The importance of a bespoke security system


What is the importance of a bespoke security system design?

Any business or property that deal with high-value products are, unfortunately, more at risk of being targeted for theft.

If your property, shop, or business displays or stores high value products you may risk being targeted by a more sophisticated kind of criminal than a typical shop, warehouse, or commercial business. A professional raid may even use insider knowledge about the weaknesses of the site and organisation and such raids on an organisation are usually meticulously planned. As such, it is wise to carefully design your security system so they could withstand any planned and potentially complex assault which would put assets at risk, We always recommend specialist systems that are more technically advanced and able to withstand over-ride, tampering, blocking and obstruction and each system would need to be a bespoke design tailored precisely to operate and protect the valuable assets to where it has been implemented.

We always recommend a system fit for purpose, but we always advise that deploying a technically superior system to identify and prevent people from scoping the site before an intrusion and protect against insider theft and staff corruption. A system that allows for greater integration capability and scalability will always give a client the desired flexibility and greater analytical alarm management and these features, in our opinion, are imperative when protecting high value assets.

Another consideration away from the technical aspects of a bespoke design is that a client may want the security system to act as a visual deterrent, or it may need to sit discreetly in its environment. There are pro’s and con’s to both but this is part and parcel of professionally designing a bespoke security system, you recognise the value of assets, the environment they are within and most importantly listening to the client and understanding the risks the present to you, they know there business better than anyone.

Whether the concerns are tracking and recovering irreplaceable assets, protecting client data or protecting your business’s reputation, there are systems that will assist in there protection and we have the experience and knowledge in offering the perfect solution for each environment.

Whichever system you choose, you need to guarantee the personal safety of staff both leading up to and during an incident. If risk to staff members is a real threat, we make it an absolute priority to implement the necessary protection measures to keep you and your staff safe.

We ensure that advanced systems are designed and include much deeper layers of security than others, to preserve your peace of mind.

How do we approach our bespoke designs?

First you will meet with one of our Senior Management team who has a proven track record in your field and experience of dealing with situations like yours. Consultations of this kind are only held at Senior Management level so that we can fully understand your requirements and concerns.

This consultation can take place at any preferred venue to suit your requirements.

We will undertake a thorough risk analysis of your situation and then one of our designers will prepare a technical specification based on your requirements. We will then present a range of options for you to consider.

Throughout the process, only our Senior Management team dealing with your design will have access to your information. You can rest assured that information following your risk analysis will remain confidential.

On request, we can put you in touch with other clients in your field to discuss their experience of working with us.

What our
clients have to
say about us

A Plus provides an excellent return on investment, not just through the solution installed, but the general experience they offer from pre-install to post-install and right through to the maintenance of the system. We knew we had made the right decision with A Plus as they offered a comprehensive and detailed proposal and project plan. The skill level of their engineers was a pleasant surprise with their knowledge of IT and networks, as well as electronic security, which made dealing with our internal IT team very smooth. Apart from that, the fact we never had to chase them for anything was a very nice surprise!

International Group of Schools

We chose A-Plus Security to carry out the upgrade of our electronic security systems for our 9 colleges and they have far exceeded our expectations in their approach to the projects. We are a UK wide organisation where the planning and mobilising of these major project around term times is time critical and A Plus Security have been nothing short of fantastic in the communication, there design proposals, openness to last minute changes, pre and post-sales support and their management of 3rd party companies and IT services. We would highly recommend A Plus Security to any organisation who are looking to install or upgrade their systems.

Nationwide Groups of Colleges

A Plus Security exceeded all expectations, following a late award of the contract due to a different contractor pulling out. All fire and security works were completed when requested and signed off on finish, with no issues noted. We have continued working with A Plus on following projects and would fully recommend them.
