Lifeline provides a comprehensive range of electronic security solutions to the Commercial and Retail sectors. One of the leading products in this market is the provision of Intruder Alarm protection. Lifeline is committed to the provision of high quality reliable intruder alarm systems.

The threat of intrusion is sufficient enough. However in today’s modern world, the subsequent losses can be even greater. The overall disruption, loss of business, data and reputation can also have adverse affects. Lifeline are experts in providing comprehensive electronic security solutions to reduce these specific threats.

In most cases insurers insist on the provision of an Intruder Alarm System installed and maintained by an NSI Gold installer in order to provide suitable insurance. Maintaining insurance cover and police response is essential to the smooth and effective protection of any retail or commercial operation.

By working closely with and partnering with leading manufacturers such as BT Redcare, Dualcom GPRS, we provide systems that can be linked to alarm receiving centres, providing monitoring 24 hrs / 365 days per year.

Alongside other measures including physical security and intruder alarms, CCTV is proving to be one the most effective deterrents against crime. This powerful method sends out a message immediately to any would be perpetrator that ‘CCTV is in operation’. Studies have shown sharp reductions in criminal activity where CCTV systems are in operation. The rise in town centre CCTV systems has in many cases reduced crime in the town, however often activity then moves out to industrial and business estates. Many business owners have found that by operating their own CCTV system, they have been able to protect themselves as well.
CCTV has provided businesses with many other advantages too. These might include the monitoring of vehicle movements, health & safety control and the reduction of shrinkage to name just a few.

The dangers of the outbreak of fire are never more real than they are today. Great emphasis is placed not only on the prevention, but also the reduction of risk, control measures and ultimately early detection and warning. Sources indicate that many businesses that suffer a significant fire, do not survive as a result.

The recent introduction of the Fire Safety Reform Order places the responsibility on the business or building owners to ensure that adequate and effective methods of Fire Detection and Warning are in place. What ever the size of business or building, effective Fire Control Measures must be put into place.

Given the environment we live in today, the days of free access to all parts of commercial properties is rapidly coming to an end. More and more the ability to determine in advance who can have access to certain areas of commercial properties is appealing to company management. Many companies now operate a ‘sterile’ area in reception to which callers and members of the public can have access, but thereafter, access to other parts of the site are controlled.

Many organisations now undertake works that are commercially sensitive, require bonded stores or even for health & safety reasons have to have restricted access.

The use of manual release buttons, coded panels, biometric or proximity readers to gain access to sensitive areas enables users to control personnel access. Many also use Access Control systems as a control measure to be able to track building usage or immediately change threat level. Stand-alone and PC based systems are tailored to suit individual requirements.

Door entry systems from simple single door panels linked to remote telephone points through multi-point systems allowing access to houses of multiple occupancy allow occupants to identify and allow or deny access to the premises.

Door entry systems can be built to suit each individual requirement. Using hybrid combinations, of speech only, vision and speech, or even speech, vision and coded access.
