Guarding and People-Based Security

Event Security

Every event has a different shape: a corporate conference, a retail launch, a private function or a public gathering. Event security is planned around the format, capacity and layout of the specific event, not applied as a generic template.

Bordon Security officers greet guests and check passes at the entrance to a busy business event, with attendees queuing behind barriers.

What it is

Event security covers entry support, queue observation, coordination with stewarding teams, and control of restricted or backstage areas, alongside incident reporting appropriate to the scale and nature of the event.

How the service is tailored

We plan event cover around the venue, expected attendance, programme and any specific concerns raised by the organiser, working from event plans and site walk-throughs wherever possible.

Licensing and site requirements

Event security is planned and, where the role legally requires it, delivered using SIA-licensed personnel. Where an event calls for regulated door supervision, Bordon deploys only officers holding the correct SIA Door Supervision licence.

Services are subject to assessment, availability and agreed scope. Where appropriate, Bordon Security may coordinate delivery with suitably qualified service partners. Bordon Security remains your point of contact for the service agreed with you.
