The Best Security Solutions - Deter, Detect, Document

Your business should have layers of security solutions and methods to ensure safety. It starts with understanding your risks and ends with a solid combination of operational, technical, and physical processes, which includes the design, installation and maintenance of life safety and security systems. 

Properly designed security networks can save time and money. While we recommend building in measures to deter intrusion, we also advise customers to take proactive steps to detect intrusion and train employees to recognize and document suspicious activity.

Building Security into Your Existing Plan

According to the National Infrastructure Advisory Council, your building resilience should cover everything from entries to transportation routes, communications and power, and every business transaction in between.

Our life safety and security networks will strengthen your business' resourcefulness and adaptability, allowing for rapid recovery. Additionally, these security measures include post-incident learning to better respond to future incidents.

Using Building Information Modeling (BIM) to Integrate Security Systems

Building Information Modeling (BIM) can be used to safely and virtually determine the best way to integrate security systems by examining your floor plans and keeping your egress plans up to date. Understand where you can incorporate architectural elements (such as corners, building facades, signage, and so on) into a building security plan. Experts warn against using features like fake cameras or overt signage to ward off would-be violators. These are not only ineffective, they can be in violation of codes and laws. 

As you use building information modeling to integrate your security systems, consider the benefits of safety-focused initiatives, regular updates, and your building exterior. We discuss those in more detail below.

Provide Safety Without Fear 

In most environments, integrated life safety and security systems should make your staff and visitors feel just that: safe. There can be a fine line between feeling safe and feeling alarmed. For example, patients should feel safe so they can concentrate on wellness; students should feel safe so they can focus on learning.

Life safety solutions, such as security cameras, blue call boxes, secured building entries or manned reception areas are all ways to send a message of safety.

Incorporate a Reliable Fire Alarm System

Fire alarm systems have advanced sensors that detect smoke, flames, or heat. The early detection and warning of any potential fire allows for a fast and effective exit strategy, keeping the building’s occupants as safe as possible. Common features of fire alarm systems include alarms, strobe lights, voice evacuation systems, and SMS alerts. These systems integrate with onsite mass notification systems (MNS) and emergency communication systems (ECS) for wide-area evacuation, relocation, and rapid communication to local first responders.

Update Your Life Safety and Security System Regularly

It’s essential for everyone that your facility’s security and safety mechanisms are kept updated. Facility managers should make this an ongoing investment, always looking for new state-of-the-art security solution technology to stay ahead of security breaches. It’s important to work with professionals who can help you build flexibility into your security and safety plans, enough to allow modification and expansion as needed.

Perimeter Safety and Beyond

As you survey the exterior of your building, pay attention to blind spots or areas out of a security camera range. When it comes to entrances and exits, consider these easy but powerful safety measures:

  • Limit building access
  • Use strategically placed security cameras so you have the maximum coverage. Lemberg is a certified Axis camera system installer.
  • Light all dark areas such as parking lots, break areas, stairwells, hallways. Use motion activated lighting to save energy costs.
  • Keep vegetation and landscaping well-trimmed to remove potential hiding spots and hidden window access.
  • Install sound masking and cybersecurity measures to keep digital information and conversations, such as those between patient and doctor, private and secure.

Safety and Security System Training

Safety and security training is the cornerstone of a secure and protected building. Taking the time to train your employees to understand your integrated security systems, including their key functions and locations, is the best way you can provide the knowledge and skills needed to respond to emergencies, mitigate risks, and safeguard lives and valuable assets. This includes providing detailed exit plans and training on exiting a building and sweeping the building for stragglers at the end of the day.
