Prestigious London Hotel

Sector: Hospitality

Sites: The Shangri-La, London

System: Fire and Security

Maintenance: All Systems Under Maintenance Contracts

Background

This prestigious hotel is located in central London and is owned by a renowned international hotel brand. The hotel's management wanted to make sure that the strongest security and fire systems were in place to protect both employees and visitors in such a prominent area that was also open to the public.

Challenges

The biggest challenge faced by A-Plus Security was to implement the new system upgrades while maintaining the hotel's employees' and visitors' continuous safety and comfort during construction.

There were numerous systems in hotel that needed to be maintained and upgraded, which made matters more difficult. These included access control, CCTV, intruder alarms, fire systems, public address and voice alarm systems, gas and kitchen suppression systems, emergency lighting and fire doors.

Solutions

Hotel management was certain that A Plus Security could install a dependable and affordable fire and security system without causing any problems or endangering employees or visitors because of their experience with a number of other well-known business buildings and apartment complexes.

Following the hotel's installation and update, A-Plus currently conducts routine maintenance visits to find and fix any system problems. In addition to improving system uptimes and security coverage, this lowers the frequency of defects and the ensuing callouts and expenses.
