Door Supervisors act as a deterrent.
They will help make your genuine visitors and guests feel welcome and safe.
They can help to answer any questions visitors may have, and if you can’t be at your premises yourself, you can ask supervisors to welcome people into the building.
Door supervisors help people feel safe, secure, and welcome.
Help you to meet your licensing requirements.
After all, if you are hosting new clients or customers, you are naturally going to want to make a good impression. Therefore, door supervisors can help you to secure your premises as well as to make sure your public knows where they are going, and what they need to do.
They are a fantastic help when you are hosting an event or a welcome day, for example. In this situation, you can rely on them to show guests where they need to be and set expectations. You’re not always going to be able to do this yourself, which is all the more reason why you should ask door supervisors for help!
Security Guards and Door Supervisors are two sides of the same coin, both closely related in purpose, but with differing amounts of authority and responsibility. Whilst a licensed door supervisor can act as a security guard, a security guard even with the required license cannot take the place of a door supervisor. All of our Security Personnel hold valid SIA Door Supervisor Licences as a minimum.
