About us

A London event security company that does it properly

SIA-licensed, fully insured and locally rooted — we plan security around your event, not a template.

Shoreditch Security was built on a simple idea: event security should be professional, proportionate and transparent. Too many organisers have been let down by under-trained staff, vague pricing or teams that are either over-sold or dangerously thin. We do the opposite — vetted, SIA-licensed officers, one clear price, and a team sized to the actual risk of your event.

What we stand for

  • Properly licensed and vetted. Every officer holds a valid front-line SIA licence, verified on the register, and is screened to BS 7858.
  • Right-sized, never over-sold. We use your guest numbers, layout and risk to recommend the correct team — and we will tell you when you need less, not just more.
  • Transparent pricing. One all-inclusive quote, with no surprise uplifts for travel or “management”.
  • Local knowledge. Based in the capital, we know London’s venues, boroughs, transport and licensing — and the Home Counties’ wedding, raceday and corporate scene.

Credentials

  • SIA-licensed officers
  • Public liability insured to £10m
  • ACS Pacesetters approach
  • NQ Level 2 trained stewards

How we work

We start by understanding your event — guest profile, venue, timings and any concerns — then produce a written plan and a transparent quote. On the day, your team arrives early and briefed, led by a named supervisor on larger jobs, and we follow up with an incident log and recommendations. It is the same disciplined process whether you are booking two officers for a birthday or a full festival operation.
