Welcome to another post on our blog here at Meridional. Have you ever worried that something might happen at your holiday home \u2013 whether it\u2019s in another town or abroad \u2013 whilst you\u2019re away? There\u2019s a solution to these problems: key holding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are companies \u2013 usually security firms \u2013 that provide this service to both other businesses and private individuals. As the name suggests, this service involves the company keeping a spare set of keys to your property in case of any problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t need to worry about handing your keys over to these sort of companies; they are usually trustworthy and have a good reputation. Even so, it\u2019s very important that you read the contract you\u2019re going to sign so that you know what they can and cannot do with the keys to your property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, one of the services you can combine with this key-holding service \u2013 and which is often very useful \u2013 is the \u201cAcuda\u201d service. Thanks to this service, a security guard can be dispatched to your property should the alarm go off or in the event of any other unforeseen incident. This is extremely useful when you are not near the property in question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In what situations might a key safe and alarm be useful to me?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This service can be very useful if your second home or holiday home is located some distance away \u2013 whether in another province, region or country \u2013 or if it is usually unoccupied for a prolonged period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
