How Our Keyholding Service Works

Every call-out follows a structured process designed to protect your premises and provide a professional response.

Secure Key Management

Your keys are securely stored and managed under strict procedures, ensuring they are only accessed by authorised personnel when required.

Immediate Deployment

When an alarm is activated or emergency access is required, our 24/7 Control Room dispatches the nearest available response officer.

Site Attendance

Our officer attends the premises, investigates the situation, grants access to authorised personnel where appropriate and works alongside the emergency services if required.

Reporting & Site Security

Before leaving, the premises are fully secured, and any alarms are reset where appropriate. A detailed incident report is then provided, outlining the actions taken, observations made, and any security concerns identified.

Professional Keyholding removes the responsibility from your employees, ensuring trained security officers attend alarm activations, emergencies and authorised access requests safely and professionally.
