Ensuring 24/7 protection and rapid response

Keyholding services are a crucial part of modern security solutions, especially for businesses that require constant vigilance over their premises. Our service involves holding a set of keys for your business / residential property. In the event of an alarm activation, our trained officers respond promptly, assess the situation, and take necessary actions such as contacting emergency services or securing your property.

The Keyholding Process

The process is straightforward yet vital. When you sign up to our keyholding service, Capricorn Security securely stores a set of your property’s keys. These are kept in a highly secure location and are only used when an alarm is triggered. Upon alarm activation, our response officers are dispatched to the site, where they can enter the property, investigate the issue, and manage any necessary actions, such as liaising with emergency services or contractors.

Types of businesses that use Keyholding

Keyholding services are widely used across various sectors, including:
Retail: Shops and retail chains utilise keyholding services to protect their premises after hours.
Commercial: Offices, warehouses, and factories often employ these services to ensure swift response in case of a security breach.
Industrial: Facilities with valuable equipment and stock benefit from the peace of mind that keyholding provides.
Residential: Property management companies and landlords use keyholding services for void properties or high-value residences.
