Security Audit Services

Protect your workplace, staff, and assets with a full-scope security audit from Armstrong. Our licensed locksmiths and electronic security specialists examine both physical security and intrusion-detection systems so you can close gaps before they turn into costly incidents.

Why Book a Security Audit

  • Identify Vulnerabilities:
    Pinpoint weaknesses in locks, doors, access control, alarms, and CCTV.
  • Meet Compliance Standards:
    Ensure your site meets insurance, health & safety, and industry regulations.
  • Plan Upgrades:
    Receive a prioritised roadmap for hardware improvements and technology upgrades.

What We Assess

Physical Security

  • Entry doors, windows, loading bays, and perimeter fencing
  • Condition of locks, hinges, and high-traffic access points
  • Key management and access-control permissions

Intrusion Detection

  • Alarm panels, sensors, and motion detectors
  • CCTV camera placement, coverage, and monitoring response times
  • Integration of alarms with monitoring centres and after-hours alerts
After the on-site review you’ll receive a detailed report with practical, cost-effective recommendations tailored to your business operations and risk profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

A security audit is a comprehensive check of your entire property’s defence systems. We assess both physical security (locks, doors, windows, fences) and electronic systems (alarms, CCTV, access control).

Our goal is to identify weak points that could be exploited by intruders, such as blind spots in camera coverage, outdated lock hardware, or gaps in your key management procedures.

We recommend conducting a professional security audit at least once a year to ensure all equipment is functioning correctly.

It is also vital to book an audit whenever you undergo significant changes, such as renovating the building, experiencing high staff turnover, or if there has been a recent break-in attempt in your neighbourhood.

Yes, it often does. Many insurance providers require businesses to meet specific security standards to validate a policy or lower premiums.

By identifying non-compliant hardware or upgrading to approved alarm monitoring and lock standards, you can ensure you remain fully covered and potentially reduce your insurance costs.

The duration depends on the size and complexity of your site. For a standard small business or retail store, it may take around 60 to 90 minutes.

For larger commercial sites, warehouses, or multi-story office buildings, the assessment will take longer. We work efficiently to minimise disruption to your daily operations while ensuring no detail is overlooked.

Yes. Security isn't just about keeping strangers out; it is also about managing who has access inside.

We review your "key control" and access permissions to ensure that staff only have access to the areas they need. This helps prevent internal theft and ensures that lost keys do not compromise the security of the whole building.

Needed to reset office door keypad. Toby took it upon himself to send me instructions to complete rather than send a technician. Great response time and service.
