Building Security

Building Security

There must be an audit to be conducted in the buildings after a problem has occurred such as a burglary, terrorism, fire or vandalism to review all the security measures in place and to make recommendations for security improvements to prevent future occurrences. Security surveys and audits for new buildings or drawings of buildings prior to construction, to design and recommend security equipment, procedures, solutions, locks, doors, fences, glazing protection, access control, alarm systems and CCTV surveillance. These are to secure both the personnel and the assets of the company occupying the building including its information, assets, computer rooms, communications and IT facilities. A building security project always starts with a review of the threat and will then provide a full security report giving a strategy, policy and security plan and options together with budget prices for discussion and selection and approval by the person. Our suggestion is to produce a security plan and solution that will neutralise the threat at the most cost-effective price and in the most cost-effective way. We are conscious of clients' budgets and our objective is to provide the highest level of security at the lowest budget cost. About half of the work is carried out from drawings and so we very often work as part of the Design Team with the Architects and the Consulting Engineers.
