Security guard services in London
London is unlike any other security environment in England: a global financial centre, a construction pipeline measured in billions, the country's busiest retail streets and a night-time economy that never fully switches off. Xtreme Protection provides SIA-licensed security guard services across all 32 London boroughs and the City — from corporate front of house in Canary Wharf to construction sites in Stratford and retail guarding on Oxford Street.
Every London deployment is staffed by locally based officers who know the capital's transport network, its borough-level risk patterns and its policing landscape. Whether you need a single concierge officer for a residential block or a fifty-strong event team, every shift is digitally verified and reported in writing.
Security services in London
All 17 specialist services are deployed locally in London. Open any service for London-specific coverage, deployment and pricing guidance.
The capital's risk profile shifts dramatically by district. The City and Canary Wharf demand polished corporate security and rigorous access control; the West End's retail and nightlife corridor needs loss prevention and licensed door teams; the industrial estates of Park Royal, Barking and Croydon face organised theft; and London's endless construction pipeline needs guarding, K9 units and monitored CCTV towers that move with the programme.
Our London command coordinates officers across every borough, so cover for sickness, surge and short-notice requirements is absorbed without gaps. Mobile patrols run routes across north, south, east and west London through the night, and response units hold keys for premises across Greater London.
Areas we cover across London
Covering every corner of London
Our patrol vehicles and response units operate across London and the wider capital region around the clock. If your site is on this map, we can have licensed officers, patrols or monitored towers protecting it — usually within days, urgently within hours.
Free site survey anywhere in Greater London
London contracts begin with a site survey and a borough-level risk assessment — crime in Westminster looks nothing like crime in Barking. We then write assignment instructions specific to your site, agree KPIs and reporting, and deploy officers briefed on your premises before their first shift. Monthly review packs show patrols, incidents and response times in black and white.

Security in London — answered
London rates run higher than the rest of England because of London-weighted labour costs, and central postcodes carry a premium over outer boroughs. Role matters too: a concierge officer, a door supervisor and a K9 unit are priced very differently.
