Training, licensing and insurance

Fast K9 Security Limited holds ISO 9001 certification, SafeContractor approval and Constructionline Gold membership. Public liability insurance is in place. Relevant security personnel hold valid SIA licences, our general-purpose security dog handlers hold NASDU Level 2 handler training, and drug detection assignments use trained specialist handlers.

These credentials sit alongside the practical service you receive: personnel carrying out defined duties, operations coordinating the assignment and reports that keep you informed. Our team can discuss the relevant supporting information with your procurement or facilities representative.

Protect the parked-up period

A yard may be quiet while vehicles, equipment and materials remain there until the next working day. A dog-handler patrol checks the designated areas and looks for relevant changes at access points and boundaries.

If drivers or contractors need to arrive during the shift, a security officer can manage the entrance separately. That avoids expecting the patrol handler to remain at a gate while also moving around the premises.

Canine guarding for the parked-up hours

Fast K9 provides a security dog and handler to patrol designated yards, buildings and access points during your booked shift. This gives premises a physical presence while vehicles, equipment or materials remain awaiting the next working period.

The handler checks the arranged areas and reports relevant observations, with the dog under control. Hourly photographs support the patrol updates, and operations maintains contact throughout the assignment.

You can arrange a limited run of nights, regular weekend cover or a continuing contract. The service can also operate during the day where working premises require an additional patrol role.

Keep access duties separate from the wider patrol

A yard may still receive expected drivers or contractors after office staff leave. A fixed officer can handle entrance duties while the dog handler moves around the designated areas.

This gives the arrival point its own contact and keeps the patrol focused on the wider property. If you already employ gate staff, our handler can support them rather than replace the existing team.

We help organise the information needed for expected access and the management contact for questions. The quotation makes the staffing and responsibilities clear so the customer knows what each position provides.

Specialist drug detection for workplaces and events

Our trained detection handlers supply sniffer dog hire for a defined search assignment. Workplaces can book one visit or discuss recurring searches with the Fast K9 team.

We organise the search areas, operating period and nominated representative. The handler directs the dog in recognising trained target odours and communicates relevant findings through the agreed route.

Your general security provision can continue while the specialist search takes place. A detection team is different from a general-purpose dog patrol, so the services are separately described and priced.

For events and venues, we coordinate with the organiser and existing personnel. Guarding for equipment before opening or after closing can be included as an additional provision where required.

Incident reporting you can revisit

When an officer submits an incident report, it is emailed to the client. Your portal retains incident history and provides access to shared documents.

That is useful when the person responsible for the yard returns in the morning or needs to pass a reported concern to another colleague. The recorded account provides a starting point without relying on a chain of verbal messages.

Operations coordinates follow-up communication and maintains the contact route with assigned personnel. Hourly photographs support regular guarding updates, while incidents have their own record.

Arrange cover around collection and return times

Before the assignment, we organise the patrol areas, access information and booked hours with you. A temporary period can follow the time equipment is waiting for collection, while a regular service can match the business's closing routine.

If a collection or return date changes, speak to operations about the revised period. We explain the updated booking and charges rather than leave different people working from different timings.

At handover, relevant reported matters can be passed to your representative. The service can continue into a new schedule when the operation resumes or changes.

Tilbury postcode coverage: RM18

We serve Tilbury within RM18, including the wider district covering East Tilbury and West Tilbury. We also accept enquiries for nearby premises. Coverage of a postcode district describes the service area; the full site address identifies the particular booking.

Call 0203 668 3654 for yard security, canine patrols or specialist detection.

Clarify expected access before the yard closes

An expected visitor, a contractor attending work and somebody collecting equipment may require different contact arrangements. The security instruction should identify how the relevant question reaches the responsible representative.

That helps the entrance role handle the arrival while the patrol continues around the property. It also gives the handler a clearer understanding of normal activity during the shift.

We organise those duties with you before the assignment. You can keep existing access staff or include an officer in the quotation. The service remains focused on the work required rather than assuming one dog handler can maintain a fixed gate position and patrol elsewhere simultaneously.

Clear prices before you book

Selected planned, recurring security dog-handler assignments start from £16.50 + VAT per hour. This starting rate does not apply automatically to every booking. Your quotation identifies the service, hours, applicable rate and any additional charges.

Single shifts, temporary projects, urgent requirements, nights, weekends and bank holidays can all be quoted. Drug detection dog hire is priced separately for the search assignment. If you want guarding and detection together, we explain both elements in the proposal.

Start with a short enquiry

Call 0203 668 3654 or request a free quote. Tell us your location, the service you want and your preferred dates. You do not need to prepare a finished site plan, risk assessment or security specification before making contact.

We help organise the working details, explain the cover and provide a written quotation. Whether you are booking for your own business, a managed property or another security company, you have a direct route to the team arranging the service.
