How to Secure Your Business Premises During Christmas Closures

The festive season is a time to unwind, spend time with loved ones and enjoy the celebrations. However, for business owners, the holiday period also brings unique challenges in ensuring the security of premises while operations are on hold. Criminal activity often spikes during holidays, making it crucial to implement robust security measures to protect your property and assets.

At RG Security, we specialise in keeping your business safe, even when you’re not there. With services like mobile patrols, alarm response and manned guards, we’re here to give you peace of mind this Christmas. Here’s how you can secure your premises during the holiday closures:

1. Conduct a Premises Check Before Closing

• Inspect all access points, including doors, windows and gates, to ensure they’re locked and secure.

• Test your alarm systems and CCTV to confirm they’re fully functional.

• Remove any valuable items from sight, and store them securely.

2. Enhance Visibility with Mobile Patrols

Mobile patrols are a cost-effective solution to deter potential intruders. Our SIA-approved security professionals can provide regular, unpredictable patrols around your premises, ensuring a visible presence that discourages criminal activity.

3. Invest in Alarm Response Services

No one wants their Christmas interrupted by a late-night alarm. RG Security’s rapid alarm response service takes that burden off your shoulders. If an alarm is triggered, our trained officers will respond immediately, assess the situation and take the necessary steps to secure your premises.

4. Consider Manned Guards for Added Security

For businesses that require a more hands-on approach, manned guards offer a higher level of security. Our uniformed, professional guards are fully trained to monitor access points, respond to incidents and maintain a secure environment, giving you comprehensive protection throughout the festive period.

5. Keep Your Security Systems Updated

• Ensure your security cameras are covering all vulnerable areas and recording correctly.

• Update alarm codes and restrict access to trusted personnel.

• Inform your security provider of your holiday closure schedule.

6. Work with a Trusted Security Partner

Having a professional security team you can rely on is crucial for effective protection.
