Risk Assessments and Site Evaluations Across Cape Town
On-site assessments that identify risks and inform a site-specific security plan for your property.
LUM Security Solutions carries out on-site risk assessments and security evaluations for residential, commercial, retail, construction, event and public-sector premises across Cape Town and the wider Western Cape, turning what we find into practical recommendations for your protection plan.
What a Risk Assessment and Site Evaluation Means
A risk assessment and site evaluation is an on-site review of your premises that identifies the risks and vulnerabilities your security plan needs to address. Rather than deploying coverage and hoping it fits, the assessment looks at how your site is actually used and where it is exposed before any plan is put together.
At LUM Security Solutions, an assessment starts with a walkthrough of your premises. We review your entry points, perimeter, lighting, access routes and the security measures already in place, then evaluate what we find against how your site operates. The findings are turned into site-specific recommendations that inform where and how guarding, access control, response or surveillance should be deployed.
Every assessment includes
An on-site review of your premises
- On-site risk assessment
- Security site evaluation
- Tailored recommendations

What We Review on Your Site
An assessment is built around the areas of your premises that carry risk. A site walkthrough confirms which of these apply to your property.
Entry and exit points
Every gate, door and reception point is reviewed for how it is controlled and who can move through it.
Perimeter and boundaries
Fencing, walls and boundaries are checked for gaps, damage or sections that are easy to bypass.
Lighting and visibility
Lighting around access points and high-risk areas is reviewed for blind spots and after-hours coverage.
Access routes and flow
How people, vehicles and deliveries move through your site is mapped to find where control is needed.
Existing security measures
Measures already in place, from guards to cameras to locks, are reviewed for what is working and where gaps remain.
Surrounding risks
The area around your premises is considered so the plan accounts for risks beyond your boundary.
