Pandemic Lockdown & Return to Work
The threat to empty premises is higher during lockdown. And remains so as the UK begins to return to work. City Security Services are here to help.

Government body, the Security Industry Authority, gave security guards key worker status at the beginning of the crisis. Security companies are essential in helping to maintain critical services across the UK.
Since the beginning of pandemic, City Security Services have worked hard to comply with Government guidelines. Operational measures are in place to ensure staff and the public remain safe.
Security companies adapted working practices to comply with Government advice from the beginning of lockdown. These are reviewed and updated as the UK begins to return to work. You’re in safe hands!
Three reasons why YOU should speak to the experts at City Security Services

City Security is organised to be fast
- Average time to site, response times, is 19 minutes and 42 seconds, so under 20 minutes
- A key safe means it can be up to 50% faster!
- Fleet of vehicles under 3 years old. There no breakdowns to slow City down.
- More officers on shift than competitors.
- Designed to be fast. If an officer thinks he’ll struggle to get there in time… The message goes up the chain to manager or higher. Every effort is made to ensure the 20 mins response is kept.
Keyholding is an obligation don't leave it to a volunteer
When you purchase an intruder or fire alarm, or CCTV system you will be asked:
“Can you provide two keyholders, within 20 minutes of site. Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, please?”
No business can. That’s why you need City Security Services. Dependable 24/7/365 alarm response cover.
Worst case scenario
A doctor responded to an alarm activation at 1am. He met the Police at the surgery. It was a false alarm…
Before you go, sir. I think we need to breathalyse you
He’d been out for a meal and drank some wine. Thought nothing of it when the Alarm went off – rushed to the surgery. He lost his driving license…
