Solihull, West Midlands

Security GuardsSolihull

Solihull is the safest borough in the West Midlands at 86 crimes per 1,000 — but lower crime does not mean no threat. The NEC, Birmingham Airport, and a concentration of high-value business parks attract organised, professional criminal operations rather than opportunistic local crime.
Intelligence-Led Security

Solihull's high-value landscape
attracts a different class of threat.

Solihull's crime rate of 86 per 1,000 is the lowest in the West Midlands — but that statistic conceals the nature of the threat rather than its absence. The NEC, Birmingham Airport, Touchwood shopping centre, and the concentration of corporate headquarters and high-value business parks create a target landscape that attracts organised, professional criminal operations.

Vehicle crime in Solihull's commercial zones runs above the national average — and the borough's upmarket residential and retail areas make it a consistent target for organised burglary and high-value vehicle theft. Risk Secured provides close protection, corporate security guarding, mobile patrols, and CCTV deployment across Solihull — with VCIN vehicle intelligence checks on every patrol.

Solihull clients include corporate occupiers, managed business parks, retail operators, and residential estate managers who require a security provider that matches their standard of operation. Risk Secured's intelligence-led methodology, DOB·Live client portal, and direct senior management access deliver exactly that.

The Solihull
Threat Profile

01

High-Value Vehicle Theft

Solihull's concentration of high-net-worth residential areas and corporate car parks makes it a consistent target for organised vehicle theft. VCIN vehicle intelligence checks on Risk Secured patrols identify vehicles associated with active theft operations before incidents occur — including those flagged elsewhere in the national network.

02

Corporate & Business Park Security

Solihull's business park corridor — from Blythe Valley to the M42 junction estates — requires a calibre of security that matches the professional environment. Risk Secured's corporate guarding, access control, and DOB·Live reporting deliver that standard. No compromise.

03

NEC & Airport Events

The NEC and Birmingham Airport generate significant concentrations of high-value visitors, vehicles, and assets. Risk Secured's close protection and event security capability is directly applicable to the demands of the NEC corridor and airport commercial zone.

04

Retail — Touchwood & Surrounds

Touchwood and Solihull's retail core experience organised shoplifting and vehicle crime targeting retail car parks. Risk Secured's retail security and VCIN vehicle intelligence methodology addresses organised retail crime directly — not reactively.

Vehicle Intelligence Network
VCIN

VCIN vehicle intelligence checks run on every Risk Secured patrol in Solihull — particularly relevant given the borough's elevated vehicle crime profile and the concentration of high-value targets in the NEC corridor, Blythe Valley, and the Touchwood retail zone. Intelligence feeds into a national network that identifies organised vehicle theft operations before they reach Solihull.
