Frequently Asked Questions about our Keyholding Service

What are Emergency Services?

Some examples of emergency services for home and business customers are:

  • Burglar Alarm Activations
  • Fire Alarm Activations
  • Emergency Lock Outs
  • Floods
  • Gas leaks
  • Power Problems
  • Telephone Line Faults

In order to comply with the police requirements properties with police response must have two private keyholders who must be available at all times. By using a professional keyholding service, you will be sure that a specialist will be in charge or your activations and will be in attendance 24/7. In the event of a burglary etc the relevant authorities will be called by our Key Guard as required, in order to avoid your property being black listed by the police.

What other Services to you offer?

Our main goal is to protect your property in case of emergencies, such as burglary, fire, floods etc. We also provide a range of non-emergency services which vary greatly, depending on your personal or business needs.

These services can be completely bespoke depending on your needs and situation.
