Intruder Detection System & Keyholding The intruder alarm system forms the backbone of any domestic, commercial, and industrial security strategy. With correct design, installation, and maintenance to NSI quality standards and PD6662 an intruder alarm can be a very effective and cost efficient tool for protecting property and building contents. Intruder alarm systems can be monitored by our 24hour call centre to give added piece of mind. The advantage of this is knowing that somebody is reviewing the status of your intruder alarm 24 hours a day 365 days a year and will notify named keyholders or the local police authority should an incident take place.

With the latest technology at our finger tips, cost reductions can be made by implementing remote diagnostics and servicing, allowing reduced engineer time on site and therefore cost savings to the end user. Further savings can be made by informing your insurers that your premises has a Intruder Alarm system, installed by an NSI approved company, which can substantially reduce your premium.

Depending on your business, the monitored intruder alarm can be easily interfaced to other key pieces of business machinery to minimise losses caused by non – criminal activity such as fridges, freezers, and lighting. This reduces stock losses due to fridge or freezer failure, and also increases efficiency of electricity usage. Lighting can also be triggered by the alarm system which can further enhance your CCTV systems abilities during night hours, and further deter criminals if they should successfully access your premises.

All our operatives are SIA Licensed, which is a legal requirement for any company providing keyholding services. This training allows them to assess risk when attending sites and proceed with the most effective course of action. SGD Security will survey your property, assess the cause of the activation, rectify any problems, and secure the property if possible. This reduces the legal obligation to the employer, and risk to employees, when operating a staff managed alarm response and keyholder program.

Our unique method of operating a keyholding service gives you the security in knowing your keys never leave your property. Some companies hold keys within vans, some hold keys at their offices but this carries security and logistical problems. With your keys securely held on site, our operatives need only travel directly to your premises, not via our offices, but directly. This rapid response means we will at times arrive before the Emergency Services.
