Intruder Alarms

Why invest in an intruder alarm?

As an investment, an intruder alarm is probably the best value for money for the protection of your business. An intruder or burglar alarm is a system widely employed to inform the owner, or other responsible people that someone has entered the protected office or home without authority.

Which intruder alarm systems are available?
The most basic alarm systems comprise of a control panel and keypad for operation, detection devices to activate the alarm and an audible means of warning as a deterrent. These are generally referred to as bells-only systems. Most basic systems these days also include a method of communicating the activation to your mobile phone. More complicated intruder alarm systems utilise sophisticated technologies, and the level of sophistication chosen will strongly influence the cost factor and therefore depends upon the dangers attending an unwanted intrusion.
Other commonly utilised triggers for intruder alarm systems are PIR motion detectors and infra-red beams mounted in inconspicuous locations. The transmitters and receivers are set at random angles and can be moved often as a further barrier to would-be intruders. Dual technology motion sensors combine infra-red and microwave technologies to give a reliable form of detection.
The result of an alarm being activated can vary from a simple siren and strobe unit, flashing lights and making a very loud noise, to communication to a control centre for police response or even filling the area with smoke so dense that escape becomes impossible.
EVOTEC uses only approved intruder alarm products to protect your premises. Our professional approach ensures you have the optimum system for your purposes. With a monitored alarm you are connected 24 hours a day to the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) via your phone line or GSM communicator. Your business is monitored even if you are away, so any break-in signal will be attended by keyholders and, if the alarm is sequentially confirmed, the police would be alerted.
Supported intruder alarm brands: Orisec, Risco, Galaxy, Honeywell, Texecom, Scantronic, Menvier, Pyronix, Ajax, HKC, CSL, DualCom and others.

Making your burglar alarm visible is vital
It is important the burglar alarm is visible because burglary is generally an opportunistic crime, and the burglar will always seek the easiest target available with the least number of obstacles in the way to the entry. EVOTEC will visit your premises free of charge, carry out a thorough survey and make professional recommendations as to the type of security system that will best meet your needs. We will then install your burglar alarm to the agreed specification to ensure that your business premises are secure.

CCTV

CCTV systems have moved into the digital age with IP CCTV cameras now becoming widely used, these CCTV or IP cameras can be integrated into home or business security systems over existing IT and data networks for viewing on local networks, smartphones and internet connections worldwide.

Substantial advances in camera technology and manufacture in recent years has not only brought the cost of CCTV systems to affordable levels for both commercial and domestic users, the resulting improvement in the quality of the pictures and digital recording quality has meant that even the most budget priced system can reproduce clear and definable pictures.

24/7 Automated CCTV Maintenance Checks
Ensure your CCTV is working when you need it most. In addition to remote access via on-site broadband and ability to control it on your smart devices for live viewing and playback, the whole CCTV system can be linked with our online software that automatically monitors the health of all CCTV devices: cameras, recorders and links in between. Any faults and/or issues would be reported every hour, so there would be no surprises of missing footage should a need arise to recover important data.

EVOTEC CCTV health-check system automatically performs these essential maintenance checks:
- Reports when the connection to the CCTV system fails or the system goes offline
- Detects if a camera has developed a fault or is tampered with
- Detects hard disk failures of if it stops recording
- Reports if the system is recording for less than expected duration
- Reports when the time is incorrect or tampered with
- Detects if the camera images are too bright or dark, out of focus, or out of alignment
Our online service system autonomously logs into each CCTV system every hour and performs a number of maintenance checks, such as Camera Status, Disk and Recording Status, Time Accuracy, and more. Issues are detected and reported when they occur, and service teams can be sent Status Report emails showing which systems require remedial action.

Supported CCTV brands: Hikvision, Dahua, Samsung, Axis, Bosch, IDIS, Vista, FLIR, Wisenet and others.

VCA (Video Analytics)

The intelligent video analytics is a technology that is used to analyse videos for specific data for example behaviour, objects or attitudes. The biggest challenge here is the amount of data to be processed. If all images are transmitted in real time and in very high quality, extremely large quantities of data are produced which not only results in high costs for storage media and hard disks. Furthermore, the analysis of the images requires much time.

The video analytics helps to reduce the data volume. Due to the special filters, the camera only transfers what is requested. The video images are already analysed and evaluated before either stored in camera or transmitted to management- or storage. Thus, the network as well as the performance is relieved, personnel and storage costs are reduced, and time is saved.

Furthermore, false alarms can be reduced to an absolute minimum. A self-learning algorithm automatically adapts to environmental changes, ignoring light changes due to cloud formation, artificial light and auto-iris camera operation as well as repetitive movements such as swaying trees or rippling water.

VCA for retail industry
Due to an increasing competitive pressure in the retail market, it is more and more important for retailers to create a great shopping experience for their customers, Therefore retailers initially need to know customer requirements. So far, time consuming and expensive research was needed to determine this information. This is why the new retail software was developed to count customers at different times and places and determine how long they dwell at what place. With different reporting tools like heat maps or hot spots results are presented clearly. Based on this data customer needs can be identified quickly. Thus, you can optimise your store and gain a substantial advantage over competitors.

Access Control

How access control and door entry systems protect your business?

Such systems allow you to control who enters your premises and when. This can be done via a user operation, i.e. answering an audio or video call unit, or automatically using a wide range of reading devices locally at the entrance, or connected via a central control unit. We can specify the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of door entry systems, all in compliance with relevant standards and codes or practice. Whether you require a new system, or your existing system needs upgrading, we offer a full range of services.

A wide range of door entry systems
EVOTEC can design a door entry system to suit almost all situations and budgets. The most common devices are either audio or video call points at the entry door linked through to a reception area. A visitor will call on arrival; the responsible person will answer the call and typically open the door using a button on the answer unit.

The next level would be a system combining the call points with either a card / token reader or pin code unit. This will ensure that regular staff can move freely through the entrance without having to call, and visitors can be screened.

Moving on would be a control system that reads cards / tokens at many doors throughout the premises. Each member of staff would have a unique card, and the system could be programmed to automatically allow only authorised members of staff to enter areas that are necessary for their work and restrict them from unnecessary areas. These systems would typically sit on the existing IT network and be controlled by the receptionist, who could also issue visitor passes that only allow the access to the necessary parts of the building.
In high security applications, i.e. IT rooms and highly sensitive areas, the above systems can be combined with biometric readers to ensure that the correct person is entering the area.
