Infrastructure Security Capability
Protection for civil engineering, groundworks and temporary project compounds.
AGS Security provides manned guarding, security dog handling, construction site security, mobile patrols, key holding and vacant property protection across Wales. Our regional coverage includes Cardiff, Newport, Swansea, Bridgend and Wrexham, with security solutions tailored to civil engineering works, infrastructure projects, construction sites, industrial premises, commercial property and vacant buildings.
Wales has several major investment programmes under way. Wylfa on Anglesey was confirmed in November 2025 as the site of the UK’s first small modular reactors, with an initial £2.5bn investment and a contract for design and planning work signed in April 2026. The Celtic and Anglesey freeports aim to attract up to £4.9bn of investment by 2030, and the Welsh Government expects to deliver more than 20,000 low-carbon social homes by the end of 2026. Energy, port and housing sites across both North and South Wales need controlled access, protected plant and regular checks out of hours. AGS Security organises Welsh cover from its Wolverhampton office — Wrexham is about 56 miles away, Cardiff about 118 and Swansea about 157.
Protection for civil engineering, groundworks and temporary project compounds.
Security for active developments, plant, materials and access points.
Enhanced deterrence for large, exposed and higher-risk sites.
Structured mobilisation, supervision, incident reporting and escalation support.
Infrastructure and construction environments require security teams that understand changing access points, exposed work areas, high-value plant, temporary compounds and the operational demands of live project sites.
Security for drainage, earthworks, road formation, temporary compounds and heavy plant.
Protection for active developments, access points, machinery, materials and partially completed assets.
Guarding and patrol support for empty commercial, industrial and redevelopment premises.
Scheduled visits, alarm attendance and secure key management for dispersed operational sites.
Civil engineering and infrastructure projects may contain heavy plant, temporary utilities, fuel, materials, welfare facilities and contractor compounds spread across large or remote work areas. These sites can remain vulnerable outside normal operating hours and during changing project phases.
AGS Security can provide SIA-licensed officers, security dog handlers, access control, perimeter patrols, mobile response and structured reporting to protect people, assets and project continuity from mobilisation through construction and handover.

The Welsh Government’s Rural Crime Strategy 2025–2028 reports rural crime claims rising from £2.4m in 2023 to £2.8m in 2024. Farm-edge developments, remote compounds and plant yards are the most exposed; mobile patrols, alarm response and security dog handlers are the usual deterrents.
