Why use professional daily unlocking and locking-up services?

Limit the number of people who hold keys and premises alarm codes. And don't leave the responsibility of securing your business to an employee who is simply the first to arrive or the last to leave. Put that responsibility in the hands of a professional, SIA-licensed security officer.

Why use professional daily unlocking and locking-up services?
1. Improved staff safety
Employees no longer need to arrive early or stay late to open or secure premises, potentially alone in dark or isolated surroundings. A security officer takes responsibility for these arrangements.
2. Greater protection against crime
Regular security attendance provides a visible deterrent to burglars, vandals, trespassers and opportunistic criminals. Officers can check for signs of attempted entry and suspicious activity.
3. Consistent security procedures
Buildings are opened and secured according to agreed procedures, ensuring doors, gates, windows, access points and other security measures are checked every day.
4. Protection of vehicles and car parks
Car parks benefit from a visible security presence at the beginning and end of the day. Officers can identify suspicious activity, unauthorised access, damage and potential safety concerns.
5. Better protection for schools and educational facilities
Controlled opening and closing arrangements help ensure school gates, entrances and buildings are secured appropriately, supporting safeguarding procedures and reducing opportunities for unauthorised access.
6. Business park-wide security
Multiple buildings, shared access roads, gates and communal areas can be incorporated into a single daily security routine, helping maintain a consistent standard across an entire business park.
7. Early identification of problems
Officers can identify damage, water leaks, fire hazards, unsecured entrances, lighting failures and other problems before they develop into more serious incidents.
8. Accountability and peace of mind
Agreed opening and closing times, recorded attendance, security checklists and incident reporting provide organisations with reassurance that their premises have been attended to and secured.
9. Professional representation
An SIA-licensed security officer provides a professional and reassuring presence, representing the organisation positively to employees, visitors, customers and contractors.
10. Reduced management workload
Managers and business owners no longer need to organise staff rotas around opening and closing responsibilities, rely on employees holding keys or worry about last-minute absence affecting security arrangements.
