A visible presence without a guard standing there all night.
Not every site needs an officer on duty for the entire shift. Mobile patrols give you a visible security presence at intervals — scheduled or randomised — so the property is checked regularly without the cost of a permanent guard.
When this makes sense.
- The site doesn't justify a permanent guard but needs regular checking
- You want unpredictable patrol times so the pattern can't be learned
- A vacant property needs visible visits to deter trespass
- An occupied building needs out-of-hours perimeter checks
What this can cover.
Responsibilities depend on the individual contract. These are the areas Guard Secure can include in the assignment instructions.
How an assignment is planned.
We agree the number of patrols per night or week — or randomise the timing
Officers attend the site, carry out the agreed checks and log the visit
Any issues are reported and escalated according to the instructions
Patrol records are available where reporting is included in the contract

Questions about mobile patrols.
Patrol frequency is agreed per contract. Some sites need multiple visits, others need one or two. We'll recommend a frequency based on the site and the risk, then you decide what works.
Yes. Randomised patrols are one of the options. Unpredictable timing makes it harder for anyone watching the site to work out when it will be checked.
Permanent guarding puts an officer on site for the duration of the shift. Mobile patrols send an officer to the site for each check, then they move on. Patrols cost less but don't provide continuous presence. The right choice depends on the risk, the budget and what the site needs.
Internal checks can be included if access arrangements allow. External perimeter, door and window checks are standard. Internal access depends on keys, alarms and the specific contract.
