🔒 Lock-Up Rules for a First Impression Specialist

1. Visitor and Staff Check

• Ensure all visitors have left

• Confirm all staff members have exited or know you’re locking up.

• Notify security or management if anyone is lingering without reason.

2. Front Desk Security

• Secure sensitive documents (e.g., visitor logs, schedules, deliveries).

• Log off or shut down your computer and lock screen if required.

• Lock drawers or cabinets containing confidential information.

• Turn off or unplug electronics ( Tv’s, space heaters, etc.) if applicable.

3. Physical Checks

• Do a walkthrough of the lobby, bathrooms, break rooms, and nearby meeting spaces.

• Check for:

  • Leftover personal belongings

  • Suspicious packages or items

4. Doors & Windows

• Lock main entrance doors and ensure they’re fully secured.

• Check windows, and close shades.

6. Lighting

• Turn off non-essential lights

7. Communication

• Inform your manager or on-site security that the building has been locked up.

8. Final Exit

• Exit through the designated door (usually the front or a staff exit).

• Lock the door behind you and test the handle to ensure it's secure.

• Do not linger outside alone — leave promptly or wait in a secure area if being picked up.
