CCTV Cameras

Closed-circuit TV (CCTV) is nowadays one of the most popular and essential security systems. It is an integral part not only of the law enforcement systems but also of the daily operations of all financial and commercial establishments, leisure and transport facilities. The popularity of the technology stems from its effectiveness and ability to prevent or detect criminal and anti-social behaviour and offer invaluable help during investigations.

They are a simple and effective way to limit and monitor the access of these areas and compliment and strengthen the physical access control.

Fire Alarms

Nowadays fire alarms are mandatory for each new building and especially for the high risers and large commercial areas. The main aim of these systems is to detect a fire and alert the security personnel and occupants of the emergency situation. Often the fire alarm systems are also enabled to send remote signals and alert the fire departments of the developing fire.

A basic fire alarm system consists of fire detector which can be smoke and heat detector, pull stations and control panel which transmits the signals to the visual and voice devices in the building.

Depending on the complexity, there are different types of fire alarms. To learn more about the fire alarm types and identify the ones most suitable for your needs, please contact our fire security specialists.

Intrusion Alarms

The main application of intrusion alarms is to detect and inform about a break-in through a system of motion sensors, door and window contacts, glass break detectors and keypads. All these devices are connected to a control panel.

The intrusion alarm system can range from a simple door-locking device and buzzers to elaborate systems including a whole host of detectors linked to monitoring station and a capability to alert the police or control room.

The exact parameters of the intrusion detection systems depend on the specifics of the premises and can be designed to meet the particular client requirements.
