GUARDING SERVICES

Alarm Response Services

Overview

An alarm activation can happen at any time, and attending the premises yourself may be inconvenient or place you and your employees at unnecessary risk. Our alarm response service provides a professional point of contact when an alarm is triggered. A trained security officer attends the site, carries out an initial external and internal inspection where authorised, and follows the agreed escalation procedure. If there are signs of a break-in, damage or another incident, our team can contact the emergency services, approved contractors and nominated contacts before helping to secure the premises. Combined with our keyholding service, alarm response gives your organisation reliable support 24 hours a day while reducing the need for employees to respond alone.
