Private security in Ganshoren
A small, green municipality in north-west Brussels, Ganshoren moves to the rhythm of its natural spaces and a handful of main roads. The park of Rivieren Castle, part of King Baudouin Park and the wooded valleys give it a peaceful character, while Avenue Charles-Quint, one of the main gateways into Brussels from the west, concentrates traffic, shops and services. The municipality also has schools, care homes, sports facilities and large residential estates surrounded by greenery. Here, security is above all a local matter: protecting shops and shared buildings, managing local festivities and watching over refurbishment sites.
Sites and security challenges in Ganshoren
On Avenue Charles-Quint, shops, agencies and supermarkets serve passing trade, with open car parks and stockrooms to protect at the end of the day. The residential blocks from the 1960s and 1970s, set in open green spaces, have several entrances, garages and shared cellars: when they are refurbished, scaffolding and equipment remain accessible at night. Care homes and healthcare facilities welcome vulnerable residents and many visitors, which calls for a kind and attentive reception. Schools, halls and sports clubs also organise fêtes, tournaments and car-boot sales, all occasions where guiding the public and managing access really matter.

Our recommended set-ups in Ganshoren
For a shop on Avenue Charles-Quint, a retail security presence at busy times or at the end of the day supports staff and deters theft, building on the CCTV already in place. For a residential block undergoing works, construction site security with night patrols protects equipment and common areas. A care home, for its part, can call on a reception officer for its open days or during particularly busy periods, with special attention paid to the residents.
