Keyholding

Locking, Unlocking & Keyholding

Your Premises Opened, Closed & Secured — Without the Hassle.

At Davinhulme Security Dogs, we provide professional locking, unlocking and keyholding services for commercial and residential premises.

Whether you need your business opened ready for employees in the morning, securely locked at the end of the working day, or require trusted out-of-hours access, our trained Security Officers can take care of it on your behalf.

Professional Locking & Unlocking

Our officers follow agreed site-specific instructions to ensure your premises are opened and secured exactly as required.

During a lock-up, our officer can carry out a complete security check of the premises, including:

  • Checking Doors, Windows & Access Points

  • Securing Gates & External Areas

  • Checking the Building is Vacant

  • Turning Off Lights & Equipment Where Required

  • Closing Blinds & Securing Windows

  • Setting Intruder Alarm Systems

  • Checking for Damage or Security Concerns

  • Reporting Anything Unusual Before Leaving

For unlocks, our officers can attend ahead of your employees, disarm alarm systems, unlock designated entrances and check the premises, allowing your staff to arrive at a building that is ready for the working day.

Secure & Accountable Keyholding

The security of your keys is taken seriously.

Keys held by Davinhulme are stored securely using uniquely numbered security seals, with key information recorded to maintain accountability and traceability.

As your nominated keyholder, our officers can also attend alarm activations, assist with resetting alarm systems and take appropriate action to ensure your premises remain protected.

Where necessary, we can also assist with arranging emergency building repairs or securing damaged access points before leaving the property.

Out-of-Hours Access

Need an engineer, contractor or delivery to access your premises when nobody else is available?

Our Security Officers can provide authorised out-of-hours access on your behalf.

We can:

  • Meet Approved Contractors & Visitors

  • Provide Access to Designated Areas

  • Remain on Site While Contractors Work

  • Supervise Lone Contractors Where Required

  • Secure Restricted Areas Following Access

  • Return After Contractors Leave

  • Complete a Final Security Check

  • Lock the Premises & Reset Alarm Systems

This means you or your employees don't have to travel to the premises simply to provide access or lock up afterwards.
