Security Services in Castleford and West Yorkshire

SPS Security delivers professional security services across Castleford and the surrounding West Yorkshire area. We provide security guarding, CCTV installation, access control, fire systems, lock and unlock services for retail parks and commercial premises, and vacant property inspections across the district. Our technical security work is delivered by SPS Technical — BAFE and SSAIB accredited — meaning guarding, technical systems and monitoring can all be handled by one provider. Castleford has seen significant retail and commercial development in recent years, most notably around Junction 32, and the surrounding Five Towns area has extensive logistics and industrial activity along the M62 corridor. Both create specific security requirements we have significant experience in addressing.

The Junction 32 outlet and retail development at Castleford is one of West Yorkshire's major retail destinations, generating significant footfall and associated security requirements. Alongside the retail sector, Castleford and the wider Five Towns area — Pontefract, Normanton, Featherstone and Knottingley — has extensive warehousing, logistics and industrial activity along the M62 and A1(M) corridors, with many operations running outside normal hours.

Crime rates in parts of Castleford and the surrounding area are above the national average for vehicle crime and commercial burglary. Retail parks and logistics operations in particular benefit from a combination of physical guarding, CCTV coverage and regular lock and unlock services.
