24/7 security protection for businesses

FRENKEL TOPPING

The Challenge

In 2001 Key Control Services was appointed to protect FRENKEL Topping’s office building at Merchants Quay in Salford Quays. The building is located close to the Orsdall residential estate and has been targeted by vandals and criminals on a number of occasions.

Prior to using Key Control Services, FRENKEL Topping employed a local company to provide evening security cover and alarm response services. However, the directors were dissatisfied with the quality of officers provided. Furthermore, the directors were fed up being called out during the night each time the alarms were activated. They decided to look for a more reliable and professional security firm and turned to Key Control Services for help.

The Solution

On appointment, Key Control Services undertook a detailed security audit and crime risk assessment, and recommended a package of security services which included: Key Holding, Alarm Response, Front of House Manned Guarding from 4:30pm to 7:00pm, Open Up and Lock Up services, Temporary Mobile Patrols during building repair work and DX handling legal postage services.

The Results

The directors of FRENKEL Topping were delighted with the results. Since Key Control Services took over the contract, there have been no major issues or security problems. The directors no longer have to respond to night-time alarm activations and the staff feel very well looked after.
