Pay attention to the changeover
A site can become particularly busy when one workforce leaves and another arrives. Vehicle movements, deliveries and staff access may overlap with the security handover.
We can organise dog-handler patrols alongside a fixed entrance officer, keeping the wider premises under the patrol assignment while arrivals are managed separately. The booked hours should reflect the actual changeover rather than leaving an unexplained gap between two shifts.
Keep security continuous through the changeover
Fast K9 Security Limited provides dog-handler guarding around the hours your premises actually operates. We can cover a shift change, overnight period or continuing schedule with the start and finish clearly identified.
The handler patrols designated buildings, boundaries and access points. A separate security officer can manage arrivals where the entrance needs a fixed presence, allowing the wider property to remain part of the patrol assignment.
This is useful when employees, deliveries and contractors overlap. The security arrangement can reflect that activity instead of treating the whole site as empty as soon as one team finishes.
Hourly patrols with a team coordinating the work
Our handlers conduct hourly patrols and submit photographs every hour. Operations maintains communication, reviews submitted information and provides the route for relevant changes to the assignment.
The handler records concerns through the incident process. You receive a managed service with physical cover on site and an operational contact behind it.
We supply security for warehouses, yards, working projects, commercial properties and other premises requiring protection. The booking can be one shift or an ongoing contract, with supporting officers and CCTV available as part of a broader arrangement.
Drug detection around your workplace timetable
Our trained specialist detection handlers provide searches for workplaces in West Thurrock. We can organise an individual visit or a recurring programme through the nominated customer contact.
The dog searches for trained target odours under the handler's direction. Relevant findings are communicated to your representative, with the search scope and period organised for the assignment.
A detection visit can fit alongside your existing guarding. Officers remain responsible for their assigned positions, while the specialist team concentrates on the search. If you need canine patrols outside that visit, we can arrange them as a separate service.
Events and venues can also book detection teams. We coordinate with the organiser and wider security provision so the specialist role has a clear place in the operating schedule.
Keep the next manager informed
When a reported concern crosses from one working shift to another, the record should remain accessible. Our submitted incident reports are emailed to the client and available in the portal history.
Shared documents can also be accessed through the portal. A manager arriving later can refer to the reported account rather than depend on whoever happened to receive the first message.
Smartoo supports planned shifts, attendance entries and activity records. Those capabilities help operations follow the assignment, while customer reporting concentrates on the relevant incident and service information.
Organise the handover before the busy period
We help work through access duties, patrol areas and the communication route before cover begins. If one team is leaving while another arrives, the booked hours can reflect the overlap.
During the assignment, changes are coordinated through operations. At the finish, relevant reported matters can be passed to the returning customer representative.
For continuing contracts, weekday and weekend hours can differ. If your operating pattern changes, speak to the team about revising the next booking rather than relying on an old schedule.

Identify who holds responsibility during the changeover
A workforce handover and a security handover may occur at different times. When planning the assignment, consider the period in which staff depart, arrivals continue and the next team begins.
The booked security hours should make that transition understandable. A separate entrance role can remain focused on access while the dog handler continues the wider patrol.
For the customer, this is a useful way to review the proposed staffing. It shows which duties continue through the busy period and who receives relevant information afterwards. Our team helps organise the timetable and contact route so the next shift starts with the appropriate instructions.
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.
