Scaffold Intruder Alarms
Our Scaffold Intruder Alarms utilise patented microwave technology to create an invisible energy shield around scaffolding structures. This system detects intruders climbing either the inside or outside of scaffolding while ignoring false triggers from weather, animals, or vehicles. The system automatically resets after activation and integrates with CCTV networks for visual verification.
Outdoor Intruder Prevention
Our outdoor intruder prevention systems provide comprehensive perimeter protection using triple technology detection. The system combines microwave, passive infrared, and active infrared sensors to ensure 100% detection accuracy while eliminating false alarms. Systems can be deployed across large sites with continuous coverage during scaffold installation and dismantling phases.
Security Systems
We design and install advanced electronic security systems tailored to specific site requirements. Our solutions include wire-free detection systems, CCTV integration, and alarm networks that communicate with monitoring centres. Systems comply with NSI NCP115 and SSAIB SS2006 standards while meeting individual client specifications for enhanced protection.
CCTV Integration
Our CCTV integration service provides live visual verification of alarm activations. Systems transmit real-time images to monitoring centres, smartphones, and local authorities. The wire-free design allows seamless integration with existing security infrastructure while maintaining continuous site diagnostics and evidence retention for police and insurance purposes.
24/7 Monitoring
Our NSI Gold-approved Alarm Receiving Centre provides round-the-clock monitoring of all security systems. The service includes automatic alert verification, incident tracking, and coordination with emergency services. Continuous online diagnostics ensure system integrity while providing immediate response to security breaches across multiple locations.
