As a business, you take every possible precaution to keep your premises secure. Towards the end of the day, you think about getting home and winding down. You believe everything back at the office will be safe and secure upon your return the following day.
Unfortunately; every business no matter what size may be is at risk out of hours. It could be an intruder, fire or something less serious.

In most cases these activations are false and caused by other factors such as weather conditions, faulty equipment or the incorrect securing of windows and doors. However, it is vital to have a procedure in place for the safety of your employees and to prevent potential damage to your business. Â
Businesses with good security systems in place are less likely to have break-ins.
Businesses are generally closed for longer periods than normal over the Bank Holiday weekends and criminals are very aware of this. Unfortunately for some businesses that do not have any form of Alarm Response in place it can be Tuesday before staff and management are made aware of the crime. Building sites are a particular concern on Bank Holidays for trespassers and their attempts.
