Foremost's role in securing construction sites
Foremost Security provides patrol and guarding services to construction sites and housing developments across the East Midlands region.
Foremost's specialism is the human element of premises security - prevention and response by patrols and guards.
Foremost does not provide the full range of security tools and services that construction sites might need to consider. However, Foremost can provide details of fencing and lighting providers and has a long-standing business relationship with a company specialising in the installation and monitoring of CCTV systems used widely for construction sites.
To protect against such threats, the security services most often used by Construction companies include: Keyholding & Alarm Response, Mobile Patrols and Lock & Unlock
Why site security is so important for construction sites and housing developments
As everyone in the construction industry knows the sites can be a magnet for problems. The range of problems stretches from youths who want to climb or hang out on the site, vandals, occasionally the homeless, and thieves who see a plethora of materials and equipment worth stealing.
Not only are the costs of damage done, or tools/materials stolen significant but the issue of risk and liability also raises its ugly head. Site managers are responsible for ensuring that it is made as difficult as possible for people to hurt themselves or others on each and every site. Even if the people should not be there in the first place ensuring their safety is still a requirement/responsibility.

Security Patrols and CCTV response services for construction sites
An effective security patrol/guarding partner, such as Foremost, will help to:
- deter and so reduce crime
- deter unwanted out-of-hours visits by youths or people looking for shelter
- minimise delays and additional re-work costs caused by crime or damage
- avoid or minimise (depending on the services required) staff call-outs to deal with issues arising out-of-hours
- maintain the reputation of the construction business by having trained professionals deal with the 'unwanted/baddies' and the emergency services when the need arises
Security options
The benefits listed can be achieved when Foremost's role is either as:
- the first responder for the site's CCTV monitoring company and/or
- the provider of regular security patrols and lock and unlock services.
