implement, identify weaknesses, and determine where our priorities should lie.
If an incident occurs, our security guards must be present to handle it appropriately. We will carry a set of keys so that, if required, we can access the premises and investigate any suspicious activity. Our guards are trained to the highest standards and prepared for any scenario, giving them the flexibility to handle a variety of situations. Should criminal activity be detected, we will follow applicable laws and industry regulations to bring the situation under control, which may involve deterring or apprehending trespassers and alerting emergency services.
Even after a situation has been brought under control and suspects detained, our work doesn’t stop there. We will remain at the premises to continue our work in protecting the vacant property and keeping a lookout. If a break-in has caused damage, we will secure the point of entry until the issue is rectified. As part of our mobile patrol services, we will also ensure that the premises are fully secured with windows closed and doors locked after you have closed for the day.
The key to an effective mobile patrol service is in the title. No matter what, we must be mobile! Our operations must be fully mobile to ensure an efficient and speedy security solution. It is vital that our guards can monitor and inspect the premises and surrounding perimeter at regular intervals, a point that is especially important on much larger sites. We understand the importance of covering as much ground as possible when protecting a site. This is where our fleet of vehicles comes into play.
Every mobile patrol job is carried out with the assistance of a Stage Security van. Our security personnel use these vans to quickly transport themselves from one place to another, allowing us to regularly patrol the site and better identify security lapses. If suspicious activity is detected, it’s imperative that we respond swiftly to investigate, eliminate risk, and limit any further damage to your business. Even better, our vehicles are fully electric, allowing us to contribute to the fight for a greener future and combat criminal activity.
Mobile patrols are a recommended security service for businesses that may be vulnerable and prone to criminal activity. In particular, it is an effective solution for business premises that are left vacant during certain times of the day, such as twilight. Any business could benefit from out-of-hours security, but common examples include warehouses, construction sites, educational facilities, retail units, commercial offices, docks, and plants. This is not an exhaustive list; please reach out to see whether mobile patrols are suitable for your business.
If cash, high-value items or personal information is stored on your premises, mobile guards will prevent significant loss to your business. However, it’s important to note that this service is not just about preventing criminal damage. Mobile guards will identify and resolve additional risks, such as fires, floods, and electrical hazards. We will limit the damage done to your business and ensure you remain fully operational the following day.
