Venture Security’s reliable and secure key holding service costs from less that 70p a day. Your keys will be held either in a secure device at your home or at our office, depending on your preferences and budget. We are then listed as the primary key holder by your alarm receiving centre (ARC)*. This way you can rest assured that a trained and licensed mobile response officer will attend in the shortest time to investigate and re-secure your property, providing you with a comprehensive report of our findings.

*Please note that you must have either a monitored intruder alarm or auto-dialler system to receive this service.

RESIDENTIAL Client testimonials

Hey. Don’t just take our word for it.

Superb company and team. Have provided the service for many years and has always been superb. Would recommend all the time.

Mr S, Basingstoke, Hampshire

Thank you for attending our recent alarm activation. It was very reassuring to know that you were taking care of a potential break in at our home and sorting out any alarm issues. You are always very calm and straightforward and it is good to know that you'll stay until everything is secured and sorted out, particularly when we are away as we were on this occasion. We very much appreciate your professionalism and are very glad to have signed up to the Venture Security Keyholding service. We would happily recommend your service to friends.
