Detection Dogs
We respect our dogs for a reason: they are the best at what they do! Our detection dogs have proven this to be the case again and again.
Good security often relies on expert observation.
An experienced patrol dog and handler team are an invaluable tool for any port facility. Canines naturally use a mixture of tracking and air-scenting to hunt and survive in the wild – and we have harnessed this skill to serve our clients’ needs, allowing us to search whenever and wherever necessary.
A canine has thousands to millions of times the scent ability of humans. A good handler will be able to read their dog’s movement, posture, stance, tail carriage and so on to find people – an intruder, for example – or articles carrying human scent.
This can be essential to the smooth running of a port, where unauthorised access needs to be tracked, evidenced and resolved rapidly. Not only that, but ultimately – and should the need arise – our canine partners are also trained to be ready and able to protect you.
Here’s Kopek Patrol Dog Mishka clearly indicating a find during a routine patrol of a Port: first she makes an initial indication with a turn of her head (top left); then she offers clearer indication and definite interest (top right). She then homes in on the point of scent (bottom left) – and achieves precision and confirmation (bottom right).
Security should be reliable.

We bring the same emphasis on attention to detail, de-escalation and quiet efficiency to all of our dog-handling services.
We’re a human-level business: we believe that treating staff and clients like people achieves more productive relationships – and more secure sites.
At Kopek Security, we take the safety of our clients seriously. Keyholding makes that commitment literal: we take on the responsibility of being your back-up, your fail-safe; you entrust your keys to us for … well, safe-keeping.
Not all loads are created equal – some are more valuable than others. When your HGV is carrying a cargo that counts, our High-Value Vehicle Escort services are there to provide the practical defences – and the visible deterrents – that are needed to be sure valuable goods reach their destination.
Physical security guards provide a range of services: they are a visible deterrent and an emergency response team; they can prevent injury and loss, deal with harassment or damage.
When it comes to security, sometimes there’s a lot of ground to cover. That’s where mobile patrols can come into their own, offering a visible presence across a distributed area.
Vacant properties have security concerns all of their own – and many insurance companies understand this, requiring vacant property inspections as a term of their policies. We understand that this is an important responsibility – and we deliver void property inspections that do more than tick a box.
Our approach to events and stewarding is full service: every element of our capacity can be deployed to any event: from manned guards to dog handlers, emergency response teams to mobile CCTV towers, we look at every aspect of an event to understand exactly what shape our security approach should take.
We prioritise responsiveness at all times – it’s part of our commitment to your security. But swift action is never more important than in an emergency situation – and you can rely on Kopek to provide it.
It’s logistics that makes the world go around. Fleets of trucks – and of truck drivers – ensure that cargoes reach their destination, on time and on budget, so that consumers can access the goods they need. And logistics security ensures they get there safely.
Keeping people and properties safe from fire is among the most important – and fundamental – responsibility our clients have. At events and sites across the country, they trust us and our fire marshals to make sure that everything is as it should be – and the potential for damaging incidents is eliminated.
We’ve all seen it happen: an alarm sounds at a premises for what can seem like hours, and no one seems to care. Needless to say, this isn’t what alarms are for – they are meant to elicit a response. Don’t let your property go untended – line up an alarm response service you can trust.
