AT THE HEART OF DISTRIBUTION
Security for Leicester's Warehouses and Logistics Parks
Leicestershire sits in the middle of England's busiest distribution area. The M1 and M69 meet just south-west of Leicester, and the A46, A6 and A50 carry freight in every direction. Large logistics parks have grown up across the county, including Magna Park near Lutterworth and the business parks around junction 21 of the M1, alongside smaller depots and warehouses closer to the city.
Distribution sites run around the clock, hold high-value stock and see a constant flow of vehicles and drivers. That makes gate control, yard checks and perimeter protection just as important as protecting the building itself. We supply gatehouse officers, mobile patrols, CCTV towers and dog teams for these sites, with cover built around your shift pattern.
Leicester's older industrial areas, with roots in the textile and hosiery trade, also have plenty of manufacturing units, trade counters and mixed-use buildings that need sensible, affordable protection. For many of them, key holding and alarm response, backed by occasional patrol visits, provide a reliable level of cover without the cost of a full-time officer, and can be stepped up quickly if problems start.

BEYOND LOGISTICS
Other Leicester Sites We Protect
Leicester's city centre has seen steady regeneration, with new residential, student and commercial buildings. Our construction site security service covers these builds with access control, patrols and rapid deployment CCTV.
Retail is another large part of the local economy, from the city-centre shopping streets to retail parks on the outer ring road. Static officers provide a visible presence during trading hours, while alarm response and key holding look after premises after closing.
Leicester also has a lively events calendar and a busy night-time economy, and we can supply SIA-licensed officers for venues and one-off occasions.
Our officers are SIA-licensed, our dog teams are NASDU-approved, and our team has over 30 years of experience in the security industry. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification and is certified to COP 119.

FAQs
Leicester Security Questions
Can you provide security for a distribution centre near the M1 or M69?
Yes. We protect distribution centres with gatehouse officers, yard patrols, CCTV towers and NASDU-approved dog teams. We look at your shift patterns, vehicle movements and perimeter, then recommend cover that protects both the building and the yard without disrupting operations.
Do you cover Lutterworth, Hinckley and Loughborough?
Yes. We cover towns across Leicestershire, including Lutterworth, Hinckley, Loughborough, Market Harborough, Melton Mowbray and Coalville, as well as Leicester itself. Call us with your site address and the type of site, and we will confirm the cover available and how it would work in practice.
Is Pride K9 based in Leicester?
No. Our head office is in Walsall, WS1 3BZ, and we provide nationwide coverage with the Midlands as our core area. We arrange Leicester cover 24/7 and deploy SIA-licensed officers and NASDU-approved dog teams to sites according to each contract.
Can you protect a retail unit in Leicester after closing?
Yes. After closing, we can hold your keys, attend alarm activations and carry out patrol visits to check doors, shutters and the surrounding area. During trading hours, static officers can provide a visible presence to deter theft and support staff.
Do you provide security for car compounds and dealerships?
Yes. Vehicle compounds, car storage sites and dealerships are high-value targets. We protect them with a combination of CCTV towers, patrols, static officers and dog teams, depending on the size of the site and how exposed it is at night.
