Our Public Authority Clients

We provide security systems and services throughout South Wales and the South West of England. Here are some of the public authorities we've worked with...

Jordana Weekley Senior Functions Coordinator National Museum Of Wales

"I was recommended Overt Security by a friend, they met with us on the day of enquiry and came to view the venue. We discussed the events held at the Museum and they were able to suggest and guide us with the staff set up, which was a great help. Upon request, Overt also provided Welsh speaking security guards, which was exactly what we were looking for. We have since used Overt Security on a number of occasions and will continue in the future."

Jeremy Griffiths Head of Security Cardiff Council

"I have worked with Overt on a number of projects across the Council. They are very professional and demonstrate their full experience and expertise, particularly when it comes to more intrusive or complex jobs.

Steve, the Director, has never failed to impress me with the level of industry knowledge and support he provides. I would have no hesitation in recommending Overt for security-related requirements."
