FAQ
From experience, it is best to start with a security survey. Lodge Service can provide a detailed assessment of your security needs. An experienced member of our team will visit your premises and identify any areas of vulnerability. The security specialist will ask you about your use of the premises, in addition to questions on such issues as storage of high-value items and also access to the premises during the course of the day and night.
Lodge service can also advise on security measures within the premises according to use – such as areas where there is high footfall, in public areas accessible to visitors and members of the public.
Unfortunately, attacks on retail staff are on the increase. However, there are measures that can be taken to reduce the probability of violent assault and to mitigate risk through suitable security provisions for your premises.
The principal measure is to ensure that security is visible so that anyone with criminal intent knows that they are visible and risk being apprehended if they enter your premises or perimeter. That means that warning messages, CCTV cameras and viewing screens should be made visible to visitors to your premises. Also, there should be good management of entry and exit control points, as criminals want to be assured of a fast exit.
Lodge Service can provide security officers to monitor the entrance and exit and also provide protection by patrolling the perimeter or interior of your premises. The presence of a security officer is a major deterrent and criminals usually avoid these locations. Security officers can be provided to patrol premises at specific times of day, such as when there is maximum footfall or if there is a record of criminal activity at particular times of the day or days in the week.
The number of CCTV, Closed Circuit Television, cameras can be determined by a survey of your premises to establish areas of vulnerability and provide for the protection of entry and exit points. The Lodge Service team will be able to advise you on suitable security precautions. It is important that CCTV should be monitored, either remotely or by staff in-store to identify and confirm any criminal activity, so that police can be alerted or a security officer or team can be dispatched where there is an incident.hould be made visible to visitors to your premises. Also, there should be good management of entry and exit control points, as criminals want to be assured of a fast exit.

Alarm systems cannot be directly connected to the police. However, specially trained security controllers in alarm receiving centres, ARCs, can confirm activations and are authorised to then notify the police, for the police to then visit the alarm site.
When a monitored alarm is triggered, the intelligence centre is immediately notified. If a second detector is triggered from the same alarm system this is known as a confirmed activation, after which the controllers at the centre can notify the police. They will then respond to the burglar alarm activation. The nominated key holders for the premises will also be notified – keyholding is a service that Lodge Service can provide.
The police consider that attending false alarms can be a drain on their resources. For this reason, the police reserve the right to withdraw burglar alarm response if they receive a number of false alarm call-outs from the same premises.
The police response is on three levels of classification:
Level 1 – this is the full police response to a confirmed alarm alert. in the event of the activation of the alarm system.
Level 2 – the police will respond only if resources are available, most police areas no longer offer this level of response, instead moving from Level 1 to Level 3.
Level 3 – this is the lowest level of response, where the police will only respond if a member of the public calls the police to alert them to a crime. This is the level of response that all buildings receive, regardless of the security provisions.
Monitored alarms are downgraded to a Level 3 response if the police are called to three false alarm incidents in the space of 12 months. An alarm system will then remain at Level 3 for three months, when the system can be restored to Level 1 classification if it has been updated.
No, the intelligence Centre has a direct link to the local police force control room. Lodge Service will quote the alarm type and a unique reference number, which matches a record of your property details on the police command and control system. This is a particular benefit of a Lodge Service installed security system, which is not available for example from a security app-controlled system.
A range of key holding services, to visit your premises at any time in the event of a security incident. As one of the leading security companies in Cardiff, Lodge Service can despatch mobile security patrols for 24/7 alarm response, and also provide comprehensive manned guarding services.
