Remote Patrol

Professional Remote Patrol Services

RMS provides advanced remote patrol services in the UK, using CCTV and video-based monitoring to deliver consistent, reliable site security without the need for physical guards.

Our NSI Gold accredited monitoring centre carries out scheduled and reactive patrols across your site, identifying risks, suspicious activity, and security issues in real time.

What is Remote Patrol?

Remote patrol is a video-based security patrol service where trained operatives monitor your site using strategically placed CCTV cameras. Instead of relying solely on physical patrol guards, our team conducts regular patrols remotely, checking key areas, identifying risks, and responding to incidents as they happen. This provides continuous, consistent coverage across your entire site.

How Remote Patrol Works

Our remote CCTV patrol service connects your camera system directly to our 24/7 monitoring centre. During each patrol:

  1. Operators log into your CCTV system
  2. Cameras are checked systematically across the site
  3. Vulnerable areas are reviewed in detail
  4. Any suspicious activity is identified and assessed
  5. Action is taken, including alerts, announcements, or escalation

Our team can also carry out additional checks to ensure nothing is missed and your site remains fully secure, such as:

  • Gate and barrier status
  • Lighting conditions
  • Site access points
  • Health and safety risks

Why Remote Patrol is Important

Traditional patrol methods can leave gaps in coverage, meaning incidents may go undetected. A remote patrol service ensures your site is monitored consistently, with trained operators able to identify threats early and take action immediately. By combining technology with expert monitoring, remote patrol provides a smarter, more efficient approach to site security.
