Manned Guarding FAQs
What is manned guarding?
Manned guarding involves deploying trained, SIA-licensed security officers to physically protect a premises, site or event. Officers provide a visible deterrent, control access, monitor activity and respond to incidents — giving businesses in Sheffield, Doncaster and across Yorkshire professional, on-site protection. See our guide to security guard costs in Sheffield.
Are your security officers SIA licensed?
Yes — every Pearl Security officer holds a valid SIA licence. We verify all licences before deployment and ensure full compliance with UK security regulations. Our officers are also vetted to BS 7858 standard. Our SIA Licence number is 1019 1821 7604 5373.
Do you provide manned guarding in Doncaster?
Yes — Pearl Security provides manned guarding across Doncaster and the wider South Yorkshire region. We cover all areas of the Doncaster borough including the town centre, iPort, Wheatley Hall Road and all surrounding areas. See our Doncaster security services guide.
How quickly can you deploy security officers?

What is the difference between manned guarding and mobile patrols?
Manned guarding involves a permanent security officer presence at your premises. Mobile patrols involve regular visits to your site by a patrol officer — a more cost-effective option for businesses that don't require continuous cover. Many businesses combine both services for comprehensive protection.
