Brivo ACS WebService improves security and operations at Aurora Whole Foods warehouse
posted on 31/05/2011

The Aurora Whole Foods warehouse handles produce, meat, cheeses, seafood, bulk items, and more through its 23 bay doors for shipping and receiving. Along with the bakery, the two facilities supply 28 Whole Foods stores in their four-state region. The Whole Foods warehouse located in Aurora, CO, near Denver, has installed Brivo Systems' Brivo ACS WebService to improve security and operations at the 110,000 square foot facility and adjoining bakery. Security Install Solutions is the integrator for this installation. Previously, the warehouse relied on lock and key and keypads to manage access control for the 170 employees of the combined operations. “The old systems weren’t very effective,” commented Mario Ruiz, Associate Facility Team Leader, “we couldn’t update our records.” Ruiz and his team researched alternatives, settled on a new system, and were set to go until one of their suppliers introduced them to Rueben Orr from Security Install Solutions. Orr gave the Whole Foods team a d... [more]

posted on 24/05/2011

Site security is becoming increasingly important to building firms as theft of equipment and vandalism can seriously hinder work and lead to contracts not being completed on time or within allocated budgets. Construction Security (CCSec) has commenced work on two new projects with Taylor Wimpey. The projects will provide comprehensive site security at housing developments in Romford and Barking. As well as CCSec’s monitoring equipment, the security solutions include turnstile access control and web based biometric readers which work using the unique characteristics of a person’s finger. Every employee or contractor’s details are held online and this ensures that Taylor Wimpey know exactly who is on site and that they are authorised to be there, as well as keeping an accurate log of all employee arrivals and departures.

Domestic burglaries are up but many thefts are committed without a forced entry
posted on 17/05/2011

New research from Ageas Insurance shows that just under one in two adults (47%) don’t lock their front door as a rule when they are at home. And that’s when sneak-in crimes can happen. More than one in ten (13%) only ever lock their front door at bedtime. According to recent Home Office statistics, domestic burglaries are up 14%. Experts say that this could increase throughout the summer months as the weather starts to warm up and people venture into their gardens or leave their windows open. Ageas also recently unveiled statistics highlighting that homes across the UK display on average £1223 of valuables such as TVs, other electronic goods, antiques and works of art that are clearly displayed for would-be burglars to see through home windows. Nearly one in five people (18%) said that as much as £2,000 or more worth of valuables could be seen by a passer-by looking through a window. One in three people (35%) said that valuables worth more than £1000 could be seen. Mark Cliff, M... [more]

The City of Sanford, Florida, has deployed Genetec’s Security Center unified security platform for both access control and video surveillance in their new Public Safety Complex - a 75,000 square foot complex which houses both Fire and Police headquarters as well as the city’s emergency operations center.
