Eliminating Trespass from Every Angle
When a client came to Overt after repeated problems with unwanted trespassers, we did not drop in a single product and hope for the best. We combined SIA-licensed guards, Overt Detect wireless system, 24/7 monitoring and our nationwide infrastructure into one joined-up service. The result was continuous visibility and real peace of mind.
Brief Summary
A client facing ongoing unauthorised access needed more than cameras left recording overnight or a guard on a fixed rota. Overt adapted existing services into a single layered solution: on-site SIA security officers, Overt Detect wireless video detection, live 24/7 monitoring, and national infrastructure that keeps the site visible around the clock. Previous gaps were closed from every direction.
The site had a history of unwanted trespassers. Incidents were not always caught in time. Isolated measures left blind spots: cameras without live viewing, patrols that could not be everywhere at once, and limited visibility once staff left for the day. That created risk to development, disruption, and the constant worry that the same problem would return.
How Overt Can Help
We treated the problem as one system, not four separate add-ons.
- SIA-licensed security guards provide a visible, trained presence on site. They deter, challenge and respond in person.
- Overt Detect (Wireless Video Detection) adds rapid-deployed cameras with real-time reporting so activity is seen as it happens, not the next morning.
- 24/7 monitoring means trained operators watch feeds and alerts continuously, so verified incidents get a fast, informed response.
- Nationwide infrastructure gives consistent coverage, GPS tracked logged, real time reporting.
Together they create overlapping protection: physical presence, electronic detection, live human oversight and national reach. Nothing is left to a single point of failure.
Outcome
The previous pattern of trespass was addressed from all angles. The client gained continuous visibility instead of after-the-fact evidence, a clear deterrent on the ground, and the knowledge that if something happens it will be seen and acted on. That combination delivered the peace of mind they needed: the issues that brought them to us were no longer left to chance.
If your site has similar gaps — trespass, isolated cameras, or coverage that stops when the last person leaves — a tailored combination of the same services can close them. One conversation is enough to start a site survey.
