Security for film, TV & photo shoots
Unit base, set and equipment security for productions shooting on location in London, Berkshire and the Home Counties, day and night.
Keep the shoot rolling
Location shoots bring expensive kit, vehicles and talent into public spaces, often at odd hours. We protect your unit base, set, cast and equipment so your location team can focus on the schedule.
Our officers understand set etiquette: quiet on takes, polite with neighbours and the public, and flexible when call times move.
