Frequently Asked Questions

In this section, you can find some of our most frequently asked questions and answers about our alarm response and key holding services:

Still Have A Question?

Key holding and alarm response services are security services designed to protect your premises without putting you or your staff at risk.

Our professional security team will keep a spare set of your keys in a secure, off-site location. When an alarm is triggered, our trained security officers will be sent to your site to investigate. They will assess the cause, check for signs of intrusion or damage, and take appropriate action, including contacting emergency services if needed. This way, you can rest assured that your premises are safeguarded 24/7/365, with a fast and professional response.

Using a professional service provides you with both safety and peace of mind. Responding to an alarm call-out yourself can be risky, especially if an intruder is still on-site, and should be avoided if possible. Our SIA-licensed security officers are trained to handle these situations safely and effectively. They know how to assess threats, reset alarm systems, and take appropriate action to protect your premises.

Our service also saves time and stress. Instead of disturbing you or your staff during unsociable hours, our response team can handle everything and send you a detailed report afterwards.

Our highly trained security officers follow strict key control procedures to ensure your keys are kept safe. Your keys are stored in secure, off-site locations with restricted access to authorised personnel only. Our key holding sites are robustly protected, with a security presence, CCTV security and a range of physical security measures in place.

Our key holding and alarm response services are ideal for a wide range of properties, including:

  • Offices and corporate headquarters
  • Warehouses and distribution centres
  • Retail stores
  • Schools and universities
  • Industrial sites and factories
  • Healthcare facilities
  • Event venues
