security systems for business

If you're looking for a reliable way to protect your business, then our business security systems at IDS are a brilliant option. With over 20 years of experience, we offer maintenance and installation services for a range of reliable business security options. Each business security measure has its own individual benefits, and the one you choose will depend on your business needs. 

Overall, multiple business security systems for one site will provide you with the most comprehensive and robust security.

 

CCTV Cameras

A CCTV camera is an excellent choice for a business security system as they are robust and reliable. With Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV), you will be able to monitor various parts of your premises at all times of day, allowing you to catch and identify unsuspecting trespassers.

At IDS, our CCTV cameras can be integrated with other systems such as your site's lights, doors, or gates to provide a comprehensive business security package.

 

Intruder Alarms

If you class your business as high-risk in terms of property contents or location, then an intruder alarm would be a suitable choice of business security system. An intruder alarm does what it says on the tin; it is an alarm that alerts you when trespassers and unauthorised personnel enter your property without your knowledge.

With our extensive knowledge of business security systems, we're lucky to offer intruder alarms that are able to monitor other events such as personal attacks, fires, and medical emergencies. Our intruder alarms also have the latest digital signalling equipment to ensure that all of the relevant emergency services are informed in any case of the above incidents.

 

Access Control Systems

An access control system can be defined as any system that limits access to various parts of your business's property. It can also be known as a door entry system. Access control allows business owners to decide who can enter their premises, and even when employees can enter the monitored area. This can be done through a range of entry options, such as key pads, fobs, access cards or an intercom. 

You may want to use an access control system for your business security solution due to its versatility. You can use access control systems in many commercial environments including shops, offices and banks.

To further strengthen your commercial security, you can even connect an access control system to alarms and doors!

 

Security Barriers

If you work at a business location that has lots of employees, then security barriers are a great way to physically limit the movement of people and vehicles within the site. There are different forms of security barriers, including arm barriers, turnstiles and rising bollards.

You may find security barriers useful as a business security system if you have your own on-site company parking. You can easily separate general public parking from employee parking using an automatic arm barrier, for instance. This will not only ensure that your employees have somewhere to park, but it will keep their vehicles secure whilst they're working, too!

do i need permission to install cctv cameras on private property

If security is a priority for you, you may be considering installing a CCTV camera to protect your home or business. But do you need to ask permission before installing a camera?

The short answer is no, you do not need permission to install a CCTV camera on your own property in the UK. However, there are guidelines from the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) that you will need to follow as a CCTV camera user.

covid pandemic workplace changes

The coronavirus pandemic has been challenging for businesses across all sectors, but we knew it was vital to keep providing reliable security services for businesses and homeowners throughout this troubling time.

During the first lockdown, we provided an emergency callout service while we got our safety procedures in place. Thankfully, we were able to return to a fully-operational service within the first month! We've been able to remain open throughout the pandemic, but in order to do this, we've had to make some significant changes to the way we work. 

Pre-booked appointments

One of our main goals throughout the pandemic has been to minimise disruption for our clients and keep our services running "as normally" as possible. We've found it really beneficial to speak to our clients over the phone or via email to pre-book their appointments. 

Arranging appointments ahead of time provides peace-of-mind for our clients, ensures they're prepared for our visit, and allows us to make sure everything is safe for our engineers before they arrive on-site.

Social distancing & hygiene

Social distancing has become a part of everyday life now, and we're sticking to the guidelines too. All of our technicians are keeping a safe distance while they work & avoiding face-to-face contact where possible.

On top of this, we've introduced some new protocols to make sure people entering the IDS offices are adhering to the guidelines too. We've got designated car parking spaces & we've provided handwashing stations near our doors so people can sanitise their hands before entering and exiting the building.

Our engineers are issued with...

We knew, from the very beginning of the pandemic, that our engineers would need to be prepared before entering your homes to keep you (our clients) and them (our staff) safe. Before attending an appointment, our engineers are issued with:

An information pack containing:

  • IDS COVID 19 Risk Assessment
  • Working Safely from a vehicle
  • Working Safely in other people’s homes
  • IDS Hazardous Substances Safety Information Sheet – Alcohol Hand Sanitizer
  • Coronavirus COVID 19 follow the rules info sheet
  • NHS Wales Cough and Sneeze info sheet
  • How to put on a mask
  • IDS Question card

A hygiene pack containing:

  • Face Shield
  • Half face P3 Mask & Filters
  • KN 95 Masks
  • Surgical Masks
  • Nitrile Gloves x 100
  • Disinfectant wipes x 200
  • Keep your distance – 2m sticker
  • Hand Sanitiser – liquid 250ml
  • Hand Sanitiser – Gel 500ml
  • Liquid Soap
  • COVID 19 Procedure Reminder Card

Hopefully, this gives you an overview of the different protocols we have in place to continue working safely throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We understand that security systems are (in some cases) more important than ever before. With a lot of offices and businesses closing their doors for the time being, there are a lot of vulnerable, empty properties that need an additional layer of security.
