As the Christmas period approaches, many businesses either shut down or operate with reduced staffing. Unfortunately, that makes December one of the highest-risk months for theft, vandalism, and break-ins.
At Frontline Security 24/7 Ltd, we know that proactive planning can make all the difference. Here’s how you can keep your business safe this festive season:
🔒 1. Review Your Site Security Early
Don’t wait until the last week before Christmas to arrange cover — by then, many security providers are already booked.
Secure your manned guarding, key holding, or mobile patrols in advance to ensure a smooth handover before staff leave.
🚓 2. Use Mobile Patrols for Unoccupied Properties
If your business or site will be closed for a few days (or weeks), our mobile patrol units provide a cost-effective deterrent.
Regular, unpredictable visits stop opportunists in their tracks and ensure quick response to any alarm activations.
🐕🦺 3. Consider K9 Units for High-Risk or Large Sites
For industrial estates, construction projects, or warehouses, K9 security adds an unmatched level of detection and deterrence — especially in remote areas.
🔑 4. Ensure Key Holding & Alarm Response is in Place
No business owner wants to be called out at 3 AM on Christmas Eve.
Let our trained professionals handle alarm activations safely and in line with BS7984 standards.
💡 5. Test Your Systems & Lighting
Check CCTV, alarms, and external lighting before closing for the holidays — most issues occur simply because systems weren’t tested beforehand.
