AGS Security provides SIA-licensed residential security for managed developments, gated communities, build-to-rent schemes, residential blocks and new-build handover sites across the UK.
From concierge-style access control and resident or visitor management to communal patrols, deliveries and incident response, security can be tailored around the stage of the development and the needs of residents, developers and managing agents.
Cover can combine front-of-building security, access control, communal patrols and resident-facing support, with the deployment changing as a development moves through construction, occupation and handover.
The schemes and bodies AGS Security is accredited by, registered with or a member of. If your procurement process needs certificates or scheme numbers, ask and we will provide the relevant documents.
The security model can be structured around resident access, visitor flow, communal areas, outdoor grounds, show homes, unoccupied plots and the transition from construction to occupation.
Resident-facing officers can manage visitors, contractors, deliveries and access points while providing a presence at the entrance to the development.

Explore LondonResidential and development sites carry different risks at every stage, from an active build through to show homes, part-occupied phases and full handover. AGS Security follows a structured four-stage process to ensure each development is properly assessed, professionally staffed and effectively managed. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
We begin by discussing the development, its current build stage, occupancy status and specific security concerns or contractual requirements.
We review the site layout, perimeter, show homes, unoccupied plots, plant and materials storage and foreseeable risks such as theft, vandalism and unauthorised access.
Suitable SIA-licensed officers are selected, assigned clear duties and fully briefed before arriving on site, including key holding and out-of-hours patrol arrangements where required.
Our management team remains available throughout the development to supervise the operation and adapt security cover as the site progresses from construction through to occupation.
