BRISTOL AND THE SOUTH WEST
Security Company in Bristol
Pride K9 provides security guards, NASDU-approved dog teams, mobile patrols, key holding, alarm response and CCTV for sites in Bristol and the surrounding area, arranged 24/7 as part of our nationwide service.
HOW WE COVER BRISTOL
A Nationwide Security Company Working in Bristol
We prefer to be clear about how we work. Pride K9 covers the whole of the UK from our head office in Walsall, and Bristol is reached directly via the M5. Cover for Bristol sites is arranged 24/7 and resourced from our network to suit each contract.
What does not change is the standard of the service. Officers are SIA-licensed, dogs and handlers are NASDU-approved, and we work to British Standards, including BS 8517-1 for security dogs. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification, along with COP 119 and Cyber Essentials, and our team has over 30 years of experience in the security industry.

PORTS AND DISTRIBUTION
Security for Avonmouth, Severnside and Industrial Bristol
The north-west edge of the city, around Avonmouth and Royal Portbury Dock, is one of the largest industrial and distribution areas in the South West. Warehouses, storage yards, vehicle compounds and waste and energy facilities sit alongside the docks, with the M5, M49 and A4 Portway carrying constant freight traffic.
Large, open sites like these suit layered protection: gatehouse officers checking vehicles in and out, monitored CCTV covering long fence lines, and mobile patrols or a NASDU-approved dog team through the night. Our warehouse and industrial security page explains the approach in more detail.
Filton and the northern fringe have a long aerospace and engineering history, with business parks and manufacturing units that need similar care.

- Monitored CCTV for dock and yard perimeters

CITY SITES
Construction, Commercial and Vacant Property in Bristol
Bristol continues to build. Temple Quarter and the areas around Temple Meads, St Philips and the Harbourside have seen sustained regeneration, and housing schemes are underway across the city and in the fringe towns of South Gloucestershire. Building sites need controlled access during the day and protection for plant, materials and fuel when they are closed, which our construction site security service provides.
The city centre, Clifton, Cabot Circus and the retail parks at Cribbs Causeway bring retail and hospitality premises that benefit from visible officers during trading hours and alarm response afterwards. Offices and student accommodation often need reception cover and patrols.
Empty commercial buildings between tenants or awaiting redevelopment are another common request. Wireless cameras, patrol visits and key holding usually give enough protection, with a dog team added where a building has already been targeted.

Bristol Security FAQs
Do you have an office in Bristol?
No. Pride K9 is based in Walsall, WS1 3BZ, and covers Bristol as part of our nationwide service rather than from a local depot. Cover for Bristol and the surrounding area is arranged 24/7 and resourced from our network, with SIA-licensed officers and NASDU-approved dog teams deployed according to each contract.
Can you protect a warehouse or compound at Avonmouth?
Yes. Avonmouth and Severnside sites are usually large with long perimeters, so we tend to combine gatehouse officers, monitored CCTV and patrols, adding a dog team where the yard is open or the stock is high value. We will assess access points and fencing before recommending cover.
Do you cover Bath, Weston-super-Mare and South Gloucestershire?
Yes. As well as Bristol we can cover Bath, Weston-super-Mare, Portishead, Clevedon, Nailsea, Yate and Thornbury, along with the rest of the surrounding area. Call 0344 800 7066 with the site address and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can you provide security for a Bristol construction site?
Yes. We supply gatehouse officers, rapid deployment CCTV towers, security pods, mobile patrols and dog teams for construction. The right mix depends on the size of the site, what plant and materials are stored there and how exposed the boundary is.
How quickly can cover be arranged in Bristol?
We are available 24/7 on 0344 800 7066, and how soon cover can start depends on the service and the site. Rather than give a promise we cannot stand behind, we will tell you honestly on the call what we can put in place and when.
