Business
We have been at the forefront of designing, installing and maintaining fire and security systems for business clients since our formation over 30 years ago.
- We hold the highest National Security Inspectorate (NSI) Gold accreditation – assuring you of a high standard of service from initial consultation and design through installation to ongoing preventative maintenance.
- Our consultants are trained to carry out professional risk assessments – considering the nature of your particular risk and personal concerns, location of the premises and high risk stock, vulnerability of you and your staff, building layout, type of construction, and any minimum system requirements stipulated by your insurers.
- Our engineers are health and safety trained to work on fuel forecourts and building sites; they hold ‘forecourt passports’ and ‘CSR cards’.
- We are members of the Belfast Chamber of Trade Retail Crimewatch Initiative – keeping us up-to-date with current local retail crime trends and the security needs of local retailers.
- We are a local, independent company - we are not tied to particular equipment manufacturers yet we have excellent purchasing power to bring you the ideal solution for your security needs.
Building site
For medium to large sites and compounds we can provide a mix of static and pan, tilt and zoom (PTZ) cameras that can operate in conjunction with conventional lighting on site at night or via discreet, energy-efficient, infra-red LED lighting.
Movement detection may be used to provide a ‘ring’ of protection around the areas to be covered and, once armed, any motion detected causes the system to communicate with a remote monitoring centre via broadband.
The centre operators have access to live and recorded footage and can remotely control full-function PTZ cameras to identify the cause of the activation. Using an interlinked public address system on site, the operators may issue verbal warnings to trespassers and, if necessary, call out your keyholder or a security guard response unit.
Sites with no power or landline
For smaller sites, individual buildings and vacant properties where power and broadband may not be available, we can provide wire-free lithium cell-powered cameras with integral movement detection and infra-red LED lighting which transmit a 10-second video stream of the area of detection to a remote monitoring centre via the GPRS mobile network (subject to suitable signal strength on site).
Our monitoring centre operators can notify your staff or nominated manned guarding company to respond to activations on site, or we can arrange for a manned guarding service on your behalf.
Such systems are normally provided on a monthly rental basis. Outright sale packages are available if long term use is required.
Remote site management tools
Our site protection systems may be used as management tools by reducing time-consuming journeys to site to view building progress.
