Security Services Across London & Surrey
Hussar Security provides professional security services to businesses, venues, and event organisers throughout London and Surrey. Whether you need experienced door supervisors for a busy nightclub, reliable event security for a private function, site security for a construction project, or flexible cover at short notice, we deliver SIA-licensed officers you can depend on.
We founded Hussar Security because we saw an industry problem: too many security companies prioritise cost over quality, sending underqualified staff who compromise the protection their clients are paying for. We do things differently. Every officer on our team is SIA-licensed, experienced, and selected for their professionalism, composure, and ability to handle challenging situations.
From Central London to the Surrey suburbs, our security guards protect events, venues, commercial premises, and construction sites. We work with event planners who need seamless crowd management, venue managers who demand reliable door staff, and business owners who want visible, effective protection for their assets.
Event Security
Planning an event comes with enough challenges without worrying about security. Hussar Security provides experienced event security teams across London and Surrey, handling everything from crowd management and access control to emergency response and conflict resolution. Our officers work discreetly in the background, ensuring your guests stay safe while your event runs smoothly.
We've provided security for private parties, corporate functions, public concerts, sporting events, weddings, and exhibitions. Whatever the scale of your event, we tailor our approach to your specific requirements—because no two events are the same.

Door Supervisors & Venue Security
Your door staff are the first point of contact for every guest entering your venue. They set the tone for the night, manage who gets in, and handle any issues that arise. Hussar Security provides SIA-licensed door supervisors for clubs, bars, pubs, restaurants, and licensed venues across London and Surrey. These are officers who are firm when they need to be, but always professional and customer-focused.
We understand that door supervision isn't just about security but it's about customer experience. Our door staff are trained to be welcoming and approachable while maintaining control. They can spot trouble before it starts, de-escalate confrontations calmly, and ensure your venue stays safe without creating a hostile atmosphere.
What Our Door Supervisors Handle
- Entry management: Controlling who enters, checking IDs, and enforcing dress codes
- Capacity monitoring: Ensuring your venue stays within legal occupancy limits
- Queue management: Keeping queues orderly and managing guest expectations
- Internal patrols: Monitoring the venue floor, toilets, and problem areas
- Conflict resolution: Handling disputes, ejecting troublemakers, and calming situations
- Incident reporting: Documenting any issues for your records and licensing compliance
- Liaison with emergency services: Coordinating with police and paramedics when necessary
Venues We Work With
- Nightclubs and late-night venues
- Bars, pubs, and cocktail lounges
- Restaurants and hospitality venues
- Private members' clubs
- Hotels and leisure facilities
- Student unions and university venues
- Live music venues and theatres
- Markets & Shopping Centres
Why Our Door Staff Stand Out
- Fully SIA-licensed: Every door supervisor holds a valid SIA Door Supervisor licence, ensuring legal compliance.
- Experienced and reliable: We don't send inexperienced staff to learn on the job at your venue.
- Professional appearance: Smart, presentable officers who represent your brand well.
- Customer service trained: Firm but approachable, ensuring guests feel welcome.
- Consistent staffing: Where possible, we send the same officers so they know your venue and regulars.
Ad Hoc & Short-Notice Security Cover
Security needs don't always come with advance warning. Staff call in sick. Events get confirmed at the last minute. Unexpected situations require immediate cover. Hussar Security offers flexible, responsive security for urgent and short-notice requirements across London and Surrey.
We pride ourselves on being able to mobilise quickly without compromising on quality. When you need security at short notice, you still get experienced, SIA-licensed officers who are briefed, professional, and ready to work. We understand that urgent means urgent and so we respond accordingly.
When You Might Need Short-Notice Cover
- Staff sickness or no-shows at your venue
- Last-minute event bookings
- Temporary security for an unexpected situation
- Emergency cover while you source a permanent solution
- One-off assignments that don't justify a contract
- Covering gaps between security providers
What to Expect
- Quick response: We'll get back to you promptly and confirm availability as fast as possible.
- Same standards: Short notice doesn't mean lower quality. You get the same experienced officers.
- Clear communication: We'll keep you informed and confirm all details before deployment.
- Fair pricing: While urgent bookings may carry a premium, we won't take advantage.
Close Protection Services
For individuals who require personal security, Hussar Security offers discreet close protection services. Whether you're a business executive, public figure, or private individual facing a specific threat or concern, our officers provide dedicated protection tailored to your circumstances.
Close protection requires a different skill set to event or venue security. Our officers are trained to assess risks, plan secure routes, and provide unobtrusive protection that allows you to go about your life with confidence. All enquiries are handled with complete confidentiality.
Contact us directly to discuss your close protection requirements in confidence.

This depends on your event type, venue size, expected attendance, and risk factors. As a rough guide, one security officer per 100 guests is a common starting point for low-risk events, but this increases for licensed events, late-night functions, or higher-risk crowds. We'll recommend the right level of cover based on your specific situation.
A door supervisor is a specific SIA licence category for security staff working at licensed premises (venues serving alcohol) or managing queues and entry. Security guards hold a separate SIA licence for guarding property, premises, and people in non-licensed environments. We provide both, depending on your needs.

Contact us by phone, email, or the quote request form on our website. Let us know what type of security you need, where, when, and any specific requirements. We'll come back to you with a clear, no-obligation quote.
Look for SIA licensing (essential), relevant experience, clear pricing, good communication, and references or reviews if available. Be wary of companies offering significantly cheaper rates—this often means less experienced or underqualified staff. Your security is not the place to cut corners.
