The Value of Key Holder Security 

Imagine this scenario:

You are home after a long day of work. It’s dark outside, and perhaps it’s raining. You’re just relaxing when you receive an alert that your security alarm system has been tripped at your work premises. Now it’s your responsibility to go and investigate. It’s likely nothing, but it could be an intruder. 

This may not have been difficult to imagine, you may have experienced this very situation. Your employee or colleague may be the person responsible for investigating. 

In the majority of situations, an alarm trip requires a simple fix. However, there are occasions when you could find yourself or your employees at risk. Key holder security takes away this risk. 

How does keyholder security work?

We securely hold a set of keys or access details to your business. If your alarm triggers, anytime 24/7, one of our professionally trained and fully equipped security officers will attend the premises. 

Our monitoring system will provide details to the officer about the cause of the alarm trigger. This allows us to prioritise and assess the fault point. The officer will conduct a thorough external and internal perimeter check and complete a report. This is sent to our main office using our SMART monitoring system. 

We will only get in touch with you if there is an emergency, so you can rest easy, safe in the knowledge that your business is secure.   

What happens if there is a break-in?

If it becomes clear that a break-in is in progress or has happened, we will call the police and inform the client. Our key holder security officers don’t carry handcuffs and do not physically engage with intruders. 

Our security personnel will be present at the premises to provide information to the police. We will work closely with them to ensure the intruders are apprehended as quickly as possible. 

Through your alarm system, we can assess the cause of your alarm trip. This ensures the police are only called out for a genuine emergency which collectively helps to reduce the strain on our Wiltshire Police Service.
