AGS Security provides civil engineering security for infrastructure projects, highways schemes, rail works, utilities compounds and groundworks sites across England, Scotland and Wales.
From gatehouse control and plant protection to overnight cover and rapid deployment, our SIA-licensed officers help protect high-value plant, materials and personnel across long-duration programmes, from enabling works through construction and handover.
Infrastructure security can combine controlled access, protection of plant and materials, perimeter patrols and out-of-hours cover. The deployment should reflect the project footprint, programme stage and changing risk profile.
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.
Security can be structured around compound access, principal contractor procedures, working hours, plant movements, materials storage, large site boundaries and the periods when works are unattended.
SIA-licensed officers manage site entry and exit, contractor and visitor movements, vehicle access and deliveries while working to agreed principal contractor procedures and project rules.

Explore Yorkshire & HumberInfrastructure projects run long, span large footprints and carry high-value plant that moves between phases. AGS Security follows a structured four-stage process so every civil engineering assignment is properly assessed, appropriately staffed and effectively managed from enabling works to handover.
We start by discussing your programme, site footprint, working hours and any principal contractor or framework requirements that shape the cover.
We review compound layout, access points, plant and material storage, boundary vulnerability and the risks specific to each phase of the works.
SIA-licensed, vetted officers are selected for the site, assigned clear duties and fully briefed on site rules and induction requirements before their first shift.
Our management team stays available throughout the programme to supervise cover, adjust as the works progress and respond to changing site requirements.
