We hired celebrity close protection services from Westminster security, I want to say thank you very much and highly recommend them to others. Very good company and bodyguards! 5* review from us.

Another extremely happy customer of Westminster Security; having not booked security before, the whole process was alien to me. I was kindly and expertly guided through everything, this gave me the confidence to look elsewhere. But none were as professional or well priced, so I booked with Westminster. Everyone was impressed by the security guards - very smart, friendly and professional. Top marks all round.

Simply the best! No sales pressure, very professional and informative. Would not use or recommend any other security company in London. There are some cowboys out there, these guys put others to shame.

Very knowledgeable and extremely professional. We have used many security companies in the past before finding Westminster Security, none of them come near to the standard of customer service received from Westminster. And their staff are superb, all of them! You can tell a lot of work goes on behind the scenes. Highly recommended 5*.

Having read a load of reviews on line, and done a lot of research, I decided to call this company. They were very professional throughout my enquiry, never once pushy with sales like the others I called. Hired two bodyguards for a VIP event and will certainly use them again. Best security company in London for sure!

I used Westminster Security this weekend and I have been highly impressed by the professionalism from this company. From the first call to John to the last, everything request I made was tailor made and nothing was too much for them to handle. Absolutely brilliant. I will be using them again. I most certainly recommend them without any hesitation. A big thank you to all involved.

I contacted 3 other security companies in London before deciding to use Westminster, the other companies seemed pushy and quite desperate for my custom. Westminster listened to my concerns and gave me a number of options to consider depending on my budget - they were worth every penny and I'm glad I chose them over the others!
