Key Holding 

Key Holding Company  

Key Holding is all about being there when you or your staff cannot, or don’t want, to be.

The latter particularly being the case when your alarm monitoring company has been alerted to suspicious activity such as a fire-alarm or security alarm being triggered or vandalism taking place. Also, do you really want to go out in the depths of winter (or send a staff member) to check on your building? It’s much safer (and easier) to use Wye Security!

Incident Response for all Emergencies

This is why our Key Holding Service for residential and commercial premises, together with our response service is so very useful, whilst also providing peace of mind.  We will respond to any issues in your absence or automatically, as directed, through daily routine and random visits, regular inspections, lock up services and alarm activations.

Building Security

Our key holding service can deal with any issues at your property from locking up after staff to avoid your employees being responsible for carrying keys and opening up, switching heating on, turning off air conditioning, or anything else you require our officers to action on your site.

Your keys are totally safe with us – we do not hold keys in our vehicles and all of our customers’ keys are stored, unmarked and comply with regulatory standards and are fully insured.

Rental / Holiday Rental – Lost Key Service

There are many other types of keys too, all of them having the potential of getting lost.

This can be a real problem if the property in question is a holiday home or rental property, especially if the owner lives a long way away from the property in question.

You can imagine the problem, you have rented your property out and the tenant / rentee, loses the key at 1am and you are 100 miles away safely in bed. Just what can you do?

Well, if you have trusted your key with us, you will have nothing to worry about. Subject to the necessary verification, we will be able to get a key to the property and all will be well.

So, if you have some rental property and want a back up service to sort any lost key scenarios, we can help.

Our Other Business Security Solutions

Our commercial security solutions extend far beyond key holding, these including, mobile patrols (especially useful if your commercial premises has a big perimeter), static guard services, lone worker protection and event security. Together these ‘loss prevention’ services offer a comprehensive security solution for every company, firm or householder.

Professional Security Services

We also offer signage boards for your premises to advertise that they are monitored by professionals; this alone can be a deterrent to would-be criminals.
