The challenge
What actually goes wrong
The gate is the one place everything passes through. Get it right and you know who is on site, which vehicles came and went, and what left in them. Get it wrong and the gate is just a barrier someone lifts.
Our gatehouse officers work to written instructions built around your bookings, permits and site rules. They check vehicles, drivers and paperwork, hold unbooked arrivals, keep the logs and make sure nobody is waved through because they look like they belong.
Unbooked vehicles
Vans and lorries that arrive without a booking can be thieves, or simply a safety risk in a busy yard.
Goods leaving without paperwork
Loads and materials that leave without checks are the easiest losses to miss.
No site register
If you do not know who is on site, you cannot account for them in a fire or after an incident.
Queues and congestion
Badly run gates back traffic onto the road and frustrate drivers and neighbours.
What we deliver
How we cover it, layer by layer
Every element is planned around your site and changes as your needs change.

What does a gatehouse security officer do?
They control everything that enters and leaves your site: vehicles, drivers, visitors, contractors and deliveries. They check bookings and paperwork, operate the gate and keep the records.
Can your officers use our booking and visitor systems?
Yes. Officers are trained on your systems as part of their site induction and work to written assignment instructions.
Do you provide 24 hour gatehouse cover?
Yes. We provide day, night and 24 hour gatehouse cover, with perimeter checks between vehicle movements out of hours.
Can gatehouse officers carry out vehicle searches?
Where your procedures allow it and drivers have been told as a condition of entry, officers can check cabs and loads, recorded consistently.
Do your gatehouse officers hold CSCS cards?
Officers on construction sites are CSCS carded where the principal contractor requires it.
