How does Manned Guarding work?

Our Manned Guarding service provides a visible security presence, deterring potential criminals whilst ensuring your property is protected. Our highly trained, fully accredited security officers go above and beyond to safeguard your business premises.

They can provide a range of services including…

Maintaining security: Our security officers are responsible for maintaining the security and safety of the premises they’re assigned to. This includes protecting against theft, vandalism and other unauthorised activities.

Access control: Security officers often control access to restricted areas by monitoring entrances and verifying the identity of individuals entering the premises. They may issue visitor badges, operate security gates, or use other access control measures.

Patrolling and monitoring: Security officers may conduct regular patrols of the premises to ensure everything is in order and to deter any potential security risks. They may inspect doors, windows and other entry points for signs of tampering or unauthorised access.

Emergency responseIn the event of an emergency, such as a fire, medical incident, or security breach, security officers are responsible for taking appropriate actions. This may involve evacuating the premises, providing first aid, contacting emergency services, or following established emergency protocols.

Incident reporting: Security officers should document any incidents, security breaches, or unusual activities that occur during their shift. They may be required to write detailed reports, maintain logs, or communicate information to supervisors and relevant personnel.

Customer service: Depending on the nature of the organisation, security officers may also be responsible for providing assistance and support to visitors, employees, or customers. This could include providing directions, answering questions, or offering basic assistance during non-security-related situations.

Risk assessments: Security officers may be involved in conducting risk assessments and identifying potential vulnerabilities in security systems or procedures. They may recommend improvements and work with relevant stakeholders to implement effective security measures.

What our clients say...

Just to let you know that we had an alarm activation on Friday. I am very impressed with the professional level of service. Please pass on my appreciation to the staff concerned.
Quick proactive response to our request and importantly, allows a business relationship without a conflict of interest to our customers.
Thanks for everything you and the team have done for us this year. Changing security providers was the right thing for us to do and it’s nice to find a company that looks after our interests as conscientiously as you do.
We felt that the sign up process for both sites, was extremely easy to set up. The site surveyors were punctual, professional and knew exactly where and how to find the relevant information.
Since switching to KeyPlus, we have been impressed with the level of professionalism shown by all members of staff along with service consistency. Communication is excellent and I know the school is safe and secure now.
It gives me great pleasure to commend KeyPlus for the way that you all contribute to providing us with excellent out of hours security services. We would have no hesitation in recommending your company to others.
Price wise, you offered the most economical option and your location was a major factor as we always prefer to support local businesses. I found that the process was completely hassle free from start to finish.
The service provided to us is highly professional, communication is excellent and the staff are friendly and reliable. We look forward to an ongoing working relationship with all at KeyPlus.
I would like to thank you & your team for the excellent service you provided. The service went far beyond what I expected after dealings with other security companies. I would like you to pass on my thanks to your team and all the patrol staff that have been involved during this difficult period.
We have found KeyPlus to be consistently professional, approachable and friendly which has provided a very dependable and reliable building security response service.
KeyPlus respond to every call out request, very rarely needing assistance or advice from an on call manager. Managers are able to relax and enjoy our evenings and weekends instead of responding to every single fire alarm and intruder activation.
KeyPlus were recommended to us by another local company. The change-over from the previous security firm was extremely easy and hassle-free thanks to the professionalism and dedication shown by KeyPlus.
I’ve never had a moment’s trouble with your guards or your company, quite the opposite. Your professionalism in discharging your duties was both evident and very welcome: something which cannot be said of a lot of the other companies I have had to deal with in the past.
Excellent from starting the account and planning what we required for site security.
I am writing to commend the responders to the Alarm call at 21.33 on 3rd October 2016. We reviewed their attendance on the CCTV link to our HQ. It was very thorough indeed. They checked all possible entry and hiding points and spent 15 minutes assuring themselves there was no break-in. They suspected the alarm may have been triggered by
Thank you Brian, lovely to see that the system is working so well. Your prompt response is appreciated and your efficient delivery of documentation equally so.
We find KeyPlus an important partner that helps us to run our business more effectively. In the past 9 months we have had a couple of incidents that have required us to change the way we operate. KeyPlus responded positively to our needs and displayed a high level of support and flexibility.
We recently extended the Key Holding service to include 4 additional sites due to not having sufficient personnel to deal with out of hours callouts. KeyPlus are a valuable asset for any business and are a pleasure to work with.
