Waking Watch: Your Safety, Our Watch
At Evolve Guarding Solutions, we provide professional Waking Watch Services to protect properties at high risk of fire or other emergencies. Our trained officers offer a 24/7 monitoring presence, ensuring safety, compliance, and rapid response in residential, commercial, and mixed use developments. Waking watch services are particularly essential for buildings that require temporary protection while fire safety systems are offline, under repair, or non compliant with current regulations.
What Is a Waking Watch?
A Fire Watch involves trained security personnel patrolling and monitoring a building at regular intervals to detect fire hazards, unusual activity, or potential safety risks. Officers provide continuous observation, respond immediately to alarms or incidents, and ensure that residents, staff, and visitors are safe until permanent fire safety systems are restored or brought up to standard.
Fire Watch services are commonly used in:
- Residential apartment blocks and high rise buildings
- Hotels and hospitality venues
- Commercial and mixed use developments
- Properties undergoing fire safety system maintenance or refurbishment
