Security staffing, sized to the site.

Four ways to book MK Security. Every booking starts with the hours, posts and duties written down and agreed.

Events

Event security

For fairs, festivals, tastings, markets and private events. We staff guards and supervisors to your event plan, handle entry and ID checks, and stay through close-down.

Every event is planned fresh. Staffing from a past year is a starting point, not a copy, because crowds, layouts and licences change.

Overnight

Overnight security

Patrol

Mobile patrols and alarm response

For sites that don't need a guard all night but shouldn't sit unchecked. Our marked patrol vehicle visits on a set schedule, at random times, or when your alarm company calls, and every visit is logged.

What our guards do, and what they don't

Clear duties up front means no surprises on the night.

Guards will

  • Stay on post and patrol the agreed route
  • Control entry, check IDs and keep visitor logs
  • Check doors, gates, lighting and alarms
  • Call 911 and your contact when something happens
  • Write a report for every shift and every incident

Guards won't

  • Act as police or chase people off site
  • Leave the post unattended without telling you
  • Take on duties that weren't agreed, like cash handling
  • Use force except to protect themselves or others
