Buildings & Facilities
An essential element of homeland security in every country is protection of the critical infrastructure. That's the industries and institutions, buildings and distribution networks that are essential to everyday life. Their roles range from a nation’s defence and public utilities, to the functioning of government and the welfare of its citizens. Any disruption to continuity of operation can be paralysing or catastrophic.
A screening checkpoint at the front entrance of a building has been standard practice for many facilities. Securing other critical access points has been a challenge. Until now. At Smiths Detection, we have used our experience to develop the most comprehensive security solution available today.
From the enhancement of existing access control checkpoints, through mail screening, to the 24/7 monitoring of HVAC systems, we have engineered a portfolio of products and systems to secure access points against accidents and potential threats.
Our customised solutions protect buildings, reduce the level of vulnerability and safeguard the national or local infrastructure.
