Construction Site Security in Watford — ZimCos Security Ltd
ZimCos Security Ltd provides comprehensive construction site security in Watford to protect materials, machinery and personnel around the clock. With theft and vandalism costing builders thousands each year, we offer a complete package of security guards, K9 patrols, mobile response units and CCTV monitoring systems.

Why Construction Sites in Watford Need Professional Security
Building sites often contain high-value items such as tools, generators, cabling and vehicles. They also present health and safety risks when left unmonitored. Our visible presence reduces trespass and liability while keeping insurance requirements valid.
Our Site Security Services
Static Security Guards
Experienced officers protect entrances and perimeters, checking vehicles and staff against authorised lists. Combine with Keyholding and Alarm Response for complete 24-hour coverage.
K9 Dog Patrols
Our NASDU-certified dog teams offer the strongest visual deterrent on large or open sites. Handlers patrol during night shifts, responding immediately to motion detection or alarm activations.
Mobile Patrols & Alarm Response
Cost-effective roaming patrols secure multiple smaller sites or compounds. Teams perform random checks and attend alarms within minutes of activation.
CCTV Towers & Monitoring
For unpowered or remote sites, we deploy solar-powered CCTV towers with motion sensors, loudspeakers and LED lighting. Footage is live-monitored from our control room.
Access Control & Visitor Management
We install controlled entry systems and maintain visitor logs to ensure only authorised personnel enter the site, reducing internal theft and safety incidents.
