      Mobile patrol and alarm response services for Irish sites

      Securitas mobile patrol & alarm response services combine regular, visible patrols with professional alarm attendance. Our mobile officers visit your sites at agreed times and respond to alarms 24/7, helping you deter crime, spot issues early and handle incidents without sending your own staff out at night.

      The challenge

      Empty sites at night and alarms that need a response

      Many sites are unoccupied for long periods - overnight, at weekends or between shifts. During these times, you still need deterrence, checks and a reliable way to respond when alarms go off.

      Relying on staff to attend alarms can be slow and risky. They may live far from the site, be reluctant to respond alone, or not know how to handle what they find. At the same time, having static guards on every site 24/7 is not always practical or cost‑effective.

      You need a flexible solution that keeps an eye on your premises, provides visible presence and ensures alarms are attended quickly, without putting your own people on the road at night.

      Our combined solution

      Regular mobile patrols plus 24/7 alarm response

      With Securitas mobile patrol & alarm response, you get two connected services in one plan: scheduled patrols to check your site and professional attendance when alarms are triggered.

      • Scheduled mobile patrols - Our officers visit your premises at agreed times, day or night. They carry out external and internal checks, look for signs of intrusion or damage, and make sure doors, windows and gates are secure.

      • 24/7 alarm response - When an intruder, fire or technical alarm is received and verified, our operations centre dispatches the nearest patrol vehicle. The officer attends the site, follows your response plan and reports back on the situation.

      • Flexible coverage - Patrol frequency and routes can be adjusted to match your risk profile, operating hours and budget. Higher‑risk periods can receive more visits, while quieter times are covered by alarm response.

      • Clear reporting - Both patrols and alarm attendances are documented, giving you a record of checks, findings and actions over time.

      This combined approach gives you visible deterrence, early detection and reliable incident handling, without the cost of full‑time guarding at every site.

      Where it fits

      Mobile patrol & alarm response for retail parks, offices, industrial estates and remote sites

      This combined service is ideal for sites that need regular checks but are not staffed around the clock:

      • Retail parks and standalone stores - Patrols provide visible presence after closing, while alarm response ensures quick attendance if an intruder or fire alarm activates.

      • Office buildings and business parks - Mobile officers check entrances, car parks and common areas, and respond to alarms outside working hours, reducing the need for managers to attend.

      • Industrial estates and logistics hubs - Patrols cover yards, loading bays and perimeter fencing, while alarm response handles incidents between shifts or overnight.

      • Remote or hard‑to‑reach sites - Sites such as depots, substations, solar farms or storage facilities benefit from scheduled visits and rapid alarm attendance from mobile teams familiar with the location.

      We design patrol routes, visit times and alarm procedures around your specific sites, risks and operating patterns.

      Benefits

      What mobile patrol & alarm response deliver together

      Visible deterrence without full‑time guarding
      Regular patrols and marked vehicles show that your site is being checked. This can deter opportunistic crime without the cost of a permanent on‑site guard.
      Faster, professional alarm attendance
      When alarms go off, the nearest patrol vehicle is dispatched. Officers are trained to assess the situation, take action and escalate when needed.
      Flexible coverage that matches your risk
      Patrol frequency and alarm procedures can be adjusted over time as risks change. You can increase visits after incidents or during busy seasons and scale back when appropriate.
      Reduced reliance on staff call‑outs
      Your own staff no longer need to attend alarms at night or travel to remote sites. This improves safety and reduces disruption to rest and family life.
      Insight into what happens when you are closed
      Patrol and alarm reports show you when issues occur, which areas are most affected and where improvements might be needed, such as lighting, locks or cameras.
      Easy to combine with other security measures
      Mobile patrol & alarm response can be linked with remote monitoring, keyholding and on‑site guarding, giving you a layered security approach from one provider.
