Frequently Asked Questions

Commercial security
questions, answered.

Answers to the most common questions we receive from facilities managers, property owners, and procurement teams across KwaZulu-Natal.

What is the minimum contract size for commercial security in KwaZulu-Natal?

+

Interceptor operates on a minimum deployment of 5 guards per site. This is the threshold at which rostered supervision, GPS-logged patrols, and dedicated site management become operationally viable. Smaller sites can be accommodated through a shared-coverage arrangement — contact us to discuss your specific requirements.

How much does manned guarding cost in Durban?

+

Commercial manned guarding rates in Durban are governed by the PSIRA Sectoral Determination 6 minimum wage structure, which sets a baseline cost per guard per month. The total contract cost depends on the number of guards deployed, shift patterns, supervisory structure, and any technology integration. We provide a full costed proposal within 48 hours of a site visit — at no charge and with no obligation.

What PSIRA grade guards do commercial sites require?

+

The required PSIRA grade depends on the risk profile and function of the site. Grade C officers handle access control and basic guarding duties. Grade B officers carry out supervisory and shift-leader functions. Grade A officers are site commanders. Most commercial business parks and shopping centres require a mix of Grade B and C officers with a Grade A site supervisor. We assess this during the site evaluation and specify it in the proposal.

Is Interceptor Rapid Response PSIRA-registered?

+

Yes. Interceptor Rapid Response (Pty) Ltd is registered with the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSIRA) under Registration Number 4509059. All personnel deployed by Interceptor hold current, valid PSIRA registration. Proof of registration is provided on request and available for verification on the PSIRA public register.

Do you service business parks and industrial sites, or only commercial offices?

+

We operate across the full commercial corridor of KwaZulu-Natal — business parks, shopping centres, industrial complexes, logistics hubs, warehousing facilities, manufacturing multi-tenants, and corporate office campuses. Our minimum deployment model is specifically designed for multi-tenant commercial sites rather than single residential properties.

What areas in KZN does Interceptor cover?

+

We provide commercial security services across the full KwaZulu-Natal province, with concentrated operational presence in Durban CBD and Point Waterfront, Umhlanga and La Lucia Ridge, Ballito and the Dolphin Coast, Westville, Hillcrest and Kloof, Pinetown, New Germany and Westmead, and Riverhorse Valley, Springfield and Cornubia. Extended coverage to other KZN nodes is available — contact us to confirm service to your specific location.

How quickly can you respond to an incident at a contracted site?

+

Contracted sites have direct access to our 24/7 command centre at 068 116 2887. Our on-site supervisors are the first point of response, backed by the command centre for escalation, additional guard deployment, and coordination with your designated emergency contacts. Response protocols are site-specific and are formally documented in the Service Level Agreement for every contract.

Do your guards use GPS patrol tracking?

+

Yes. All perimeter patrol rounds are GPS-logged through our guard-tracking system. Patrol data is verified digitally and included in the daily client report. This eliminates the possibility of undocumented patrols and gives facilities managers transparent, verifiable operational data rather than verbal assurances.

What is your compliance with Sectoral Determination 6?

+

Full compliance. Sectoral Determination 6 sets the minimum wage for the private security industry in South Africa. All Interceptor personnel are compensated at or above the SD6 threshold. This is non-negotiable and forms part of our ethical operating model — it also directly impacts personnel retention and guard quality, which benefits clients.

Can you manage contractor and visitor access at our site?

+

Yes. Access and visitor management is one of our three core service lines. We handle pedestrian entry, vehicle inspection and logging, contractor management, and visitor registers — all maintained to POPIA standards. Where a client already has a visitor management system (VMS), we integrate with it. Where they don't, we implement our own.

What CCTV and surveillance services does Interceptor offer?

+

We provide CCTV integration and remote monitoring, guard-tracking and patrol verification, and a client portal giving real-time visibility into your site. We work with your existing CCTV infrastructure or advise on system requirements as part of the site assessment. All incidents are logged digitally with timestamped records.

How do I request a proposal for my site?

+

Submit a site assessment request through our website or contact us directly on 068 116 2887 or via WhatsApp at wa.me/27681162887. We will schedule a site visit at no charge, conduct a risk assessment, and deliver a costed proposal within 48 hours. There is no obligation until you choose to proceed.
