Waking Watch (also known as fire watch) is a direct and reassuring response to the emergence of fire safety issues in these types of buildings highlighted by the tragic events at Grenfell Tower in 2017.
Our highly qualified and skilled Waking Watch team strive to ensure buildings are safe and secure, tailored according to the needs of the client.
The Triton Security team provide waking watch services for both residential and commercial properties throughout the United Kingdom. The purpose of the service is to be alert to any safety issues, and our personnel include fire wardens, fire marshals and fire watchmen.
In the event of a fire, our team will alert the emergency services, then ensure everyone in the building is fully aware of the emergency and able to evacuate safely.
Although it is high-rise tower blocks that most typically require our services, we can also work with other types of building.
Our skilled team of security guards follow an Active Awake Alert policy and are highly experienced in public-facing settings, showing consistent professionalism and trustworthiness. They are committed to making sure residents and workers feel safe in the knowledge that the integrity of their property is being maintained 24/7.
If you have a building that you feel would benefit from our Waking Watch service, then don’t hesitate to contact the Triton Security team today to discuss your needs.
We have never seen an Evacuation Plan provided by a Waking Watch supplier to be so thorough and comprehensive as we have seen today on site.
Please email this to the LFB so that we can use this as a Test Case for all other Waking Watch Providers.
