ABOUT AAP
The strongest security rarely needs to announce itself.
AAP Security is a boutique, founder-led security company based in London. We specialise in close protection for private clients and families, and in discreet security for the residences, venues and brands around them.
We work mainly across Prime Central London, including Mayfair, St James’s, Knightsbridge and Chelsea. Being local means we know the environments our clients move through and can respond quickly when plans change. Where clients travel, support can be arranged further afield.
Close Protection
Security shaped around the way you live.
For private clients, executives and families, protection has to work around real life, not the other way round. AAP’s Close Protection Operatives combine situational awareness and careful planning with the discretion and presentation expected in private and premium settings.
That can mean coordinating arrivals, venues and journeys, working alongside drivers, assistants, household teams or family offices, and adapting calmly when the day changes.
Security should adapt intelligently around the client.
EXECUTIVE & VIP PROTECTION
Discreet personal protection for executives, high-profile individuals and their guests.
FAMILY PROTECTION
Protection for families and children, planned around routines, schools and home life.
ARRIVALS, VENUES & TRAVEL
Coordination around journeys, arrivals and venues, with secure drivers and vehicles where required.
Residential & Family Security
Discreet protection for private residences, households and temporary stays, working quietly alongside family, staff and trusted providers.
Secure Transport & Travel Support
Protection around journeys, arrivals and departures, with secure drivers and vehicles where required. AAP remains your single point of contact throughout.
SERVICES
Focused on private clients. Trusted in premium environments.
BUSINESSES & PREMIUM ENVIRONMENTS
Security that understands the environment.
At a private members’ club, luxury boutique or invitation-only event, the person at the door represents the standards of the place. AAP provides Corporate Security and Private Events & Hospitality security, including discreet Door Supervision, delivered with the same judgement as our private client work. Where a requirement doesn’t fit a standard label, Security Advisory & Bespoke Support helps shape the brief first.
WHY AAP
Boutique by design.
AAP stays deliberately small. You deal directly with the founder, personnel are matched to your environment, and the standard stays the same from one assignment to the next.
Discretion | Judgement | Presentation | Service | Continuity
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Direct relationships by design.
Adrien Auffray Patricio leads every client relationship personally, from the first conversation onwards. His background across luxury, fashion, hospitality and security shaped how AAP works: understand the person and the environment first, then protect both without changing either.
“Client service isn’t an extra alongside security. It’s part of doing security properly.”
