Professional Keyholding & Alarm Response in Coventry & Warwickshire
Reliable Protection for Your Business, Total Peace of Mind for Your Team
When your business alarm triggers in the middle of the night, the last thing you want is to put your staff at risk. Relying on employees for alarm call-outs can lead to dangerous situations and exhausted teams. At PatrolGuard, we provide a safer, smarter alternative.
As a local team that genuinely cares about the Coventry and Warwickshire community, we take the responsibility of holding your keys seriously. Because we are based right here in your area, we offer the rapid, professional response you need to keep your premises secure 24/7.
Why Choose PatrolGuard for Your Keyholding?
Choosing the right security partner is about trust. We understand that you are handing over more than just keys; you are trusting us with your livelihood. Consequently, we have built a service based on transparency and high industry standards.
- SIA-Licensed Expertise: Our responders are fully trained professionals who follow strict industry best practices.
- Secure & Audited Storage: We store your keys in coded safes or sealed pouches with full audit trails. Therefore, you always know exactly where your keys are.
- Rapid Local Response: Because our mobile patrol units are already active in the CV postcode area, we can reach your site quickly—often within minutes.
- Human Support: We aren't a faceless corporation. You can pick up the phone and talk to a real person who knows your site and your priorities.
How Our Alarm Response Service Works
We aim to make security as seamless as possible. Here is what happens when you partner with us:
- Secure Keyholding: We hold a spare set of your keys in our dedicated, secure facility.
- Immediate Dispatch: If your alarm activates, our 24/7 control room receives the alert. Consequently, we immediately dispatch a trained responder to your site.
- On-Site Resolution: Once we arrive, we perform a full exterior and interior check for signs of intrusion. If we find damage, we will liaise with emergency services on your behalf.
- Securing the Site: We reset the alarm and ensure the building is fully secure before we leave.
- Transparent Reporting: You will receive a detailed incident report the next morning. As a result, you stay fully informed without ever having to leave your bed.
Protecting Your Team and Your Bottom Line
Relying on "on-call" staff isn't just a safety risk; it’s a compliance and cost issue. Staff who are woken up at 3 AM are often less productive the next day, and you may even face extra costs for time off in lieu.

- Reduced Liability: You protect your staff from potentially violent encounters by using trained professionals.
- 24/7 Coverage: We provide protection 365 days a year, including bank holidays and weekends.
- No Long-Term Contracts: We believe in the quality of our service. For that reason, we don't tie you down with complex, restrictive contracts.
- Fixed Pricing: Enjoy professional protection from just £1 per day, with clear, straightforward call-out fees.
