What is construction keyholding?

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

In Upney, our construction keyholding sits within a complete construction security offering, so cover can scale up or down as your needs change. 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.
