Home should feel safe
Apartment blocks, gated developments and private estates all need someone who knows who belongs there. We provide concierge officers, gatehouse cover, patrols and alarm response, so residents come home to a building that's looked after.
Strangers follow residents in.
Someone tailgating through the main door. Parcels taken from the lobby. Cars tried in the car park at night. Most residential problems come down to who gets in.

ReservedFAQ
Questions residents and agents ask.
Can one officer do concierge and security?
Yes. Our front of house officers deal with visitors, parcels and resident questions while keeping watch on the building.
Do you protect private homes as well as blocks?
Yes. We cover private houses and estates with patrols, alarm response and, where it's needed, a static officer.
Can you cover nights only?
Yes. Many buildings want a daytime concierge and an overnight officer, or night cover alone. We plan the hours around you.
What if the fire alarm system is out of action?
We can provide a waking watch: officers patrol the building to spot a fire early, raise the alarm and help residents out.
Will residents see the same officers?
We aim to keep a regular team on each building, so residents know who's on duty.
