Eyeview Security Services Ltd supplies SIA-licensed security officers, mobile patrols and site protection to businesses, contractors, managing agents and event organisers across Croydon and south London. Tell us the site, the hours and the risk — we will come back with a clear plan and a straight price.
Front-of-house access control — one of the security roles we cover across Croydon.
From a single overnight patrol visit to a permanent 24/7 gatehouse. Every assignment is scoped against the actual site rather than sold from a package list.
A visible, uniformed SIA-licensed officer on site for the hours you agree — controlling access, deterring intrusion and logging everything that happens on shift.
Scheduled, randomised patrol visits for sites that do not need a full-time officer — each visit logged with times, findings and photographs where agreed.
Gatehouse cover, plant and materials protection and out-of-hours patrols for construction and civils sites across Croydon and south London.
Entry control, bag checks, crowd management and safe egress for weddings, private functions, corporate events and community events.
Front-of-house door supervision for licensed premises, bars, clubs and managed entrances, by officers holding the SIA Door Supervisor licence.
We hold the keys so your staff do not have to attend an alarm at 3am — with a documented escalation route agreed in advance.
Plenty of security suppliers will quote you a rate over the phone and work out the detail later. That is how sites end up with an officer who does not know the access rules, a patrol log nobody ever sees, and a procurement team chasing paperwork two weeks into a contract.
We do it the other way round. Before the first shift we agree the duties, the access arrangements, the escalation route and the reporting format, and put them in a site brief that the officer is briefed against and you keep a copy of.
No lengthy sales process. A conversation about the site, a written proposal, and officers on the ground.
Call 07516 393932 or send the enquiry form. We need the postcode, the type of premises, the hours and days you want covering, the start date and what the main risk actually is.
We work out how many officers the site genuinely needs, what they will be doing, what gets reported and how. You get a clear price for that scope with no obligation.
Once you approve it, officers are briefed against the written site brief before they arrive — access rules, patrol routes, escalation contacts and reporting format.
Croydon is one of London's largest commercial centres, with a town-centre retail core, active development sites, industrial estates at Purley Way and a great deal of managed residential property. Each brings a different security problem.
Sub-contract cover for FM providers who need a reliable security line on a Croydon contract, with reporting that slots into your existing client pack.
Blocks, estates and void units — patrols, key holding and concierge cover with written records for the freeholder.
Gatehouse, plant protection and out-of-hours patrols from groundworks through to handover.
Goods-in access control, driver management and shift patterns matched to your operating hours.
Store-floor officers and licensed door supervisors for shops, bars and restaurants across the borough.
Weddings, corporate events and community events — entry control, stewarding and safe egress.

Based in London and working across Croydon and the neighbouring south London and north Surrey boroughs. If your postcode is not listed, call us — it is usually still within range.
Straight answers to what people ask before booking security cover. If yours is not here, call 07516 393932.
Yes. Croydon and the surrounding CR, SE19, SE25, SM and SW16 postcodes are a core coverage area for Eyeview Security Services Ltd. We take enquiries for manned guarding, mobile patrols, construction and event security, door supervision, key holding and void property cover across the borough.
Coverage is always confirmed against the specific brief — tell us the site postcode, the hours you need and the start date, and we will come back with a straight answer on whether we can cover it.
Front-line security work in the UK is regulated by the Security Industry Authority, and officers deployed on Eyeview assignments hold the relevant SIA licence for the role they are carrying out — the Door Supervisor licence for licensed premises, and the Security Guarding licence for static and patrol work.
Licence details can be supplied and checked before anyone attends your site. If your procurement or FM team needs sight of licences, insurance or screening records as a condition of engagement, tell us at enquiry stage and we will confirm what we can provide before a contract starts.
Security is priced per hour, per officer, and the rate depends on the role, the shift pattern, the number of officers, the length of the booking and whether the work falls at night, at weekends or on bank holidays. A single overnight patrol visit and a 24/7 manned gatehouse are very different numbers.
Rather than publish a headline figure that would not apply to your site, we quote against the actual brief. Send the location, the hours and what the officer needs to do, and you will get a clear price for that requirement with no obligation.
It depends entirely on the shift pattern and how many officers the site needs. A single patrol visit or a short guarding shift can often be arranged at short notice; a permanent 24/7 rota with site-specific inductions takes longer to set up properly.
Call 07516 393932 with the location, the hours and the required start time. We will tell you honestly whether suitable cover can be arranged rather than promising a start date we cannot hold.
Static guarding places an officer on your site for the whole of an agreed shift. It suits premises that need a continuous presence — a staffed reception, a construction gate, a site with public access or one that has already been targeted.
Mobile patrols are scheduled visits at irregular times across an agreed window, with the officer checking the property and moving on. It is a lower-cost option for empty or low-risk sites where the point is regular verified attendance rather than permanent presence. Many clients in Croydon use static cover on weekdays and patrols at weekends.
Yes. Construction security is one of our main areas of work — gatehouse and delivery control, plant, tool and materials protection, signing-in records and out-of-hours perimeter patrols.
Croydon has a lot of active development, and sites near town-centre footfall have very different exposure from a sealed compound. Tell us the stage the build is at, the perimeter arrangement and the principal contractor's induction requirements, and we will scope the cover around it.
Yes. We take bookings for weddings, private functions, corporate events and community events. Duties usually cover the entrance and guest list, keeping fire exits and walkways clear, discreetly handling anyone who becomes a problem, and managing a safe exit at the end of the night.
For anything at a licensed venue, officers hold the SIA Door Supervisor licence required for that role. Give us the venue, the expected numbers and the running order and we will advise how many officers the event actually needs.
Yes — FM providers, managing agents and main contractors are a significant part of our work. If you are sub-contracting security on a Croydon contract, send the site details, the required shift pattern and the reporting format your own client expects.
We will confirm the scope, the availability and which procurement documents we can supply before anything is committed, so nothing surfaces as a surprise during mobilisation.
Our enquiry line is listed as open 24 hours, so urgent requirements can be discussed at any time of day or night. Whether cover itself can be deployed at that moment depends on the site, the role and current availability.
For genuinely urgent situations — a break-in, an eviction, a building left insecure — call 07516 393932 with the address and the immediate risk, and we will tell you straight away what can be arranged.
Call 07516 393932, email info@eyeviewsecurtity.com, or use the enquiry form on this site. The quickest route is to include the site postcode, the type of premises, the hours and days you need covering, the start date and anything specific the officer needs to deal with.
We review the requirement against the brief and come back with a clear proposal and next step. There is no charge and no obligation for a quote.
Send the site, the shift pattern and the start date. We will confirm what can be arranged and what it costs — no obligation.
