Security Services in Redhill
Redhill’s busier than people give it credit for. The town centre has its own police crackdown, the station’s had joint drugs operations, and Holmethorpe is the biggest industrial estate in the borough. At Alpha Security Services, we provide security services in Redhill across every one of those. As Redhill security services go, we cover the lot: SIA-licensed officers on shop doors, gatehouses, building sites and event gates, with event security in Redhill for anything from the Arts Takeover to a wedding. Every patrol is GPS-logged and run from one control room, and 98% of our clients stay with us. Call 023 8111 2814 and we’ll come and walk your site.

Why Choose Alpha Security Services?
Innovative Security Solutions at Your Fingertips
Third-party guard management software lets us, and you, see who’s on, where they are and what’s been checked across our security guarding services in Redhill. Set a task or read a report from your phone. Nobody needs chasing.
Kit-wise, every officer has a radio, a reporting handset and a body camera. Every patrol point gets a GPS scan, so security patrolling in Redhill leaves a timed record at each stop, from the Belfry to Holmethorpe. A missed checkpoint flags straight away.
A Commitment to Excellence in Every Detail
A Saturday afternoon shop door and a silent warehouse at 4am are different shifts entirely. Our security guards in Redhill are trained for both, and for the awkward bits in between: the customer who’s had a few, the shoplifter who runs, the driver in a hurry.
Every officer has Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) and fire safety training completed before they start. Our professional security services in Redhill keep that standard on every site.
Deep Industry Expertise You Can Trust
Since 2021 we’ve learned where each type of business tends to come unstuck. Industrial security in Redhill usually breaks down at a busy gate when checks get skipped to keep lorries moving. Shops lose most to the same handful of repeat thieves. Late venues struggle with drink.
As a manned guarding company in Redhill, we keep a written procedure for each, and officers are briefed on yours before they start.
Dependable Security, Anytime, Anywhere
Officers clock on by GPS as each shift begins. If nobody’s clocked on at your site, the control room is already arranging cover.
When an alarm goes off, our alarm response in Redhill puts an officer on site within 45 minutes of activation. Add key holding services in Redhill and nobody from your team gets a 3am phone call. Patrol vehicles work the A23, the A25 and junction 8 of the M23 and M25.
What Our Redhill Clients Say
“As a wedding venue in the Town Centre Quarter area, we regularly face challenges around uninvited guests and late-night crowd management. Alpha Security’s wedding event security guards have become a reliable part of our events team. They manage the evening changeover professionally and close the venue safely at the end of the night.”
“Managing the security of a fast-moving logistics hub in Holmethorpe Industrial requires guards who can work under pressure without cutting corners. Alpha Security provides exactly that. Their team handles high-volume vehicle movements efficiently, maintains access logs in real time, and monitors the yard during peak processing hours.”
“Alpha Security provides security for our High Street research facility, where the protection of proprietary materials and sensitive research is critical. Their guards manage badge verification, monitor laboratory access corridors, and maintain a log that meets our compliance requirements.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What security services in Redhill do you cover?
Most things, really. We provide security services in Redhill, across Surrey and the rest of the UK, and there are 21 specialist security services we can draw on.
The bulk of it is guards and door staff, with key holding, alarm calls and visits to empty buildings alongside. We spend a lot of time on building sites and in warehouses and yards, usually on the gate. Shops and hotels are regulars. So are pubs. Every so often it’s a school or a pharmacy. And events, from a works party to a weekend festival. If yours doesn’t fit a box, ring us anyway.
Is Redhill town centre actually getting safer?
There’s a lot of effort going in, put it that way. The Safer Redhill partnership between the council, Surrey Police and YMCA East Surrey used £265,000 of government Safer Streets money on an 18-month push using the “Clear, Hold, Build” approach. They reported 155 arrests, 93 charges and a combined 25 years of prison sentences. Plain-clothes officers worked nights, and there were joint drugs operations at the station aimed at county lines.
That helps the whole town. It doesn’t stand on your door though. Our security guards in Redhill look after your entrance and your staff, and they pass anything useful straight to the police.
What can you do about behaviour around our shop in the pedestrianised area?
A fair amount, but there are limits. Redhill’s Public Space Protection Order covers the pedestrianised shopping area, Memorial Park, the railway underpass and the Clarendon Road car park. It targets threatening behaviour, verbal abuse, urinating in public, littering and spitting, and anyone who won’t stop when an authorised officer asks can get a fixed penalty. The council consulted on renewing it over summer 2026.
Our officers aren’t authorised under that order, so no fines. What private security guards in Redhill can do is keep your doorway clear, refuse entry and write up exactly what happened, times and all. When the same people keep coming back, those records give the council and police something solid to act on.
What do we need for event security in Redhill if we're using a council park?
Paperwork first. Reigate and Banstead Borough Council wants a site-specific risk assessment, a copy of your public liability insurance and a site plan for any event in its parks, plus an event plan where it makes sense. The event can’t go ahead until the council confirms in writing that it has everything. Selling alcohol? That’s a Temporary Event Notice or a premises licence on top.
That’s why we like being involved early. Event security in Redhill works best when gates, bag checks, crowd numbers and the way out are written into the plan from day one. For bars and shops near the Arts Takeover venues in September, security for events in Redhill might just mean an extra door supervisor on the busy nights.
What do Redhill security guard services look like at Holmethorpe?
Gate by day, fence by night. Holmethorpe is the borough’s largest industrial estate, split between Holmethorpe itself and Foxboro Park, with the relief road bringing traffic in from the A23. Wells Place and Kingsfield Business Centre sit nearby with storage, distribution and light industry.
Manned guarding in Redhill on estates like these comes down to logging every vehicle, checking delivery notes against the load and making sure whoever leaves last actually locked up. Commercial security in Redhill also means watching the unit next door, because thieves often test an empty neighbour first. Security for commercial properties in Redhill always starts with a site walk, and our risk mitigation services in Redhill come from what we find. If a better lock solves it, we’ll tell you.
Can you protect hospital-adjacent and healthcare sites near Earlswood?
We can. East Surrey Hospital means there are surgeries, pharmacies, care homes and medical offices all around Earlswood and Redhill. These sites need officers who are calm with vulnerable people and strict about who goes where.
Our officers manage reception and visitor logs, keep restricted areas restricted, walk car parks at night and know the difference between a confused patient and a genuine threat. Protective security officers in Redhill on sites like these get a specific brief before their first shift, agreed with your manager in writing.
Can you keep an eye on empty buildings around Redhill?
We do a lot of that. Shops between tenants, offices waiting on redevelopment, units on the estates and houses awaiting sale all come up around Redhill.
Vacant property security in Redhill means visits at different times and a proper check inside and out on every one. Private property security in Redhill suits owners who live elsewhere, and we can hold keys so nobody’s driving over at 2am when the alarm goes. Residents’ groups and block managers use community security in Redhill for shared car parks and bin stores, and our community security services in Redhill can be split across several households. Property security in Redhill is really someone turning up, checking properly and telling you what they found.
Should we pay for security patrols in Redhill or a guard on site?
Depends what happens after hours. A locked unit, a shut office or a house while you’re away usually just needs security patrols in Redhill, which cost a fraction of a guard. No two visits land at the same time. Doors, windows and fences get checked, and every stop is logged with GPS and a photo.
If you’ve got stock moving, staff working, cash or customers around, you want someone there in person. Lots of clients mix it: a guard in the day, patrols at night.
How soon can you get guards to a Redhill site?
Usually the same day. Ring in the morning and we can often have someone with you by the afternoon. After a break-in, or when another firm’s officer hasn’t turned up, emergency cover gets to you within 2 to 4 hours. Booked cover usually starts a day or two after we’ve agreed what you need.
You can hire security guards in Redhill for a night, a season or long term, with no long tie-in. If an alarm turns out to be a real break-in, our officer calls Surrey Police, keeps the scene as it is and stays until the building’s secure. Call 023 8111 2814, or fill in the form and we’ll email back within 4 working hours.
Will the Harlequin rebuild and station plans bring more building work?
Probably, yes. The Harlequin has been closed since September 2023, and construction on the RAAC removal could start as early as November 2026 and take up to 15 months, so reopening looks like 2028. Around the station, a scheme for up to 255 homes was refused in October 2024, but the site’s still earmarked for development.
Town centre sites get more foot traffic than out-of-town ones, so they’re harder to keep tight. A gate officer while the contractors are on site and a patrol after they’ve gone is the usual mix. Once flats open, the same team can stay on for concierge cover and security for residential properties in Redhill.
