The challenge

Standard Fuel Oils is an independent, family-run fuel supplier delivering nationwide from its head office and 24-hour truck stop on Knowsley Industrial Park. The site is busy day and night, with tankers coming and going, drivers refuelling and office staff at work.

That mix brings real security demands. Bulk fuel silos are a high-value target and a serious safety risk, the offices hold sensitive commercial information, and HGV drivers need access to parts of the site without being able to wander into the rest of the building. Standard Fuels needed one partner who could secure all of it, and grow with the business as it added more sites.

Approach and impact

We started at the Knowsley head office with a full site survey, looking at the yard, the silos, the truck stop and the office building as one connected picture rather than separate problems.

Monitored CCTV now covers the yard, the entrances and the fuel silos, giving round-the-clock eyes on the most valuable and most hazardous parts of the site. Any activity that needs attention is picked up and acted on straight away.

The offices are protected by a monitored intruder alarm. Both the alarm and the CCTV are set and unset through a single app, so the team can manage the whole site from their phone without juggling systems.

Door access control keeps the building working the way it should. Truck staff can reach the areas they need, while offices and restricted spaces stay locked to everyone without the right credentials.
