Frequently Asked Questions — Security Services UK

Are your officers SIA licensed?
Yes — every Security by UUK officer holds a current, valid SIA licence verified against the official SIA register before deployment. We are directly employed — not agency supplied.
Can you provide security at short notice?
In most cases, yes. Contact us with your requirement and location. For standard deployments we aim to confirm within 24 hours. Emergency cover is handled as priority.
Do you provide keyholding and alarm response?
Yes — Security by UUK holds your keys and responds when your alarm triggers. A trained officer will attend, inspect and secure the premises, then report back to you with full details of the incident.
Do you provide retail security officers?
Yes — our retail security officers are SIA-licensed and trained in both loss prevention and customer service. We cover individual shops, shopping centres, retail parks and high streets.
Can you provide corporate reception security?
Yes — our corporate reception officers manage access control, visitor sign-in and front-of-house presence for office buildings, business parks and multi-tenanted premises. They combine security with a professional welcome.
Do you provide community safety wardens?
Yes — Security by UUK provides high-visibility community safety wardens for town centres, high streets, BIDs and residential areas. Wardens deter anti-social behaviour and provide a reassuring presence.
Do you provide construction site security overnight?
Yes — overnight guarding for construction sites is one of our core services. Officers cover access points, patrol perimeters and protect plant and materials.
What's the difference between door supervision and manned guarding?
Door supervision is the SIA licence required to work at licensed premises (nightclubs, bars, events). Manned guarding covers commercial, corporate and industrial sites. We hold both — many of our officers are dual licensed.
Do you provide event safety stewards as well as security?
Yes — we supply both SIA-licensed security officers and NaCTSO-compliant safety stewards. Many events need a mix of both, and we can provide the full team.
What sectors do you operate in?
Security by UUK operates across retail and town centres, construction, healthcare, education, corporate and commercial, events and hospitality, logistics and distribution, and residential and housing.
How do you report incidents?
All patrol rounds are GPS logged. Officers submit digital incident reports in real time. You receive a full shift report for every deployment.
