Security system “sniffed out”
the protection of these assets, and accompanying potentially hazardous training materials, ICTS insurers demanded a Security Grade 2 intruder detection system should be installed prior to the construction of the Centre. The Centre required an intruder system which would initially enable security for up to
T
30 zones, together with the inherent flexibility for future expansion. Also important was the requirement to be able to operate independent sub systems, separating the main site from the kennels, thus enabling exclusive management of each area. The Honeywell G2 security system was identified as the most appropriate product to
meet the needs of the installation. The G2 security system supports instant alarm signalling which allows a ”listen-in” capability, to enable an alarm to be quickly verified, and immediate on-site action to be taken. The Canine Services Centre also required a user-friendly system that would be suitable for all staff to operate.
The Galaxy MK7 LCD Keyprox keypad allows the system to be set and unset using a proximity card, enabling easy programming and system control, thus helping to minimise user error false alarms.

Our waiters don’t need to struggle with the door anymore and no longer need to use their backs to push through, which could often cause accidents.”
