Vacant Property Security
Safeguarding Unoccupied Sites from Trespass, Theft, and Damage
Vacant properties are among the most vulnerable to criminal activity and environmental damage. Whether your premises are between tenants, awaiting sale or renovation, or temporarily closed, Shieldshed’s Vacant Property Security services provide robust protection to ensure your asset remains secure, compliant, and intact.
We combine physical guarding, advanced surveillance, and rapid response to prevent unauthorized access, deter vandalism, and mitigate costly risks.
Why Vacant Properties Need Protection
An empty building can quickly attract:
Trespassers and squatters
Vandalism and graffiti
Theft of materials, fixtures, or equipment
Fire hazards and water damage
Unauthorised use or anti-social behaviour
These risks can lead to significant financial loss, insurance complications, and long-term structural damage if left unchecked.
