Does secWatch work outdoors?

The secWatch system is made of cameras and other equipment that are waterproof. The system is ideal for an outdoor setting where crime can be stopped before the intruders enter the site.

What is visual verification?

Using the secWatch technology we can see when an alarm goes off whether there are intruders on site. As the alarm activates an image is presented to our operator and they can verify whether there is somebody on site or if it is an animal.

Do you provide Alarm Monitoring?

From our Security Operations Centre we offer a 24hr back to base alarm monitoring service. We believe that by including CCTV cameras into the system and onsite speakers to warn intruders in real time is a much more powerful solution.

Would a Virtual Guard replace our Security Guard?

On site security guards are expensive. By combining the secCloud access control, intruder detection and building automation system with the secWatch Virtual Guard Service we can monitor your sites and manage all of the security functions from our Security Operations Centre. The return on investment is normally realised in 12 - 24 months and then the ongoing fees are a fraction of the cost of maintaining an on site guard.

What is a Virtual Guard?

From our Security Operations Centre we run a 24hr service where we use the on site CCTV cameras combined with the alarm system to monitor for intrusion. When an alarm is received we analyse the live stream to see what is happening. If the alarm is caused by an animal or is false then we can deal with it straight away. The client does not get woken up in the middle of the night for false alarms. Where the intrusion is genuine then we can use on site speakers to tell the intruders that the site is being monitored and they need to leave. We can also alert the authorities when people do not leave the site. This is much more effective than a patrol attending the site 45 minutes after the event.

security designed for

Self Storage

Seamless access control and security is important for the success of a self storage facility. Allowing customers to easily get into the facility so they can get to their individual storage unit. The access control system should give the customers a sense of security to know their possessions are in good hands.

secCloud is a managed access control, intruder detection and building automation system that can fully automate your self storage facility. By entering a PIN code at the front gate the customer can gain entry, turn on the lights they need on the path to their unit, disarm the alarm in the unit and gain access to the lift. When the customer exits the facility by entering the PIN number the lights can be turned off and the storage unit alarmed.

You can save money on staff costs by running a fully automated storage facility. Using the secCloud portal you can give a customer access to the unit they have rented which will give them access to the facility instantly. If the customer is in arrears you can login and temporarily stop the access with the click of a button. When the account is up to date, access can be re-issued easily.

Your Self Storage Access Control security system is made by combining the following:

Access control keypads: Vandal and weather resistant metal keypads are used that can withstand the harsh weather conditions.
Access controller: Integrates with the gate motor to open the gate when a valid access control PIN code is entered in the keypad. Magnetic gate locks can be used to ensure the gate is secure.
Intercoms: When a customer is having issues entering the facility they can use the intercom to communicate with the onsite office when there is someone on site or off site at another location.
Individual unit door alarms: Each unit can be individually alarmed using a reed switch to give the customers piece of mind. The alarm can be disarmed when the customer enters their PIN number at the front gate and rearmed when they exit.
Lift control: The button for the floor the customers unit is on can become operational when the customer enters a valid PIN number at the front gate or in the lift car.
Lighting control: Save money on electricity by integrating the lights with secCloud. When the customer enters their PIN number at the front gate the lights on their path of travel to the storage unit can become illuminated.
Online customer portal: secCloud is a cloud based access control system that can be operated from anywhere on the internet. Using the customer portal you can add new customers, open gates, disarm the alarm and control the lights.
Smart phone application: If you are on the road and do not have access to the secCloud customer portal you can use the smartphone app to open gates, turn on lights and disarm the alarm.
Security Cameras: Industrial grade high definition CCTV cameras are installed to monitor activity on site and give customers a sense of security that they are entering a secure facility. The cameras can be viewed onsite or streamed to another location.
24 hour security monitoring: From our security operations centre we can monitor the alarms generated on site, view the security cameras, make onsite live audio announcements and open the gate for authorised and verified people. The intercom can be answered in the security operations centre out of hours to give you that extra support. 24 hour security monitoring: From our security operations centre we can monitor the alarms generated on site, view the security cameras, make onsite live audio announcements and open the gate for authorised and verified people.
