In het verleden werden hold-upalarmknoppen vaak misbruikt. Daarom kwam er een alarmsysteem op de markt waarbij twee knoppen gelijktijdig moesten worden ingedrukt. Een hold-upalarm bestaat (conform artikel 6 van het KB van 25/04/2007 genaamd vast persoonsalarm) in de vorm van een vast apparaat of een mobiele draadloze paniekknop en biedt een discrete manier om bijstand te vragen bij een overval. De vaste persoonsalarmsystemen, bedoeld voor publiek toegankelijke plaatsen, moeten uitgerust zijn met een systeem dat visuele verificatie mogelijk maakt.

Where a confirmed response is not required, i.e. Police calling, a single button Hold-up Alarm is suitable. These may be used to trigger a response that can vary from a signal to the Chubb Alarm Receiving Centre, to a local alarm / or in a manufacturing environment a machinery stop.

Added flexibility can be achieved by using mobile wireless devices e.g. worn as a pendant around your neck, as a key fob attached to your key ring or clipped onto your belt. These devices can also include a man down function, which automatically requests assistance should the wearer be brought to the ground.

Chubb's Keyholder Care alert service is designed to help employers protect employees who work alone or respond to activated alarms.
With the Keyholder Care alert, an employee’s mobile phone is allocated a unique reference number (URN) and a dedicated connection to a Chubb Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC).
When that employee is called to site by an alarm activation, a set time period is selected for the employee to report in by, or be contacted by the ARC to ensure they are safe.
If the employee fails to report in at the agreed time, an ARC operator will call the mobile device to check on the employee. If no acknowledgement of a safe return or an instruction to extend the originally set time window is received, the situation is immediately escalated with an emergency response.
Keyholder Care further enhances Chubb’s intruder security and monitoring services, assisting employers in protecting their field workforce as outlined by The Health & Safety at Work Act.
