We have been using Apollo Security for a number of years in different functions from key holding, alarm response, building unlock and lock-up and most recently man guarding. All guards provide an exceptional service while on site and regularly go above and beyond including additional hours, additional duties or undertaking more frequent patrols and visits at short notice.

We use Apollo for keyholding. A pleasure to deal with during onboarding. We've had two call outs and both have been handled professionally with the site attended until the alarm company could carry out their repair.

We have been using Apollo for various security duties for a while now and we are extremely happy with the services they provide us. They are reliable, trustworthy and thorough within their duties. They will keep us updated with any new information or issues they may come across and take appropriate action if and where required. They are a pleasure to deal with and we would certainly recommend them.

We are very happy with the service Apollo have provided, security is an important service at our sites and we were somewhat nervous in taking the leap away from our previous contractor.
Apollo could not have been more helpful throughout the process and bent over backwards to help where our previous contractor was not forthcoming with information.
Adam has been our main contact and has been extremely helpful and efficient.
