About Mobile Patrols
Mobile patrols give you a visible security presence without paying for a static guard 24/7. Providers send marked vehicles to your site at scheduled or randomised intervals — typically 1-6 visits per night — with each visit logged via GPS and photo. Most offer optional alarm response, key-holding, and lock/unlock services to bundle the same vehicle network into a fuller out-of-hours product.
Common use cases
- Multiple sites needing weekly or nightly drive-bys
- Empty office at evenings and weekends
- Retail park managed by a single property team
- Construction site between guarding shifts
- Out-of-hours estate management
What to look for in a provider
- Patrols logged with timestamped GPS plus on-site photos
- Marked vehicles and uniformed SIA-licensed officers
- Reasonable response time after an alarm trigger (< 30 min in metro, < 60 min rural)
- Coverage of your county at unsocial hours, not just office hours
- ACS-approved or NSI-approved patrol provider
