Key Holding Company

Providing fast, secure key holding for quick response and property access.

Key Holding Services You Can Trust

When an alarm goes off or urgent access is needed, you need a trusted security partner who can act immediately. Veritech Security provides reliable 24/7 key holding services, ensuring your property is protected at all times without risking your own safety or inconvenience.

Our trained, SIA-licensed officers securely hold your keys and respond to alarms, emergencies, and access needs day or night—so you never have to be on-call again.

What Is Key Holding?

Key holding is a professional security service where a certified third party securely stores keys to your property and uses them to provide access when required. It ensures quick entry during emergencies, inspections or security incidents, without compromising safety or control. With Veritech, your keys are stored securely, tracked, and only handled by authorised, vetted professionals.

Smarter Key Tracking for Enhanced Security and Efficiency

We understand the importance of operational efficiency and security, peace of mind, and enhanced productivity across industries that need to manage, monitor, and keep track of our customer's keys or assets.

Veritech understands the importance of tracking which keys are being used and by whom. We use lock-tracking solutions that integrate seamlessly with our key management systems. This allows us to monitor key activity in real-time, generate detailed audit trails, and identify who has access to specific keys. This added layer of control strengthens security and helps prevent unauthorised access to sensitive areas.
