Key Holding & Alarm Response

Floorbrite’s security services act as guardians for commercial properties, providing security and essential services based on access, by safeguarding a copy of your property keys. We are on duty 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to your alarm, let you back in if you lock yourself out or just keep an eye on your business when you’re not around, providing peace of mind regarding the ongoing security of your property.

In addition, our unique contractor desk provides vetted, reliable tradesmen to take care of any property emergency or maintenance that may be required, combining our key holding services with authorised access to your property, 24/7.

Key Holding

You can be confident in our professional key holding services. A receipt will be made out for the customer when the keys are handed over to us, and the keys will then be deposited within our secure key holding facility. Keys will be kept sealed, with each seal being uniquely numbered and recorded in our log book. So whether you require our Key Holding & Alarm Response service for your offices, stores, factory or other premises, we ensure that you will receive a professional, affordable service.

Key Advantages

• We deal with the nuisance of false alarms so you don’t have to.
• We deal with alarm activations or emergency response when you may not be able to.
• We deal with alarm activations more quickly than you may be able to, eliminating the threat of an untrained person putting themselves at risk from confronting an intruder who may still be on the premises.

Alarm Response

Our Alarm Response Service saves you having to get up in the middle of the night to deal with an emergency response situation that could be just a false alarm, or even worse, an intruder on your property! The police are extremely busy, and due to operational demands, very often are not able to deal with alarm response, leaving your business at risk. Our highly trained security officers will attend the premises on your behalf, and deal with any problems that may have occurred from the alarm activation. A comprehensive report will be given to you the following morning, outlining the incident that has occurred and what action was taken by our alarm response services.

Our Central Monitoring Station is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and thus we will always be ready to respond to an alarm notification. Our vehicles are all fitted with satellite tracking and this enables us to dispatch the closest available emergency response unit, enabling our security officers to arrive at your premises as soon as possible. Our Security staff will carry identity cards and wear a full uniform with the company insignia on, thus making them easily identifiable, and will be in constant contact with our Response Centre. In the event of a serious incident, where we feel the customer needs to be contacted urgently, we will call a nominated member of staff.

CCTV Designing, Installing and Maintaining your CCTV system

CCTV Benefits

CCTV statistics point to a reduction of over 95% in the amount of crime being committed where cameras are installed, proving why CCTV is seen by many as the best system for deterrent and detection.

Shoplifting can have a damaging effect on profits and statistics prove that a small CCTV camera system can be the most cost effective form of prevention for retailers of all sizes. Because a camera does not allow the shoplifter to know whether they are being watched, or recorded, at any particular moment, they are uneasy about stealing while under the camera’s view. Criminals, therefore, will normally go to another shop where it is easier to steal goods. For the majority of those tempted to shoplift it will provide a very high level of deterrence.

Reliable CCTV – even through network failures by allowing local storage in the encoder to act as backup if the network goes down, using patent-pending technology.

Audio capability – listen in. Options are available with one- or two-way audio which can be relayed as a single media stream so the two are synchronized.

Pre-alarm recording – capture the lead-up to major events. Our encoders can temporarily record video of key security locations; then, if and when an alarm is activated, they will rewind and permanently record the information just before and just after the alarm. The relevant video is safely stored on the secure server, but valuable space isn’t wasted with hours of uneventful recording.

Video management systems – bridging PC and analog viewing. Our Video Management System provides a single means to control both.

Features

Accessibility: A single operator can monitor remote and wireless cameras from anywhere on the network, and the video can be stored remotely as well. And while many competitors offer point-to-point wireless capability, we allow wireless access anywhere on the network.

Simplified installation at lower costs: Rather than requiring extensive coax cabling like analog systems, IP Network Video systems connect through CAT-5 or wireless communication systems that already exist in many buildings.

Reduced storage costs: The system is using dedicated high-density storage servers rather than relying on a single hard drive. The video on those servers can then be shared with anyone anywhere on the network.

Reliability: IP uses the benefits of Internet technology to create a more reliable security system. It can automatically redirect video traffic to a backup storage system in the event of a power failure or network outage.

Scalability: IP networks offer improved flexibility for enlarging a CCTV system. It is not only easy to add cameras, but also to add storage space and distribute it across the network. Plus, IP networks are uniquely able to support multiple viewers. In the same way that an e-mail server can send the same data to multiple people at the same time, the network switch has the ability to clone the video and use the same data multiple times.

Video quality: IP gives you the ability to customize the quality of the video output based on your viewing needs and storage capacity.

Applications

Wireless: Advances in wireless technologies have been fuelled by the demand for increased mobility and ease of installation. Imagine walking around with a single wireless tablet and viewing any camera on your network. Or instantly installing cameras along tunnels and bridges without any cabling except power. The technology is moving quickly. The future is not distant.

Alarm Monitoring/Remote Video Monitoring & Response Centre

Our control room is manned 24 hours per day 365 days per year, and we provide a range of services such as:

• Care Line
• Intruder alarm monitoring
• Remote video camera monitoring
• Tracking ability
• Lone worker monitoring

The control room is staffed with fully SIA licensed CCTV operators, screened and vetted in accordance with BS 7858 standards. Intelligent control software records all calls and action taken.

The monitoring station provides centralised master control from any system linked to it, integrating information from all system components. Our technical staff who support it are just a phone call away after hours should they be needed. As technology advances and new products are introduced we can adapt our monitoring to suit the individual needs of the customers.

Our experienced team of operators will monitor signals and prioritise as each signal is received and then escalated as per procedure.

Secure Site Monitoring - To reduce costs many companies have reduced or even cancelled their manned guarding services; taking a systems approach to maintaining security, helping to mitigate risks.

Secure Off-Site Monitoring - We are able to monitor many sites with CCTV cameras from a remote monitoring station, saving money not having to pay staff to remain on site after hours.

False Alarm monitoring - All Alarms False or confirmed are verified and escalated as per escalation procedure.

Reports - Each event is logged and reported to the Installer and the customer; our administration will phone or email you with the report.

Integrity checks - Integrity checks are undertaken randomly during day and night to make sure the system is working. The operator does this through dialing in to your system.

System and Escalation process - We will install a CCTV camera system on your site which can be leased, rented or purchased. This system consists of the cameras, a recorder, amplifier, monitor, receiver, red walls and a loud speaker.

• The system can be activated by either a phone call to our control room (Password required) or activated and deactivated at specific times.
• Our control room will monitor all signals from the site and where the system is activated, a full camera patrol will be done by our CCTV licensed staff member. Should an intruder be detected on camera they will be told to leave the site via the speaker, should they not leave the site the police will be called to an active intruder. We are also able to dial into the system and provide “camera patrols “of the site. This can be done randomly or at fixed times.

We can supply and install bespoke systems for many environments, including schools, retail outlets, hospitals, construction sites and car dealerships, many of whom require a cost effective security solution without using manned guards.
