What is vacant property keyholding?

Vacant property keyholding in Kensington — we hold the keys to your empty building and attend alarms and access so you don't have to.

Vacant property security protects buildings that are empty between tenants, sales, development or probate. It combines physical measures (guarding, patrols, board-up) with electronic ones (CCTV, alarms) and regular documented inspections. Every vacant property keyholding assignment in Kensington is planned around your site, your risks and your budget — never a one-size-fits-all package.

Why Kensington businesses need vacant property keyholding

Kensington has its own security picture — the mix of premises, footfall and risk across West London isn't the same as anywhere else. We deploy officers who understand the area and tailor vacant property keyholding to what your Kensington site actually needs, rather than a generic template.
