A prompt and effective response to alarm activation is the last and vital link in ensuring the security of your onsite business assets.
Our service is operated to highly professional standards, with our specially vetted and trained security operatives responding to key holder alerts rather than a member of your staff.
There are many advantages to using an X714 security operative rather than a staff member.
Our operatives are trained to deal with all the risks inherent in responding to alarm activation, including the potential threat involved in confronting any intruders on the site.
Deploying our Key holding service also avoids:
- The risk to your staff when responding to alarm activation out of hours
- The risk that staff nominated to respond may be unable to do so especially in the middle of the night.
- The disruption to sleep patterns of the staff member involved, with a consequent loss of attendance at work or reduced efficiency.
The police require that where a monitored alarm system is in place, the company must provide the names and contact details of at least two people who live wit 20 minutes of the alarmed property to act as key holders.
X714 security can discharge that obligation on your behalf.
If an alarm signal is received at our Alarm Receiving Centre our operators will take the necessary action, despatching our trained operatives to check that the alarm system, and if necessary calling the emergency services, or simply resetting the alarm.
