Drones Unit
Guarding

The Drones UNIT is Protection UNIT’s service specialising in drone-based security solutions.

The effectiveness of our prevention, control and human surveillance solutions can be further enhanced with our drones. More precisely, they are as useful for automatic patrols as for “removal of doubt” operations.

A drone will clearly never replace a human security guard. Nevertheless, this technology does offer the operator an extra set of eyes, providing a significantly higher level of security for both the security guard and the customer’s site.

For each need, it is essential to strike the right balance between human input and technology. In this connection, we put our expertise at the service of your site’s security by putting together a coherent, customised and economically attractive comprehensive solution.

We support you in every phase of the project, from risk analysis and needs assessment to the proposal of a suitable machine and equipment, along with a tailor-made training programme. Moreover, all administrative procedures with the authorities (BCAA) are handled by the Drones UNIT.

OUR PILOTS

The Drones UNIT consists of a pool of experienced pilots holding a remote pilot licence (class 1) and a “Security guard” certificate.

We ensure that our pilots practice very regularly while taking into account the real-life conditions they will encounter in the field.
