Construction Site Security

Construction site security that protects your programme

Theft of plant, tools, fuel and materials doesn’t just cost you the kit. It costs you days on the programme, insurance headaches and awkward conversations with the client. An unsecured site is also a magnet for trespassers, and if someone gets hurt on your site after hours, it’s your problem.

At Octagon Risk Management, we provide construction site security guards who understand how a live site works. From controlling the gate during the working day to locking down the compound overnight and at weekends, our officers become part of your site team, work to your site rules and keep your project moving.

We look after construction sites of all sizes across Leicester, Leicestershire and the wider Midlands, from small residential developments to large commercial builds.

Frequently asked questions

Can you provide security for the whole build programme?

Yes. We can cover a site from groundworks through to handover, and scale the number of officers up or down as the site and the risk change.

Do you offer overnight and weekend cover only?

Absolutely. Many contractors only need security outside working hours, so we cover evenings, nights, weekends and shutdown periods.

Can you cover a site at short notice after a break-in?

Wherever we possibly can. Our operations team works 24/7/365, so call us and we’ll tell you honestly how quickly we can get an officer to site.

How much does construction site security cost?

Every site is different, so we don’t publish a price list. The cost depends on the number of officers, the hours you need covered and the length of the contract. We provide a clear, no-obligation quotation with no hidden extras.

Are your security officers SIA licensed?

Yes. Every officer holds the correct SIA licence for the role and is screened to BS7858 before deployment.

We also provide security for logistics and warehousing, hotels and hospitality, offices and commercial property, manufacturing and industrial, vacant and void property, student accommodation, schools, colleges and universities, healthcare and solar farms and energy sites.
