Frequently asked questions

Questions about close protection

Ask us a question
  • Is close protection discreet?

    It can be, and at BPS we put our clients' discretion first. Our operatives blend into their surroundings and keep a low profile while providing effective protection, so clients can go about their lives without drawing unwanted attention.

  • How much does close protection cost?

    Every deployment is different, so the cost is shaped by what yours needs: the number of operators, how long you need them for, travel, the level of risk and any vehicles. We agree the costs with you before anything starts, and we work within your budget, whether it is a single event or a long-term task.
