Why use an NSI approved Keyholding company?

NSI approved keyholding companies operate to British Standards for keyholding (BS 7984) and always employ security screened, and SIA licensed security officers who are fully trained.

Keyholding companies offer a variety of services. 

For example, in the event of an alarm activation, a professional team can be dispatched to your home, conduct a thorough external and internal check of your property and then investigate the cause, liaising to reset the alarm system and leave your home secure. The keyholding company can respond to a serious incident, such as burglary, fire or flood, by remaining on-site and managing the situation on your behalf. An NSI approved keyholding company will explain in detail their services before you sign your contract.
