Integrated Systems for High-Security Client
Client type
High-Security​
​
Solutions implemented
Access Control, CCTV, Intruder, Physical Barriers, Biometric Authentication and Visitor Management
Following a successful tender and design process, Nexus Security Solutions deployed and integrated an electronic security solution for a high-security client, inclusive of access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection, and a visitor management solution. The goal was to ensure maximum security, while maintaining operational efficiency and a seamless user experience.
Strategy and solution
High-Security Requirements: The client needed a system capable of managing sensitive areas, with strict access protocols that was NPSA and CAPSS assured.
Integration Complexity: Multiple systems had to work together, including access control, video management, intrusion alarms, speed lanes and metal detection systems.
-
Access Control: Gallagher High-Security Command Centre Access Control was implemented for centralised management and compliance with stringent security standards.
-
Video Surveillance: Milestone XProtect VMS for real-time monitoring and advanced video analytics, ensuring comprehensive situational awareness.
-
Intrusion Detection: Honeywell Galaxy Alarm System for reliable intrusion monitoring and alarm response.
-
Physical Barriers: Boon Edam Speedlanes installed at entry and exit points to control pedestrian flow and prevent unauthorised access.
-
Biometric Authentication: Idemia VisionPass facial recognition devices integrated with proximity readers on speed lanes for secure and frictionless entry/exit.
-
Visitor Management: A streamlined visitor management system to register, authenticate, and track visitors efficiently.
Integration Highlight
-
Biometric and proximity authentication enhanced security while maintaining speed and convenience on the Boon Edam lanes.
Results
-
Enhanced Security: Multi-layered protection with biometric verification and intrusion detection.
-
Operational Efficiency: Reduced bottlenecks at entry/exit points through speedlane automation.
-
Improved Visitor Experience: Quick and secure visitor registration and access.
Service delivery
-
Long term service contract including, management of third-party equipment, SLAs, KPIS and PPMs.
-
Regular technical visits, to keep application and firmware up to date and patched along with ongoing licensing and integration.
-
Power down and power up annual support.
-
Regular management Information reporting.
Key Takeaways:
This project demonstrates how working with the key advanced security technologies can be integrated to deliver a secure, efficient, and user-friendly environment.
By combining Gallagher access control, Milestone VMS, Honeywell intrusion systems, Boon Edam speedlanes, and Idemia biometrics, we achieved a holistic security ecosystem tailored to the client’s needs in a modern office environment.
Don't just take our word for it
Working with Nexus and the fit-out contractor has been demanding due to the complexities of our facility and the infrastructure along with multiple stakeholders, but Nexus have worked with professionalism, technical competency and commitment throughout, and we have now established a long-term partnership for future support and expansion"
