So how can Titan Private Investigation help prevent Rural Crime?
Sting Vehicles
We’ve had some great results for victims of rural crime in the Midlands, specifically Nottingham, Leicester and Lincolnshire by deploying sting vehicles and trailers with monitoring equipment secreted covertly within them. Once the item is stolen we are able to direct the police to the perpetrators where they are detained and dealt with by the judicial system. We can either provide the sting vehicle/trailer or place our covert monitoring equipment onto your asset.
CCTV
We have a range of covert and overt camera equipment which will monitor your assets 24 hours a day and allows you to identify who, how and when these offences are occurring.
Lighting
This acts as a deterrent and when used in conjunction with CCTV can prove to be a relatively inexpensive method.
Alarms
A range of covert (silent) or overt alarms/triggers can be utilised to either scare the perpetrators away or to alert a covert strike team to detain them.
CROP (Covert Rural Observation Post)
Titan Private Investigation has a number of specialist operatives who are trained to build covert rural observation posts in remote areas whilst recording their observations. More information our our rural CROP surveillance service page.
