When selecting security systems to be installed at warehouses, factories, public areas, campuses, and office parks consider the following critical components which make the difference between vulnerable and high quality security systems:

• Is the system compatible with major platforms in the industry?
• Will the system be cost effective?
• Will the installation be affordable?
• Does it offer 24/7 monitoring abilities?
• Does it have built-in redundancy features?
• Is there a critical power solution and backup UPS?
• How scalable is the solution?
• Can it be integrated with the fire protection, surveillance, building management, critical power, and access control systems of the building?

We take all the above into consideration when we recommend and install security systems ensuring that you save on installation costs and maintenance whilst improving the overall security of your building considerably.

Access control is not only efficient at corporate office parks, but also applicable to e-learning centres such as Deloitte Consulting which runs a computer learning centre with fifty computers. To reduce the risk of unauthorized tampering with computers, databases and information, they wanted an access control system installed. We went the route of biometrics whereby fingerprint recognition would be used for allowing or limiting access to the computers. Each student would have a level of access granted to a specific database and the subsequent modules. The student usage could be monitored and tampering with progress reports prevented. Many campuses in South Africa now recognize the value of access control systems such as biometrics for controlling and monitoring of computers in their labs.

We offer integrated security and building protection solutions to clients whether retailers, campuses, airports or warehouses. The advantages offered by a high quality surveillance system are numerous. The surveillance system can be used once integrated with other applications such as fire protection and biometrics to:

• Track the movement of products, vehicles, assets, and workers on the premises.
• Check the loading bays and ensure that correct products are loaded.
• Monitor the perimeter and ensure that unauthorized entry is detected.
• Reduce the risk of intruders.
• Improve productivity when the workers know that monitoring takes place.
• Reduce shrinkage because of theft.

Contact us for an integrated solution to your company security that involves biometrics, a high quality surveillance system, fire detectors and protection, alarms, biometrics, keypads, and IP monitoring as well as parking management, and critical power solutions.

IDTek offers clients the latest technology to help secure their premises. Take for example the benefits of Bosch IP surveillance systems which can be installed and maintained by IDTek. Clients obtain the advantage of having 24/7 surveillance abilities and special alert features. The cost of installing Bosch IP surveillance systems is low since intelligence is applied in the cameras also offering secure signalling ability. The signal is encoded before being transmitted. This offers the cost saving of not having to install additional encoder apparatus. A further benefit offered is that numerous surveillance streams can be transmitted through a single line whilst interlacing problems are dealt with through the process of progressive scanning.

IDTek offers clients advanced critical power solutions through the supply and installation of InfraStruXure technology. The advantages of InfraStruXure are numerous as can be seen from the example of the Boston Medical Centre HealthNet Plan. When they had to move their server from one floor to another in their building, they realized that they were now vulnerable in terms of critical power protection. Their first option was to go with an UPS and a backup generator. Unfortunately they would need to wait for a full year before they would have the full critical power protection required. They then heard about InfraStruXure which was installed within only hours. The human factor was also immediately addressed through smart cable wiring ensuring that accidental wrong wiring would not take place. Moving your data centre need not be a tremendously complicated process. Get in contact with us for more information about the InfraStruXure critical power protection that can be installed within hours.
