What is construction keyholding?

Construction keyholding in Colindale — we hold your site keys and attend alarms and access, so your team never attends alone.

Construction security protects building sites and their plant, materials and workforce. It combines manned guarding and gatehouse access control with electronic measures — CCTV towers, alarms and patrols — scaled to the phase and value of the site. Every construction keyholding assignment in Colindale is planned around your site, your risks and your budget — never a one-size-fits-all package.

Written proposal & quote

BS 7858 vetting & screening
