How much does Security guarding cost in Coventry? (2026 price guide)

A single static security guard typically costs £15-£25 per hour, mobile patrol visits usually run £20-£40 per visit, and event or door supervision staff commonly cost £18-£30 per hour depending on the level of cover required.

Rates depend on shift length and timing, since night and weekend shifts cost more, whether guards are SIA licensed for door supervision or CCTV monitoring, insurance requirements, and how many guards are needed on site.

Always confirm SIA licensing for any regulated activity, and ask whether quotes include supervision, reporting and holiday or sickness cover, as these are sometimes charged as extras.
