Boundary Surveillance Optex
The need for boundary surveillance
Generally when a traditional security system is installed, detectors are located inside the building, notifying the monitoring station in case an intrusion has been detected within the building. But is that really necessary? Waiting for property damage and leaving a premises susceptible to complete intrusion before one might be notified? That is why it is always a good idea to increase the effectiveness of your security system by not just securing the inside of the building but also adding boundary surveillance to the boundary of the property. Well optimized boundary surveillance can help forestall unauthorized entries into a building. This type of surveillance includes outdoor PIR detectors that cover entry points as well as the surrounding area to monitor for signs of unaccounted activity.
