There are occasions when you may need to arrange short term security measures to protect a commercial premises.

It might be necessary to safeguard a construction site or an empty property, such as a shop. It might even be for a one-off event.

You might only require the equipment for a few weeks or months. Regardless of the timeframe, site security can be a major challenge, which should always be a top priority. The impact of theft, vandalism and wanton damage to unprotected construction sites alone in this country runs into hundreds of millions of pounds every year.

If you operate a commercial site or premises anywhere throughout the Greater Midlands area and require ad hoc security to protect plant, materials and the general infrastructure, it’s good to know that you can rely on professional, locally based support.

We aren’t talking about manned security here. In fact, it’s probably advisable to stay away from using manpower, as this can be extremely expensive. Far better to let technology do the heavy lifting for you!

The temporary arrangements we would utilise provide a range of independent and portable security solutions, offering round-the-clock cover at extremely cost-effective rates.

It may cost you as little as £485 – far less than using manned security or, worse still, leaving the site unprotected and vulnerable to break-ins.

What type of equipment do we install?

As a company that’s been around for over 40 years, we’ve assisted a wide range of commercial operators with their security arrangements, across the public and private sectors. Our clientele includes many building firms often needing rapid but temporary security during on-site construction and fit outs.

The range of equipment would extend to intruder alarms, access control systems, security cameras, fire alarms and CCTV systems. You may not need it all, of course, and the amount and type of kit required would always be tailored to the specifics of the project.

Say you are developing a construction site, where it is necessary to move the security equipment around as the project comes together. The systems we deploy are fully portable, to ensure that you have security coverage in the exact places where it is required.

Justice Fire & Security will also provide a flexible short-term security contract – so you aren’t locked into a lengthy and possibly unnecessary agreement. Once the project is finished and assuming you no longer require our services, we will come and remove the installation.

Flexible solutions and free site surveys

If you find yourself needing temporary security for a building site or vacant premises, we undertake detailed free site surveys of all commercial premises. From this, we’ll recommend the most practical and cost-effective commercial security system.

The equipment can be installed within a matter of hours, so the site can be properly secured almost immediately.

In which geographical areas do you provide temporary security?

As a fully accredited systems provider, we generally cover a 50-mile radius of Birmingham City Centre, covering major conurbations like Wolverhampton, Lichfield, Coventry, Stoke and Telford – in effect the counties of Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Leicestershire and Northamptonshire.
