Call 0203 668 3654 to discuss your event dates.
Cover the event's different stages
Equipment may arrive before the public opening. Contractors may return after guests leave. Security responsibilities therefore need to reflect the build, the event itself and the breakdown.
Dog-handler guarding can protect designated working areas and provide patrols during unattended periods. Security officers can manage access points, while specialist detection teams carry out the search role arranged for the event. These are separate duties, and we explain which team covers each one.
Security for the whole event timeline
Your event has more than one working day: equipment arrives, contractors prepare the venue, guests attend and the site is cleared afterwards. Fast K9 Security Limited can provide canine guarding and specialist detection for the stages where you need them.
Before opening, a dog-handler patrol can cover designated equipment areas and the premises after the build crew leaves. During public operating hours, trained detection handlers can work alongside the event team. After closing, guarding can continue until the booked handover or collection period.
Separating these roles makes the service easier to buy and manage. You can see which hours cover patrol security, which cover searches and where supporting officers are needed. The quotation follows the event programme rather than assuming one dog team performs every security function.
K9 patrols for venues, projects and business premises
Our security dog handlers also support customers outside the event sector. We provide daytime and overnight guarding for construction work, commercial premises, storage areas, vacant properties and other sites requiring a physical presence.
The handler carries out hourly patrols, checks the designated access points and reports relevant observations. Photographs are submitted every hour, with operations coordinating communication throughout the shift. The dog remains under the handler's control.
Where a reception or entrance must stay staffed, a security officer can hold that position while the handler checks other areas. CCTV can be added to the wider arrangement, giving you a combination of services with clear responsibilities.
Drug detection that fits the event operation
Our specialist handler works with your nominated organiser or security manager to arrange the search task. The timing, operating area and contact route are established so entry staff know how detection fits alongside their responsibilities.
The dog searches for trained target odours, with the handler directing the work and communicating relevant findings. Admission decisions and any subsequent action remain with the responsible personnel under the event's arrangements.
Workplace customers can book the same specialist expertise for a property search or repeat visits. We organise the visit with your representative and keep the scope clear. You can request a detection quotation even if another company already supplies your guards.
Keep the organiser informed
Fast K9 Security Limited's reporting connects the officer's submitted incident with the customer. Reports are emailed when entered, and the client portal provides access to incident history and shared documents.
For an event involving several management contacts, we organise who should receive the information. A person reviewing the report afterwards can see the recorded account rather than reconstructing it from scattered messages.
Smartoo supports shift schedules and assignment instructions. These help operations keep the handler's information aligned with the current programme, including changes to setup times, access or the finish of the booking.
Romford and wider postal-area coverage
We provide cover in central Romford, including RM1 and RM7, and across the wider Romford postal districts RM2, RM3, RM4, RM5 and RM6. Those wider districts include separate surrounding places; they are not all central Romford. Multi-address enquiries are welcome.
Call 0203 668 3654 for event dog handlers, drug detection or site security in Romford.
Build the security quotation from the event programme
List the phases that need people on site: equipment arrival, preparation, public opening, overnight storage and removal. Each phase can need a different role.
A patrol covering stored equipment is different from a detection team attending during a search period. An officer handling contractor access is another position again. Identifying those roles helps an organiser understand whether a proposed package covers the whole requirement or only part of it.
You do not need to purchase every role for every hour. We can organise the proposed services around the event schedule and explain the boundaries between them. That gives the person approving the cost a clearer basis for the booking.
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.

Plan your site coverClear 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.
