MARCH 2015: Regency Security, one of the UK’s largest Private Security Companies, has today announced the acquisition of leading Private Security Company, Securidoor UK Ltd, based in the City of Southampton, Hampshire.The transaction is of major significance for the Private Security Industry and means Securidoor will now form part of The Regency Security Group.

The acquisition is the result of negotiations initiated by Regency Security as part of its ongoing strategy of expansion and is a natural progression for the rapidly growing business that already operates throughout the UK, with offices located in Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Birmingham.

The acquisition of Securidoor UK Ltd is a strategic win for Regency Security Group.With over 20 years of experience, Securidoor is well-respected within the Private Security Industry in the South Coast of England and is a healthy and profitable business.The company was also an ideal candidate for acquisition because it operates under a similar business model to Regency Security and shares the company’s strong focus on delivering quality and professional standards that surpass
industry and client expectations.

As part of the new venture, Regency Security will also be investing £1 million into modernising Securidoor’s current infrastructure to produce a state-of the-art facility. Gary Powers, Managing Director of Regency Security Group, said, “Securidoor has a solid growth trajectory and high potential for ongoing development within the South of England.
