When the site is empty, we’re still watching

Most break-ins at business premises happen when nobody’s there. That’s exactly when our operators are.

  • Checked on camera in secondsAn operator in our UK monitoring centre sees what the cameras see, so a fox in the yard goes nowhere.
  • Challenged out loudThey speak through the camera speaker and set off the strobe and siren while the intruder is still outside.
  • Police or a security guard sentIf it’s real, it’s escalated straight away, and you get an alert on your phone at the same time.

Who we protect

Built for every kind of site

The same system protects a corner shop or a distribution yard. What changes is how much of it you need.

Shops and showrooms

Shopfronts, stockrooms and the till, covered day and night.

Offices

Entrances, kit and after-hours access, with a record of who opened up.

Warehouses and yards

Shutters, loading bays, fences and vehicles left outside overnight.

Pubs, restaurants and salons

Back doors, cellars and late closing, without getting in the way.

Every way in

Every way in, covered

Your survey maps how someone could get onto the site and in. Each part of the system goes where it’s needed, not where it’s easiest to fit.

  • Doors and shutters on sensorsShock and contact sensors pick up a forced door or shutter before anyone is inside.
  • Yards and vehicles watchedSmart detection picks out people around vans, plant and stock.

Smart access

Let staff and contractors in from your phone, and see who opened up and when.

Your site on your phone

Watch live, arm and disarm, and get alerts from anywhere.

Maintenance included

Installation, maintenance and repairs are part of the service.
