Security guards and manned guarding in London

Security guards for your premises, with duties and hours agreed around your site. Warlite provides short- and long-term manned guarding across London and the M25 area.

Uniformed Warlite security officer

On-site security

An officer where your site needs one

Warlite provides static security guards for workplaces and public buildings. We agree the manned guarding duties and hours for each site.

Static guarding

For organisations that need security officers on site during agreed hours. Tell us where cover is needed and what the role must include.

Reception and front-of-house

Security officers can fulfil reception and front-of-house roles where required. We will discuss how the role fits your premises and the responsibilities of the post.

Gatehouse security

Gatehouse roles form part of manned guarding. Access arrangements and the responsibilities at the gatehouse are agreed for each site.

Short- and long-term cover

Choose permanent or long-term guarding, or discuss a short-term requirement. Share your start date, expected duration and hours so we can discuss the contract.

Applications

Guarding for workplaces and public buildings

Warlite works with corporate offices, warehouses and logistics premises, industrial sites, construction sites and public buildings. We also work with healthcare, education and local authority organisations.

Each site needs its own brief. We agree the guarding duties and hours around how your premises operate.

Your guarding brief

Arrange cover around your premises

Tell us what you need

Send the site address and postcode, type of premises, intended start date and expected contract length. Specify the days and hours of cover, how many posts need an officer at the same time, and any reception, front-of-house or gatehouse duties.

Agree the scope

Discuss the duties for each post, site access arrangements and the hours when an officer must be present. Tell us who the site contact will be and what reporting you require. We will confirm availability and the scope of the guarding quote.

Need visits rather than an on-site post?

If you are considering visits instead of a staffed post, explore mobile security patrols. For key holding and alarm response contracts, see key holding and alarm response. You can compare the options in our services hub.

Before arranging on-site cover

What is the difference between static guarding and mobile patrols?

Static security guards attend an agreed post at your premises. Mobile patrols involve visits rather than a continuously staffed post. The appropriate option depends on when and where you need an officer present.

Are reception and gatehouse duties separate services?

Reception, front-of-house and gatehouse duties can be included in a manned guarding role. Describe the duties you need so we can agree the responsibilities for your site.

What information is needed for a guarding quote?

Include the postcode, type of premises, days and hours of cover, number of posts, start date and expected contract length. Describe the duties and access arrangements. Warlite will confirm availability and discuss the scope before the contract is agreed.
