Supporting a busy distribution warehouse for a major UK retailer, Frocester Security is proud to have completed the design and install of protection and monitoring systems. We cannot disclose the client name or location for security reasons.
The warehouse site manages the receipt of incoming goods to the UK for storage and onward distribution. The area is more than 1 million square feet, and the external perimeter is just over one kilometre. Frocester Security was awarded the tender for the project and provided the consultation, planning and specification, system sourcing, and install of all systems, in addition to the ongoing monitoring. The system is fully comprehensive to protect the site, employees and goods, and includes:
- a perimeter alarm system with full monitoring and CCTV
- a full perimeter fence install with fencing and gates from Ware Fence
- a Gallagher access control system across more than 50 doors
- a monitored intruder alarm combined with a radio pager system, to alert the on-duty members of the maintenance team of any open doors or compromised access points
- a comprehensive Avigilon CCTV system compromising more than 80 cameras covering the internal and external spaces
- staff access management including key card access, Boon Edam speed lanes and speed gates for staff entry, and Garrett metal detectors
- full site access controls including staff segregation to permit specific users to specific places.
“This project shows the size and scale of the systems that we are able to install and monitor, and we are proud of the work that our team has undertaken for this project. While many clients opt to provide their own system specification, in line with their internal policies, in this instance, Frocester security was asked to provide a full system design and specification. We have selected top specification systems that are market-leaders in system security, designing and installing the project to absolutely maximise site security, staff safety and stock safety. Feedback from the client has been outstanding.”
