Frequently Asked Questions
What Happens When You Start Patrols On A New Site?
Every new contract starts with a site assessment, so we understand your premises and the risks around it, such as public access routes, blind spots or nearby events. We then agree your patrol plan with you, and you have final sign-off before anything begins. You’ll meet the management team coordinating your security and have a dedicated point of contact throughout. Once patrols start, you can view site reports and contact your account manager through our client portal .
How Much Do Mobile Security Patrols Cost?
There’s no fixed price for mobile patrols, because every contract is bespoke to your site. The cost depends on how many visits you need, when they happen, how large your premises are and whether you add services such as keyholding or alarm response . We’ll start by understanding your site and the risks it faces, then build a patrol plan around them. Get in touch with our team for a free, no-obligation quote based on what your site actually needs.
Mobile patrols or a static guard?
A static guard stays at a fixed point such as the gate; a mobile patrol visits at agreed or random times. Patrols suit quieter or spread-out sites, and many warehouses use a static guard by day with patrols overnight.
Are your officers SIA licensed?
Yes. Every officer holds a front-line licence from the Security Industry Authority and is vetted and screened to BS 7858. ProFM Group is also an SIA Approved Contractor, which you can check on the SIA’s public register.
