    What you are buying when you hire a detection team

    A drug detection booking is a specialist search assignment. The handler directs the detection dog through the designated task, recognises relevant indications and communicates with the client contact. The visit is organised around an agreed purpose and accessible search areas, rather than an assumption that a dog simply attends and every security responsibility transfers to it.

    You can arrange a single visit before considering a longer programme. Our team will explain the proposed attendance and the information needed to organise it. A useful first conversation identifies the premises, the intended date and why a search is wanted. We can then work through the practical arrangements with your representative, keeping the buying process straightforward while giving the handler a clear task when the team arrives.

    Organise the handover at the start of the visit

    The nominated representative provides a point of contact for access and practical questions. If several staff members are involved, identify who can clarify the agreed scope and who receives the handler's communication. This avoids the search team receiving different instructions from people with different expectations.

    It is helpful to distinguish the areas included in the visit from those outside it. The handler can then carry out the specialist work within an understandable arrangement. Your organisation continues to manage its own procedures and decisions; the detection service supports those responsibilities rather than taking them over. We explain the visit in those practical terms so a first-time customer understands the process without needing to prepare a complex document before making an enquiry.

    Add canine guarding when a patrol is also needed

    If you need security presence before or after a search, our general-purpose dog handlers can provide a separate patrol assignment. The handler works with the dog under control, covering the designated premises during the purchased hours. Day, night and weekend requirements can be discussed alongside the detection enquiry.

    Keeping the roles separate makes the proposal useful. A specialist search does not automatically leave a guard on site, and a general patrol does not automatically include detection. We can provide either service independently or explain a combined arrangement. Where a fixed entrance role is required, security officers can also be included. You can choose the work with a clear purpose instead of purchasing a broad package whose duties are difficult to understand.

    Make the communication useful after attendance

    Our client portal provides incident history and shared documents for customers. When an officer submits an incident report through the working system, the client receives an email notification. This gives the relevant representative a record to revisit after the immediate conversation, including when a colleague takes over responsibility.

    For canine patrol assignments, hourly photographs support the activity updates. Operational coordination provides the route for assignment questions and changes, with the app and other communication channels supporting the attending personnel. The reporting arrangement should be clear about who receives information and who manages any follow-up on the client side. A record is most useful when the responsible person can locate it and understand which assignment or observation it concerns.

    Decide whether a repeat programme has a purpose

    A recurring service should have a clear reason in your organisation's arrangements, rather than being purchased simply because a one-off visit occurred. We can discuss the intended frequency, search scope and practical access for future attendance. Each confirmed booking then has an understandable role in the wider programme.

    When comparing offers, consider the actual specialist work, attendance arrangements and communication as well as the price. If general guarding is proposed too, make sure its hours and duties are separately identifiable. We can explain the charging basis and answer questions before you confirm the service. You can begin with one known requirement and discuss further work later, keeping the initial decision focused on the support your premises needs now.

    Angel and nearby postal coverage

    We accept Angel enquiries in N1 and nearby EC1V premises on the southern side of the area. Postal districts overlap wider Islington and central London neighbourhoods; they do not provide an exact outline of Angel. Use the full attendance address when booking a search or patrol.

    Training, licensing and insurance

    Fast K9 Security Limited holds ISO 9001 certification, SafeContractor approval and Constructionline Gold membership. Public liability insurance is in place. Relevant security personnel hold valid SIA licences, our general-purpose security dog handlers hold NASDU Level 2 handler training, and drug detection assignments use trained specialist handlers.

    These credentials sit alongside the practical service you receive: personnel carrying out defined duties, operations coordinating the assignment and reports that keep you informed. Our team can discuss the relevant supporting information with your procurement or facilities representative.

    Clear prices before you book

    Selected planned, recurring security dog-handler assignments start from £16.50 + VAT per hour. This starting rate does not apply automatically to every booking. Your quotation identifies the service, hours, applicable rate and any additional charges.

    Single shifts, temporary projects, urgent requirements, nights, weekends and bank holidays can all be quoted. Drug detection dog hire is priced separately for the search assignment. If you want guarding and detection together, we explain both elements in the proposal.

    Questions about a first detection booking

    Can I book just one specialist visit?

    Yes. A single drug detection attendance can be arranged independently of recurring work, with the scope and contact arrangements explained in the proposal.

    Who should meet or coordinate with the handler?

    Nominate a representative who can deal with access and practical questions and receive the handler's communication for the agreed visit.

    Can you also provide security after the search ends?

    Yes. We can quote a separate canine patrol or guarding role for the required hours, clearly distinguished from the specialist search attendance.

    Can we discuss a recurring programme later?

    Yes. Start with the visit you need now, then discuss the purpose, frequency and arrangements for further attendance with our team.
