Security services in Essen

Office hub, trade fair city and building site all at once: Essen asks very different things of a security provider. Our expert team plans every assignment from the head office on Ruhrallee and knows its way around the patch.

On site

What matters in Essen

In Essen, corporate headquarters and administrative buildings in the Südviertel sit close to the shopping streets of the city centre. Rüttenscheid, home to the exhibition grounds and the Grugahalle, is where events happen, while the north around Altenessen and Borbeck has trading estates, storage yards and temporarily vacant premises to secure. New quarters are rising on former industrial land, with sites that keep materials and machinery outdoors for months. Because the Ruhr cities merge into one another, patrol routes rarely stop at the city boundary. Dark winter months also lengthen the hours in which a site would be unattended.

Operations for the Ruhr area are led from our head office on Ruhrallee in Essen. On request, the expert team of the security division visits your property, assesses access points, lighting and weak spots, and writes post orders for that exact location. You have one contact person who knows the officers on duty and goes through the reports with you. We define scope and hours together, and the resulting quote is free and without obligation.

Focus areas

Typical jobs in Essen

  1. Sites on former industrial land

    Large plots with many entrances are hard to oversee. We set checkpoints, patrol rounds and access rules so that materials, cable and machinery stay protected at night and at weekends.

  2. Reception in administrative buildings

    In office buildings of the Südviertel our staff handle reception, visitor registration and locking rounds. We match manner and procedures to your company so that security and hospitality fit together.

  3. Patrol routes across city limits

    If your sites are in Essen, Mülheim and Gelsenkirchen, we link them in one patrol route. Every check is recorded with time and findings and reported to you.

  4. Events in Rüttenscheid

    At company parties, conferences and festivals we manage admission, access control and parking. Staffing depends on visitor numbers, the grounds and the conditions set out in your permit.

FAQ

Frequent questions from Essen

Your question is not listed? Call us or send us a message – we answer personally.

When do I need a fire watch in Essen?

Typical triggers are a fire alarm system that is out of service, hot work such as welding or cutting, and conditions in the fire safety concept of a building. Insurers, the building authority or the operator usually decide whether one is needed. Tell us their requirements and we plan staff and rounds to match.

Do you also guard construction sites in neighbouring cities?

Our head office in Essen covers the entire Ruhr area. We plan sites in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Oberhausen, Bottrop, Bochum or Duisburg just like projects inside Essen: with a site visit, agreed patrol times and records that site management and the client can consult at any time.

Can you secure vacant commercial premises in the north of Essen?

Vacancy attracts vandalism, metal theft and unauthorised use. We check such premises on mobile patrol at varying times, inspect doors, windows and fences, and report damage with photos. If you wish, we coordinate the rounds with winter service or grounds care from our other divisions so the premises look looked after.
