Situation

Venture has been providing frontline defence for LCB’s Dinton Wood Storage Facility in Salisbury since 2017. Set in 100 acres of secluded woodland on the site of a former Military RAF ammunition storage depot, LCB Dinton encompasses various buildings and a series of heavily reinforced concrete subterranean chambers, embedded within the hillside.

The company called on Venture’s services following a poor experience with a previous supplier, where consistency, quality, capability and reliability was lacking. This included officers regularly turning up late, meaning LCB had to resolve guarding duties that should have been fulfilled thoroughly by the contractor. LCB also received little communication from the security provider.

After hearing about Venture from various associates and being impressed by the comprehensive proposal provided, LCB appointed Venture to handle its security requirements. LCB now benefits from the experience and professionalism of Venture’s team.

Task

LCB required a reliable security solution to manage their Dinton Wood Storage Facility, ensuring the protection of their premises, staff, and valuable stock. The goal was to replace the inconsistent service of the previous provider with a dependable and professional security presence.

Action

Venture Security implemented a comprehensive security strategy for LCB Dinton, which included:

  • Manned guarding outside of office hours
  • Onsite CCTV monitoring
  • Perimeter and building patrols
  • Deployment of locally based security officers

This approach ensured that the facility was consistently monitored and protected by trained professionals familiar with the area.

Results

A consistent, high quality and reliable security service

Locally based officers who understand the area

Comprehensive contingency plans ensure cover is always provided

Extra strain taken off LCB employees

The site is fully supported by trained security personnel

What appealed to us most about Venture is that they are experienced and locally based, with depth and strength in the team, which includes officers who are ex-military. They are very responsive and we have always received a consistently high quality and reliable service. Officers are respectful to our staff and the facility and being local, understand the area and its nuances. They are also discreet. I would definitely recommend.

James Temple, General Manager
