Aspects of Maritime Security

Marina Security

Our marina security services are available to protect yachts and boats, moorings and onsite businesses. For important and busy marinas like Poole Quay Boat Haven and Plymouths Queen Anne's Battery & Yacht Haven keeping the boats and busineses secure from the attention of criminals is important. We offer a range of services including security patrols, access control and remote CCTV monitoring with incident response.

Onboard Security

From static onboard security guards checking and preventing unauthorised access when a ship is moored at the dock, to security teams accompanying the vessel to protect against the threats of piracy, illegal stowaways and organised crime, we can provide experienced maritime security personnel (some of whom are recruited from the armed forces) to ensure that every voyage is safe and trouble-free.

Port Security

Ports are known to be vulnerable targets for criminals but this is a situation that can be addressed with the right security in place. We offer port security services to protect the interests of the shipping, container and warehousing companies based in and around ports like Plymouth and Poole. From access control to mobile patrols and remote monitoring, Titan has been successfully providing port security guards and services for over 3 decades.

Ferry Terminal Security

We offer professional security personnel for security guard duties in ferry terminals and onboard the ferries. Whether you need access control measures like ticket and document checks for vehicles and passengers or an onboard security presence to ensure the safety of all passengers and crew, we can provide experienced SIA-registered security officers that blend tight security with customer assistance.

Ocean Infrastructure Security

We have the resources to provide protection for infrastructure like drilling rigs, tidal energy generators and wind farms situated in the seas around the south coast. We can offer static security guards, remote surveillance and emergency response and even oceangoing mobile security inspection visits. Regular reports keep you up to date with the condition and security status of these vital assets

Container Storage and Warehousing

In a fast moving environment like a port where where valuable goods transfer from sea to road in containers it`s important that security guards are alert, security processes are efficient and the system works to a carefully planned set of established protocols. Not a job for an inexperienced contractor. With more than 3 decades of experience, you can trust Titan to deliver a secure storage and transit environment.
