Vacant Property Security
Protecting What’s Left Behind Until It’s Ready Again
Empty buildings are easy targets for vandalism, theft, squatting, and arson. Whether it’s a residential property awaiting sale, a commercial unit under renovation, or a public sector asset temporarily out of use vacant properties need protection.
At A&R Security Consultancy, we provide tailored, cost effective vacant property security solutions across Scotland to ensure your asset stays safe, secure, and compliant.

Why Vacant Property Security Is Essential
Unoccupied sites face unique risks:
• Break-ins and metal theft
• Vandalism and anti social behaviour
• Squatters and unauthorised occupancy
• Fires, leaks, or structural damage left unnoticed
• Higher insurance premiums or invalidated cover
We mitigate these threats through professional, visible, and responsive protection.
