Unlocking Peace of Mind: The advantages of our keyholder services

With the arrival of darker evenings and shorter days, security and peace of mind become even bigger considerations for both  companies and homeowners. The pressures of being in different places and being responsible for multiple properties at the same time can be a major worry. One simple, yet cost effective solution, that has gained popularity in recent years, is keyholder services which we offer to our client base across Huddersfield and Kirklees. Keyholding is, in effect, a control room service – which means that, when an intruder alarm is activated at your business, our control room is alerted immediately. Manned 24/7 by our security personnel, they’re on standby to respond at a moment’s notice. On your behalf, our job is to hold the keys to your premises in a secure location within our operations centre so that we can gain access to your property when an emergency occurs. In this blog, we’ll explore the advantages of keyholder services and why they are becoming an indispensable asset in today’s security landscape.

24/7 Emergency Response:

One of the primary advantages of keyholder services is their round-the-clock availability. Emergencies don’t wait for convenient hours, and having a designated keyholder ensures that you have a reliable point of contact in case of lockouts, security breaches, or any unforeseen incidents. This 24/7 response capability can be a game-changer, providing swift and efficient solutions when time is of the essence.

Quick and Efficient Resolution:

Keyholder services often offer a faster response time compared to traditional locksmith services. With a designated keyholder, there’s no need to wait for a locksmith to become available, potentially saving you valuable time in critical situations. This efficiency can be crucial in scenarios such as a lost key or a security breach, where immediate action is necessary.

Reduced Property Risks:

Having a keyholder assigned to your property minimises the risks associated with leaving keys unattended or using less secure hiding spots. Instead of relying on spare keys hidden somewhere within your premises, keyholder services provide a more secure and controlled way of accessing your property. This can significantly reduce the likelihood of unauthorised access or burglary.

Peace of Mind:

Perhaps the most significant advantage of keyholder services is the peace of mind they offer. Knowing that you have a reliable and responsible individual who can respond to emergencies or access your property when needed can alleviate stress and anxiety associated with security concerns.  At a time when security is a major  priority, and also a cost consideration for businesses, keyholder services stand out as a cost effective solution for both businesses and homeowners.  Rather than place the responsibility on yourself or your employees, it makes business sense to delegate the task to a professional security company that’s on permanent standby.
