Our Out of Hours Keyholding Service in Solihull

Solihull is home to Uniguard's head office on Warwick Road. The borough includes the town centre, Birmingham Business Park, Blythe Valley Park, the NEC and Birmingham Airport, as well as major manufacturing sites. Locally we support employers who no longer want staff attending alarms on their own at night, at business park offices, retail in the town centre, manufacturing sites and premises near the NEC and airport.
Out of hours keyholding in Solihull protects your staff as much as your building. Instead of asking an employee to drive to a dark, empty site after an alarm, our trained officer attends. They check the premises, deal with the problem, meet emergency services if needed and secure the site. It removes a real duty-of-care risk and gives you peace of mind evenings, nights and weekends.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How does out of hours keyholding work in Solihull?

We hold your keys and your out-of-hours instructions. When an alarm or emergency occurs outside working hours, an officer attends your Solihull premises and sends you a report of what happened.

Which areas of Solihull do you cover?

We cover Solihull borough, including Shirley, Olton, Knowle, Dorridge, Balsall Common and Chelmsley Wood. Send us your postcode and we will confirm cover.

Why not just use a member of staff as keyholder?

Sending staff to an alarm at night puts them at risk and can breach your duty of care. Our officers are trained and licensed for it, and many insurers prefer a professional keyholder.

Are your officers SIA-licensed?

Yes. Every officer we deploy holds a valid SIA licence and is vetted to BS 7858.

Do you cover nights, weekends and bank holidays?

Yes. Our control centre runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Can I cover more than one site?

Yes. Sites in Solihull and elsewhere in the UK can sit under one agreement with a single point of contact.
