Remote services let us protect your sites without always being on the ground. We combine trained security specialists, smart technology and data to monitor your premises around the clock. It’s a flexible option if you want strong protection with less on-site presence.
Overview
Remote security services mean we monitor and support your sites from a secure operations centre, instead of always being on-site. We use remote video monitoring, alarm monitoring and access control tools to keep an eye on what matters most.
This category is ideal if you have multiple locations, large outdoor areas or sites that are empty at night or at weekends. You might be looking to reduce on-site guarding costs, add extra protection outside business hours, or support your own security team with professional monitoring.
With Securitas, you get a mix of people, technology and data. Our trained operators work with CCTV, alarms, analytics and clear procedures to spot issues early and respond quickly. We can also connect remote services with on-site guarding, mobile patrols or technical solutions to build the right level of protection for you.
We work with you to understand your risks, design a remote solution and adjust it over time as your business changes.
How we work
We start by reviewing your sites, existing systems and key risks. Together, we decide what should be monitored remotely - for example entrances, loading bays, car parks or high-value areas.
Then we connect your CCTV, alarms and access control to our security operations centre. Our operators follow agreed procedures, use video analytics and event data, and contact you or dispatch a response when something is not as it should be.
We keep things simple and transparent. You get clear reporting, regular reviews and the option to adjust your remote services as your business grows or changes.

FAQs
Here are some common questions about our remote security services. If you don’t see your question here, please contact us and we’ll be happy to talk it through.
Remote security services cover monitoring and handling of events from your CCTV, alarms and access control systems. This can include remote video monitoring, alarm handling, virtual patrols, audio interventions and remote access support. We agree clear procedures with you so our operators know exactly what to do when something happens.
Remote services are a good fit if you have sites that are empty for long periods, multiple locations, or areas that are hard to staff with guards. We usually start with a risk review and a look at your current systems. Together, we decide which areas should be monitored remotely and whether you also need on-site response.
The timeline depends on how much equipment you already have and how many sites are involved. If your CCTV and alarms are ready to connect, setup can be relatively quick. If new systems are needed, it will take longer. We’ll give you a clear plan and realistic timeline before we start.
We don’t use one fixed price for all clients. Costs depend on factors like the number of sites, cameras and alarms, monitoring hours and the level of response you need. We’ll explain the options and help you choose a solution that balances risk, coverage and budget, without overpromising.
Yes. Remote services often work best when combined with other protective services such as on-site guarding, mobile patrols or technical security solutions. We can design an integrated solution so that remote monitoring, physical response and technology all work together.
If we see that cameras or alarms are not working as expected, we’ll follow agreed steps to inform you and, where relevant, arrange technical support. We aim to keep you aware of any gaps in coverage so you can make informed decisions about repairs or upgrades.
