Why Frontline

Big enough for the whole UK. Small enough to answer to a Director.

National firms can feel like a call centre. Local outfits can't cover your estate. We're built to do both: nine regional teams working to one standard, with a Director personally overseeing every contract, from the first survey to the hundredth shift.

Always deliver what we promise. If in doubt, under-promise and over-deliver.

The Frontline Code
  • A Director on every contract

    You get a named Director and a direct line, never a call centre. They know your site, your officers and your risks, and they answer for the service.

  • Licensed, vetted, properly trained

    Every officer holds a valid SIA licence and is screened to BS7858. We work to BS7499 for guarding, BS7960 for door supervision and BS8406 for events.

  • Local teams, one standard

    Officers who know your area, backed by one ISO 9001 quality system and a 24/7 control room in Leeds that watches over every shift.

  • You see what you pay for

    Site-specific assignment instructions, real-time attendance monitoring, incident reports, spot checks and regular KPI reviews with you.

Services

Every kind of cover. One accountable team.

Static or mobile, one night or a multi-year contract. Tell us the risk and we'll design the response, then put the right people on it.

Results

Measured in incidents that never happen.

Good security pays for itself. Two examples of what happens when the right people are in the right place.

National food wholesaler · Mobile patrols

Shadowing high-value deliveries

Delivery vehicles were being targeted, and each burglary cost £20,000 to £80,000. Our branded patrol vehicles followed every wagon while stock was on board, and we worked alongside local police on Operation Ash. Over six months, just four incidents were reported.

Protecting a Grade II-listed campus

A historic city-centre campus open to the public was suffering anti-social behaviour, theft and vandalism. We created a concierge security role: one welcoming point of contact, first response to incidents and regular, random patrols. The role has since grown to include car park management.

Local officers. National reach.

FAQs

Straight answers.

Can't see your question? Call 0800 334 5687 or email info@frontlinesecurity247ltd.co.uk.

Are your officers SIA-licensed and vetted?

Yes. Every frontline officer holds a valid SIA licence and is screened to BS7858. Frontline is an SIA Approved Contractor (ACS reference FRSE24SC01) for security guarding, door supervision and key holding, so our standards are independently assessed. You can check our approval on the SIA register (opens in a new tab).

How quickly can you put officers on site?

Often the same or next day, depending on location and availability. For emergencies we keep a flexible rapid-response team. Call 0800 334 5687 at any time, day or night.

Which areas do you cover?

The whole of the UK. Our head office and 24/7 control room are in Leeds, with regional offices in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham, Cardiff, London and Windsor.

What happens at the free site survey?

A member of our team visits the location of your choice, walks the site with you and looks at the real risks. You then get an expert recommendation and a clear quotation. There's no cost and no obligation.

Do you provide short-term or one-off cover?

Yes. We support short-notice, ad-hoc and unplanned requirements as well as long-term contracts, from a single event or night shift to multi-site, multi-year agreements.

What accreditations do you hold?

SIA Approved Contractor status, ISO 9001 certification through SSAIB (UKAS-accredited), CHAS, SafeContractor, Constructionline approval, CIRAS membership, NASDU associate membership and ICO registration (ZA094826).

How do you keep standards high on site?

Every site has its own assignment instructions. We monitor attendance in real time, supervise and carry out welfare checks, run spot checks and audits, and review KPIs with you regularly. Officers keep training through ongoing CPD and refresher courses.
