Manned Guarding and Security Services in Telford

Telford is a distribution town before anything else. Three M54 junctions feed Stafford Park, Halesfield, and Hortonwood, three of the largest industrial estates in the West Midlands, and the stock sitting in those units overnight is exactly what organised vehicle crime targets. Retail risk concentrates around the Telford Centre and Southwater, where footfall stays high seven days a week. The Telford International Centre adds a different problem entirely: thousands of exhibition visitors arriving and leaving in tight windows, with high-value kit on the floor between show days.

Our security services in Telford cover manned guarding, gatehouse control, warehouse security, retail security, mobile patrols, and keyholding with alarm response. Industrial clients on Stafford Park and Halesfield use our officers for access control, HGV gate checks, and out-of-hours patrols. Retail sites bring us in for theft prevention and staff safety during trading hours. For exhibitions and events, we supply stewards and SIA door supervisors who have worked venue crowds before, not guards seeing the site for the first time on the day.

Every officer we place is vetted to BS 7858 and briefed on the specific site before their first shift. We work within West Mercia Police reporting procedures and Telford & Wrekin Council licensing requirements, which matters if your premises trade late or host licensed events.

New towns have old crime patterns. Our teams know how fast a loaded vehicle can be off an estate and onto the M54, which units back onto unlit access roads, and how show days at the International Centre change parking and pedestrian flow across the town centre. That is what 15 years of Telford security work teaches you.

Whether you need one guard at a single premises or cover across multiple sites, Alpha Security Services builds the plan around your building, your hours, and your budget. Call us for a site assessment and a quote within 24 hours.
