About Key Holding & Alarm Response

Key holding takes the pager out of your facilities team's pocket. The provider holds your keys in secure storage and dispatches a vetted officer when an alarm triggers, a leak is reported, or a contractor needs out-of-hours access. Most include a fixed monthly retainer plus a per-call-out fee, with full audit trail of every visit. Pairs naturally with remote monitoring and mobile patrols.

Common use cases

  • Office or retail premises with intruder alarms
  • Multi-tenanted commercial building
  • Holiday / weekend cover for HQ
  • Schools or community venues
  • Out-of-hours contractor access

What to look for in a provider

  • Keys held in BS 7872-grade secure cabinet
  • Officers SIA-licensed and BS 7858 vetted
  • Documented call-out response time with SLA
  • Lock-up / unlock service in addition to alarm response
  • Insurance: public liability + crime / fidelity cover
