The ETG Security Team

The Role of a Door Supervisor: More Than Meets the Eye

Customer Service

Our staff serve as friendly, welcoming faces that represent your brand. They provide directions, explain entry policies, and engage positively with guests while remaining observant.

Entry Control

We manage queues efficiently, check IDs, apply age restrictions, and enforce guest lists or dress codes where required — always with discretion and professionalism.

Conflict Resolution

Should an incident arise, our teams are trained to de-escalate situations safely and legally, using conflict resolution skills as a first resort and physical intervention only when absolutely necessary.

Venue Policy Enforcement

We support your internal policies, whether it’s zero tolerance on drug use, smoking areas, or alcohol restrictions.

Emergency Support

In the case of fire, evacuation, or injury, our door supervisors act swiftly and according to pre-agreed emergency procedures.

Incident Reporting

All interactions are logged using detailed report forms and digital systems to support follow-ups, investigations, or licensing authority reviews.

Our Training & Compliance Standards

Every door supervisor we deploy is:

Specialist Door Security for Licensed Venues

Nightclubs and late-night venues are dynamic environments with unique challenges. Our teams are selected for their ability to balance authority with hospitality, creating a safe space without killing the vibe. We support:

  • Weekly club nights
  • Student events
  • Themed parties and DJ nights
  • Venue relaunches or security risk periods
  • VIP entrance management

We work closely with management, event promoters, and bar staff to ensure consistent communication and fast, coordinated responses to any incidents.

Private Event Door Security

Planning a wedding, corporate gala, or private celebration? Our discreet and professional door supervisors help manage:

  • Guest lists and RSVP check-in
  • Parking and crowd flow
  • Access points and valuables
  • Staff protection (catering, entertainment)
  • Close protection of VIPs and organisers if required

We blend into the setting with smart dress codes, polite interactions, and an understanding of the formal tone required at high-end events

Integrated Technology & Real-Time Monitoring

At ETG Security, we use modern security technology to support our personnel on the ground:

  • Body-worn cameras (where appropriate) for accountability
  • Digital check-in/out systems
  • Radio communication with venue staff
  • Incident management software
  • Lone-worker safety monitoring

You’ll receive digital incident logs and shift reports so you’re always informed.

Legal & Licensing Support

We are experienced in working with local authorities, police, and licensing officers to ensure full legal compliance and minimise risk to your business. Our services can help you:

  • Meet licensing conditions
  • Reduce anti-social behaviour
  • Submit incident records
  • Demonstrate proactive safety policies

We’ve helped many venues retain and renew licenses with confidence due to our professional conduct, low incident rates, and detailed reporting.

Client-Focused, Venue-Aligned

We treat every venue as an extension of our brand — and yours. Before assigning staff, we take time to:

  • Visit your venue
  • Understand your audience
  • Review recent incidents or patterns
  • Assess crowd flow, choke points, and vulnerabilities
  • Plan for special dates (paydays, holidays, headline events)

This preparation allows our guards to deliver seamless, integrated protection while aligning with your goals — whether that’s minimising confrontation, improving customer flow, or protecting a high-profile guest list.
