Open & Lock Service
Open and Lock Services, which are also know as Lock and Unlock. ARM Secure takes on the responsibility for alarming and securing your premises at the end of the working day and ensuring that it’s safe to enter at the beginning of the next working day.
Our SIA licensed security officers execute the open and lock services, locking up at night after your employees have gone home and return in the morning to unlock the premises for the new day, whilst checking the safety and security of the building before employees arrive.







What will the Open & Lock service do for your business?
This service frees up your team, ensuring that their responsibilities are accurate to their role and not building security management. Having a designated lock-up person means that they can’t leave until everybody else has. Having a comprehensive security management plan ensures you have a safe and happy team as well as complying with the various Health and Safety Acts related to being a business owner.
Open and lock doesn’t stop a burglar from breaking into the property at night but you will have the assurance that all lock-up procedures were followed and as a result, a potential insurance claim would not be affected. We will always provide you with a clear open and locking report so that you can see what duties our guards performed and at what times at your site.
Additionally, we can integrate other actions into the service such as shutting down computers and checking any electrical equipment which not only reduces the chance of a fire but can reduce your electrical running costs.
How Does Lock and Unlock Work?
1. Schedule
All we need to know is when you want us to open up for the day and when you would like your site to be locked.
2. Open
We arrive at the agreed time making sure the site is open ready for your staff to arrive and start shift.
3. Lock
We arrive at the agreed time & lock the building/site for you, ensuring it is safe and secure.
