For more than 30 years, we’ve built a trusted security bollard business dedicated to enhancing safety across the UK. While we’ve grown significantly, our commitment to our core values remains steadfast. Learn more about our journey below.
Founded in 1992 by George ‘Tony’ Hamerton, our company began with the goal to improve perimeter security for car dealerships across the UK. After an early career working with some of the world’s most recognised automotive brands, Tony spotted a significant gap in the market. Partnering with the Great British Bollard Company (now Marshalls Street Furniture) as the main agent for the East of England, Tony set out to build a business focusing on providing top-quality security solutions.
In his Bedford Rascal van loaded with demonstration bollards, Tony drove across the country and grew his business into a trusted provider. He supplied and installed perimeter security solutions for hundreds of car dealerships, including bollards, barriers, fencing and CCTV. Along the way, he introduced a bollard servicing offering, with Annual Servicing Plans designed to keep our clients’ security solutions in top condition year-round.
For over 30 years, we’ve built a reputation for delivering exceptional customer service, which has led to long-standing, highly valued relationships with many of our clients. Much of our business comes from customers who have trusted us for decades, a testament to our dedication to high-quality service and support.
In 2022, Tony’s son, James, took the helm. James brought a fresh perspective to the business after a successful career in Sales and Project Management in London’s office design and fit-out sector. His goal has been to modernise and expand, ushering the company into its next chapter of growth. This transformation includes adopting new, streamlining technologies, expanding our product range, and enhancing our supplier network to better serve our existing and new customers.
Now, two years into this exciting new era, we’ve grown stronger than ever. With a supply and installation service covering the entirety of the UK, plus shorter lead times thanks to our new warehouse facility, we are ready for the future. We are proud to say that while our company continues to evolve, our core values remain unchanged: “Deliver outstanding customer service and always do right by our clients and partners.”
At the heart of everything we do is the personal touch that comes from being a family business. We look forward to a bright future, helping our customers protect their premises and assets with the same dedication and care we’ve shown for over 30 years.
