At Plug & Play Solutions, we specialise in high-tech security for commercial entities, yet we recognise the interconnectedness of residential and business needs.
A recent surge in opportunistic crime in Centurion’s areas such as Highveld, Rooihuiskraal, Wierda Park, and surrounding locales underscores the urgency for robust security measures in both domains.
Wall Jumping
Late-night activities involving ‘wall jumpers’ have been reported frequently between 22:00 and 02:00. These intruders traverse perimeter walls and access patio roofs to pilfer valuable items from both residential and commercial properties. Such incidents predominantly involve the theft of small electronic goods, easily accessible through open windows of apartment buildings and offices alike.
Charnel Hattingh, Group Head of Marketing & Communications at Fidelity, emphasises the critical nature of perimeter security. “The perimeter is not just a boundary but your first line of defence against potential intruders,” Hattingh explains. For businesses and homeowners alike, securing this boundary can significantly deter criminal elements.
Security Strategies for Commercial and Residential Properties:
- Enhanced Perimeter Defences: Whether it’s for your business premises or residential property, consider installing advanced physical barriers such as high-grade fencing solutions, complemented by barbed or razor wire.
- Integrated Systems: Utilise technology-driven solutions like CCTV surveillance and remote monitoring systems that can provide real-time security updates and reduce human error.
- Access Control and Early Warning Systems: Implement electronic access controls and maintain stringent key management protocols. Early warning systems such as garden beams or sophisticated electric fencing should be professionally installed and regularly maintained.
- Secure and Smart Locking Mechanisms: Ensure all entry points, including gate motors, are encased in secure, tamper-proof structures. Smart locks can offer both convenience and enhanced security through features like remote access control and monitoring.
- Family and Staff Training: Engage not only your family but also your staff in security protocols. Consider equipping them with remote panic buttons and ensure they are trained in emergency response procedures.
Charnel Hattingh concludes, “By addressing small vulnerabilities in your security setup, you can achieve significant peace of mind. It’s crucial for both businesses and homeowners to remain vigilant and proactive in their security practices.”
