Yes. All security guards provided by Crystal Facilities Management hold a valid SIA (Security Industry Authority) licence. Crystal is also an SIA Approved Contractor (ACS), meaning the company is audited annually for operational and performance standards — giving clients an additional layer of assurance beyond individual licensing.
Professional security guards help protect businesses from theft, vandalism and unauthorised access. They provide a visible deterrent against criminal activity, ensure the safety of employees and customers, and respond promptly to emergencies. Well-trained guards also help enforce company policies, monitor surveillance systems and assist with crowd control when needed.
Security guards in the UK must hold an SIA (Security Industry Authority) licence, which ensures they meet industry standards for security work. Training covers conflict resolution, emergency response, crowd management, first aid and surveillance techniques. Experienced personnel may also receive specialised training for high-risk environments such as construction sites or corporate settings.
Crystal offers a comprehensive range of security services including static and manned guarding, reception and front-of-house cover, access control management, mobile patrols, key holding and alarm response, CCTV and control-room monitoring, security assessments and consultancy. Each solution is customised to the specific needs of the client’s site and sector.
Static guarding involves a security officer stationed at a fixed location — such as a building entrance or reception — providing a constant, visible deterrent. Mobile patrols involve officers making scheduled or random visits to inspect a site or multiple locations, which is a more flexible and cost-effective option for larger premises, construction sites or vacant properties.
Professional security guards are trained to respond effectively to emergencies such as theft, fire, medical incidents and unauthorised access. They follow established emergency response protocols, coordinate with law enforcement or emergency services when necessary, and take immediate action to secure the premises — ensuring a swift and professional reaction to any security threat.
Mobile security patrols provide a flexible, cost-effective solution for businesses that require periodic security checks rather than full-time guarding. Mobile patrol officers conduct scheduled or random visits to inspect properties, check for security breaches and deter potential threats. This service is ideal for warehouses, vacant properties, large commercial areas and construction sites.
The cost of security guard services varies depending on factors such as the number of guards required, hours of cover, location and type of service (static vs. mobile). Crystal Facilities Management offers competitive, customised pricing — contact the team for a tailored quote based on your specific requirements.
Crystal’s security teams are deployed across a wide range of sectors including corporate offices, retail environments, construction sites, warehouses and depots, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, student accommodation, hotels, shopping centres and residential properties.
Every requirement is different, so we price each contract individually — based on guard numbers, hours of cover, location and whether you need static guarding, mobile patrols or a combination. You get a transparent, competitive quote with no hidden fees.
