Who we are
We stay on post so you can get on with the day
SWP Security Services started with two night patrols and a van. We now run static guarding, mobile patrols and remote camera monitoring across the region, mostly for clients who found us through someone we already work for.
Every officer is vetted, uniformed and briefed on your site before their first shift. Nothing is subcontracted out.
- Residential estates, apartment blocks and private homes
- Retail floors, warehouses, yards and construction sites
- Corporate receptions, car parks and out-of-hours cover
What we do
Six services, one point of contact
Most clients start with one and add others as the site changes. Everything is billed on the same account and reported in the same weekly summary.
Mobile Patrols
Marked vehicles running randomised visits through the night.
CCTV Monitoring
Your cameras, watched live from a staffed control room.
Access Control
Gate and door management with proper visitor records.
Event Security
Door supervision and crowd flow for venues and functions.
Alarm Response
We hold your keys and attend when the alarm sounds.
Site-specific cover
Cover built around your site, not a template
A retail unit on a high street and a fenced plant yard need different things. We walk the site first, write down where the weak points are, then price the smallest arrangement that actually closes them.
If a cheaper option will do the job, we say so. You get the assignment instructions in writing before anyone starts.
Radio-linked officers
Guards stay in contact with the control room on a dedicated channel.
Checked patrol points
Scan points around the site prove each round was walked in full.
Keyholding
Keys held in a graded safe, signed in and out on every use.
Shift reports
Incidents, visitors and faults logged and emailed the next morning.

How it starts
Four steps from first call to first shift
Straightforward sites can be covered within a week. Larger contracts take longer because the vetting and the site brief take longer.
Site walk
A manager visits, walks the perimeter with you and notes entry points, lighting, blind spots and existing camera coverage.
Written proposal
You get a plan with hours, officer numbers, patrol frequency and a fixed weekly cost. No obligation and no automatic renewal.
Officer briefing
Named officers are assigned and briefed on site. They meet your contact, learn the layout and read the assignment instructions.
Cover and reporting
Shifts begin. Reports arrive each morning and a manager reviews the contract with you at the end of the first month.
The control room
Someone is watching the feed at 3am
Cameras that nobody is looking at only help after the event. Our operators work the feeds live, in shifts, from a room that never closes. When motion triggers on a site out of hours, it lands on a screen in front of a person within seconds.
- Live challenge over site speakers before anything is taken
- Keyholder and police escalation on an agreed call list
- Footage exported and stored for you after every incident
- Works with most existing camera systems, no rip-and-replace

Before you sign
Things worth checking on any security firm
Vetting on file
Every officer is screened before deployment and the paperwork is available to you on request. We do not put unchecked staff on a site.
No subcontracting
The officers on your site are on our payroll. You are not paying a margin to an agency that then hires whoever is available.
Reports you can audit
Patrol scans, shift logs and incident reports are kept for twelve months and can be pulled for an insurer or a landlord.
The people
Who you will be dealing with
Small management team, long-serving officers. You get a direct number rather than a call centre.
Client feedback
What site managers tell us
We had three break-ins on the yard in one winter. SWP put a patrol on it in four days and moved the scan points to where the fence was actually being cut. Nothing since. The morning report is the part I did not expect to rely on, but I read it every day.
Rachel Kenner
Yard Manager, builders merchant
Our previous firm sent someone different every week and none of them knew where anything was. The two officers we have now have been on the reception desk for over a year. Residents know them by name, which has done more for complaints than any camera.
Denise Moraru
Block Manager, residential estate
They connected to the cameras we already had rather than selling us a new system, which is what everyone else quoted for. An operator caught someone in the loading bay at two in the morning and talked them off the site over the speaker before we even got the call.
Aaron Tsui
Facilities Lead, distribution centre
We only needed door cover for a four-day market, and they were the one firm that did not try to push us onto an annual contract. Officers arrived early, were polite with stallholders and handled two arguments without any of it turning into a scene.
Priya Lachlan
Event Coordinator, town market
Common questions
Answers before you call
If something here is not covered, the duty manager can usually answer it in a two-minute phone call.
+1 (000) 555-555For a straightforward mobile patrol, usually within three to five working days of you accepting the proposal. A static post takes a little longer because we brief named officers on site before the first shift rather than sending whoever is free.
No. Patrols and static cover run on a rolling monthly basis with thirty days notice either way. Event work is booked by the day. We do not use automatic renewals or exit fees.
In most cases yes. If your recorder supports a remote connection we can bring the feeds into the control room without replacing hardware. Older analogue-only systems sometimes need an encoder, which we will quote separately and clearly.
Cover is our responsibility, not yours. Each contract has at least two relief officers who have already been briefed on the site, so the replacement is someone who knows the layout rather than a stranger reading instructions at the gate.
Yes. Licences are checked at recruitment and re-checked before expiry, and public liability cover is in place for every deployment. Certificates are sent with the contract and reissued to your insurer on request.
A morning email after every shift with patrol times, scan points hit, and anything logged. Once a week that is rolled into a summary with hours worked against hours contracted, so the invoice never arrives as a surprise.
