Intruder Alarms Systems

An intruder alarm is installed with two clear objectives, firstly, to deter crime and secondly, to provide a notification that a premises has been illegally entered. Occasionally there is a third aspect, to provide a panic button to create an alert when a person(s) are directly threatened.

However, not all systems are equal. A professionally installed Pyrotec system is designed and installed to the latest British, European and Police standards and provides peace of mind that your property is properly protected in your absence.

To determine your requirements, an experienced Pyrotec surveyor will visit your premises and advice on the best solutions and equipment available.

Risk Assessment and Alarm Grading

Lockdown Systems

We have a range of solutions available that can help schools, theatres, and other commercial and public venues comply. They range from basic wireless alarms to advanced systems with zoned alerts and automated responses, providing layered safety for schools, corporate settings, and public venues.

CCTV Systems

 

The primary use off CCTV systems is to provide site surveillance with a view to identifying unwanted intruders or incidents, however, CCTV systems can be considered for many applications and have varying advantages, some of which are listed below:

Leisure and Recreation Sites – The main benefit reported by many leisure and sport complexes, holiday sites, clubs and pubs is the high level of customer perception that the location has above average security.

Holiday/Caravan Parks – As we are sure you are aware, security is increasingly becoming an important factor to those who are considering holiday home ownership. Attracting one or two additional owner-occupiers as a result of installing CCTV will often pay for the system.

Access Control Systems

 

An access control system quite simply allows you to control who has access to your premises. Access control systems can operate doors, gates and barriers and are available in various installations such as telephone and video entry systems or computer-controlled systems operated by magnetic cards or proximity readers.

Systems can be installed in a variety of premises including offices, factories and industrial sites, schools and colleges, hospitals, hotels and care homes. An access control system can also be connected to Building Management Systems (BMS) or CCTV system or intruder alarm to provide an integrated security solution.

Lockdown solutions are emergency systems for buildings (schools, workplaces) that alert occupants to secure themselves during threats, using distinct sounds/lights, panic buttons, and integrations with doors/phones to lock down instantly, distinct from fire alarms, and are becoming crucial due to security legislation like Martyn’s Law. They range from basic wireless alarms to advance AI-integrated systems with zoned alerts, automated responses, and mobile app control, providing layered safety for schools, corporate settings, and public venues.

Key Components of Lockdown Systems:

  • Activation: Wireless panic buttons, mobile apps, desktops, VoIP phones, or existing fire alarm integration.
  • Alerts: Unique audible sirens/voice messages (different from fire alarms), flashing strobe lights, digital signage, and mobile notifications.
  • Door Control: Integration with access control to automatically lock doors.
  • Communication: Two-way communication, zoned alerts (specific areas), and integration with PA systems.
  • Technology: Wireless systems for easy install, AI for threat detection, and mobile/web interfaces for remote management.
  •  

Benefits & Purpose:

  • Immediate Response: Provides instant, coordinated instructions (lockdown, not evaluation) during active threats.
  • Enhanced Safety: Protects children, staff, and visitors from violent crime or security incidents.
  • Legal Compliance: Helps meet upcoming security legislation, like Martyn’s Law, requiring enhanced measures.
  • Confusion Prevention: Distinct alerts prevent mixing up lockdown with fire drills.
