If you’ve been a landlord for any length of time you’ll know the importance of reliable door staff and pub security London. In venues like nightclubs, bars or pubs, emotions can run high, especially after alcohol has been consumed. In these instances it’s absolutely essential that door staff are trained to the highest level so that incidents are resolved safely. This may be why the government has recently made physical intervention training a compulsory requirement in new door security staff, effective since the 1st of June. Here at Oxguard Security, this serves to bolster our already high staff standards.
We offer doorman security services for a whole host of establishments. The new regulations mean that all new staff must be trained in the removal of problem patrons in a way that is safe and appropriate. Here at Oxguard, we look forward to the enhanced employee quality that this will bring, but regardless, all of our security guards are already licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA).
While it is not yet a legal requirement that existing door staff be retrained, such a development could come to pass during the summer. Not only will additional training help keep revellers safe, it will also ensure clients outsourcing for door staff will receive an enhanced service. This is because incidents which are solved in the professional manner that this training encourages will reflect on your business in a more positive way.
While the team here at Oxguard Security understands that physical removal is sometimes necessary, we believe the key to an effective door security service is good communication.
You’ll find that our staff are excellent communicators who can defuse volatile situations before they even develop. So in order to take advantage of the new security training regulations for your pub security London, consider a firm like Oxguard Security who already cultivate a high standard of staff competence at all times.

The role of the security in safeguarding people and possessions is often overlooked. This is because the best guards fade into the background, and become part of the fabric of the building they are securing. When the time comes for them to act, they do so in an effective and efficient way, without disrupting everybody else. Security guards Luton fall into numerous categories, but the high-quality team here at Oxguard offer expert domestic, commercial and door supervision services.
When enjoying an evening out to a licensed premise there is nothing more reassuring than the sight of security guards on the door. They act as a deterrent to trouble, and, should the worse happen they have the skills and experience to diffuse a situation efficiently and effectively. However, guards without the appropriate training could actually make matters worse, so always ensure any team you contract are fully-trained and professional. Our door supervisors are SIA license holders, as testament to their quality.
Our security guards are also on hand to provide on-site safeguarding for both domestic and commercial properties. Remote teams are also on hand 24 hours a day to attend any alarm activation, whether it is indeed a false alarm or a lost set of keys. Whatever the requirement, they will be there to help.
A security presence is also a great way to deter would-be thieves in a retail environment. Our staff are also fully trained to deal with unforeseen events that may occur, such as a lost child or fire alarm.
Any high-quality security provider should be committed to providing trained, vetted, insured manned guards to protect your premises, and at Oxguard we are no different.

There are many security services available that are effective at deterring those who may be looking to cause damage to your property or the content inside. The majority of these incidents occur after hours, but for those businesses that are at risk of shoplifters during the day, there are solutions.
London specialists provide retail guards to watch over your store and ensure that anything untoward is handled and dealt with professionally. Depending on the type of shop you own, there are many options to choose from when it comes to choosing the right security guard for your store.
Plain Clothes Security Guards:
Not all retail outlets want to have security that is obvious. Plain clothes security guards fit in with regular shoppers. This in turn makes people feel more at ease if they feel they are not being watched and reviewed in their every movement.
Many shops also want to appear casual and relaxed but want the extra security. Plain clothes security guards are the perfect solution during opening hours, to make sure shops have the highest protection against theft.
Uniformed Guards:
These are far more noticeable within a store and therefore people are aware they may be caught if trying to commit a theft. With this in mind, many shops feel their livelihoods are safer and their shop is more protected.
Some people may associate uniformed security guards with those stores that have expensive goods, but all shops can benefit from having security guards to protect their premises.
Regardless of where your property is based, both types of security guards are available for your needs. Professional suppliers of retail security guards London, and Oxfordshire guarantee to only supply those guards that have passed their inspections and that they trust to protect your business.
