Alarm Response for Schools
When a school alarm is triggered in the middle of the night, it shouldn’t fall to your caretaker to respond. Not only is it disruptive to their essential early-morning duties, but it can also be unsafe to attend alone.
At PatrolGuard, we provide a professional school alarm response service across Coventry and Warwickshire. Our trained security officers will:
Respond to fire or intruder alarm activations at any time of night or weekend
Securely check the building and surrounding grounds to ensure there is no threat
Reset alarm systems if safe to do so
Contact your caretaker or designated staff only if there is a genuine concern, keeping them fully informed of the situation
This service ensures your school is protected 24/7, while your staff remain safe, supported, and focused on their day-to-day responsibilities.
Late lock or unlock
Locking and Unlocking Support for Schools
Sooner or later, every school faces the same problem — a caretaker is away, another is unwell, and suddenly there’s no one available to lock or unlock the building. The last thing you want is for this responsibility to fall to the Headteacher or teaching staff.
That’s where PatrolGuard comes in. We provide reliable school locking and unlocking services in Coventry and Warwickshire, stepping in whenever you need extra support. Our team can:
Lock the school securely after late events or evening activities
Open up early in the morning or at weekends
Provide cover during holidays, staff illness, or unexpected absences
With PatrolGuard acting as your support caretaker, you’ll always have peace of mind knowing your school premises are safe, secure, and ready for staff and students.
