Key holder
In the commercial and/or residential burglar alarm industry, a key holder is a designated individual who holds a key to the property being protected by the alarm system. This person is responsible for responding to any alarm activations and allowing access to the property for law enforcement or security personnel. The key holder is typically chosen by the property owner or manager and must be available to respond to alarms at any time, day or night.
