Security & Close Protection

Discreet protection that travels at the speed of your day.

SIA-licensed close protection officers, security-trained chauffeurs, residential security and discreet risk management — coordinated alongside your existing teams.

Security is woven through everything K2 does. Every chauffeur on our fleet is enhanced-DBS checked and trained in defensive driving; on top of that, we field a dedicated close protection team of SIA-licensed officers drawn from military, police and royalty protection backgrounds. Whether you need a single low-profile escort to a London dinner or a full multi-vehicle convoy for a visiting principal, the team works to your threat profile — not a template.

Our security desk handles advance reconnaissance, secure route planning, hotel and venue liaison, residential security for London and Surrey homes, and discreet protection for private events, weddings and family travel. We coordinate quietly with your existing PA, family office, in-house security and travel teams — no badges, no theatre, no disruption to the day.

Convoys
Multi-vehicle convoys & motorcades
