Imperial Security provides corporate security guards for offices, business centres and retail premises across Hammersmith, from the towers along Hammersmith Broadway to the multi-let office floors on Hammersmith Grove. We work with facilities managers, landlords and business owners who need front-of-house cover, access control, and out-of-hours protection for their buildings.
Our guards manage reception areas, control visitor and contractor access, patrol communal spaces, and respond to incidents so your staff and tenants can work without disruption.
Hammersmith's business district has grown into a dense mix of multi-tenant office buildings, particularly along Hammersmith Grove, where floors are let to several unrelated companies within a single building. That arrangement means shared reception desks, shared lifts and shared amenities such as gyms and break-out spaces, all of which need consistent access control so one tenant's visitors are not wandering unchecked past another's offices.
Hammersmith BID, the business-led organisation covering the town centre, lists security partnerships and a Women's Safety Forum among its current priorities, reflecting a district that takes evening and night-time safety around the Broadway and Kings Street seriously. Our guards work alongside that wider security picture rather than in isolation, applying the same standards whether the site is a standalone office or a unit within a larger retail or business complex.

| What Our Hammersmith Corporate Security Service Provides
Whether your building is a single-occupier headquarters or a multi-tenant office block, these are the duties our guards perform day to day.
Access control and monitoring
Our guards manage every entrance to your building, checking identification, issuing visitor passes and keeping accurate logs so only authorised staff and vetted guests get through.
Proactive patrolling and deterrence
Regular, unpredictable patrols of stairwells, car parks and communal areas around Hammersmith Grove and the Broadway spot problems before they escalate.
Emergency response and coordination
From a fire alarm to a medical incident, our guards act quickly, contain the situation and liaise directly with London Fire Brigade or the Metropolitan Police when needed.
Front-of-house presence
Guards are often the first point of contact for clients and visitors, so we select people who represent your business well while keeping reception secure and orderly.
Health and safety compliance
Our guards flag hazards, support fire evacuations and help ensure visitors and contractors follow your site's safety protocols.
Out-of-hours cover
Offices along Hammersmith Grove and Chalk Hill Road empty out in the evening, leaving equipment and server rooms unattended. Our guards provide overnight and weekend cover so buildings are never left unwatched.
| Who We Provide Corporate Security For In Hammersmith
Our guards support a broad range of businesses across Hammersmith's commercial core.
Multi-tenant office landlords
Buildings on Hammersmith Grove let floors to several unconnected companies, so landlords need a single guard team that all tenants can trust to control shared reception, lifts and amenity spaces fairly.
Corporate headquarters and single-occupier offices
Businesses with their own dedicated premises need consistent reception cover, visitor management and a security presence that reflects their brand to clients.
Retail units in Hammersmith's shopping centre
Stores trading near the Broadway's anchor retailers need visible security to manage footfall, deter theft and support staff during busy trading periods.
Professional services firms
Recruitment, financial and IT services firms occupying Hammersmith office floors need discreet, professional cover that does not disrupt client meetings or day-to-day business.
| The Security Problems We Solve In Hammersmith
Hammersmith's mix of dense office space, a major transport interchange and a busy retail centre creates specific pressures for the businesses working there.
Unmanaged access in shared buildings
Multi-tenant offices without a single security team on the door can end up with unchecked visitors moving freely between floors. We place guards at the main entrance to log and verify everyone entering, so each tenant knows who is in their building.
Footfall pressure near the transport interchange
Hammersmith's bus and tube interchange pushes heavy pedestrian traffic past ground-floor offices and retail units throughout the day. Our guards manage entrances during peak periods so genuine visitors are not held up and opportunist access attempts are turned away.
Quiet buildings after office hours
Once the working day ends, office floors and server rooms sit empty for long stretches. We provide evening and weekend patrols so unoccupied space is checked regularly rather than left unattended overnight.
Inconsistent visitor and contractor checks
Deliveries, maintenance contractors and interview candidates all need to be signed in and directed correctly. Our guards keep a consistent log and escalation process so nobody reaches office floors unannounced.
