Key Holding Services Shropshire



What Does Key Holding Mean?



Keyholding is a specialist safety and security service where an acquired safety and security firm holds a collection of keys to your commercial facilities-- in a safe, off-site location-- to be utilized in case of a safety and security violation.


Keyholding places the duty of responding to a safety and security issue, such as a burglary, in the hands of skilled, trustworthy security personnel. This, as you can envision, has a vast array of benefits to any type of business.



How Does Key Holding Work?



Some businesses, generally smaller-sized companies, will nominate a selected member of personnel to respond to emergency situations. They are usually a supervisor/ manager or hold a higher position within the company.


They will have access to a set of keys or certain accessibility codes and will be alerted when an alarm system is set off despite the time of day or night.


In certain cases, small shops, offices, and small units in risk-free surroundings, this system will work fine for business owners. However, for a larger business, particularly businesses in busy urban locations or industrial zones requires something much more substantial. That's where our keyholding services are the ideal solution.



Four Good Reasons To Use
Our Keyholding Services



It Is Safer



A member of your own staff can respond to false alarms with ease, but what happens when the alarm is genuine? A security professional, after calling in the police, may still be forced to take action in order to protect your premises and themselves.


Naturally, entrusting this responsibility to a security professional is much more beneficial to you and your business.



Guaranteed Response


Keyholding is known as a ‘control room service’. That means, when an intruder alarm is activated at your business, our control room is alerted immediately. Our control room is manned 24/7 by on-alert security personnel, ready to respond at a moment’s notice.


Consider how much more efficient this is than leaving the responsibility to a 9-5 employee, who will be at home and will have a vastly more laboured response time.



No Confusion


A professional keyholder knows what to do at all times. They’re trained for it. Because of this, they will be able to provide an effective response no matter the circumstances.


This cannot be guaranteed by leaving your keyholding responsibilities in-house — particularly if you have multiple keyholders who do not communicate with each other.

​


Your Business Is Productive


If a staff member is forced to respond in the early hours, it means they have their sleep disturbed as they have to wake up, prepare, travel to the site and, in the case of false alarms, travel back home after giving the all-clear. The next day, that staff member will, predictably, be far less productive (and probably in a sour mood).


If the emergency is a real threat, then they are putting themselves at risk of injury and trauma. Both of these scenarios are best avoided, and that’s precisely what professional keyholding does.
