What we do
Five services. One number to call.
Whatever you are protecting — a building site, a shop floor, a door on a Saturday night, or a field with three thousand people in it — the cover is licensed, insured and local.
Static Guarding
A guard on site, where you need one, for as long as you need one.

Describe what you are protecting and we will tell you straight — including when the honest answer is the cheaper option.
The bit other companies leave out
“If a client needs someone removed, they ring me and I go down and deal with it.”
That is the whole out-of-hours service, described exactly as it works. Not a call centre that logs a ticket. Not a number that rings out until Monday. A phone that gets answered, and a person who turns up.
Why Border Security
Local enough to care. Licensed enough to trust.
We are actually from here
Carlisle-based, working across Cumbria. We know the venues, the estates and the roads — including how long it really takes to get to Barrow at two in the morning.
Every officer is SIA licensed
It is a legal requirement, not a badge of honour — but you would be surprised. Ask to see a licence. Ours are worn where you can see them.
You get a person, not a portal
One number, answered around the clock. No ticket system, no account manager who will get back to you within three working days.
Where we work
From the border to the Lakes.
We are based in Carlisle and cover Cumbria — the cities, the market towns, the industrial estates and the very rural sites where a police response can be a long way off.
What clients say
In their words.
Appreciation post to Deric at Border Security Ltd in Carlisle for travelling to Glasgow every night to watch over our heavy machinery. Deric’s team are very professional and highly recommended.
