Smartair Standalone – the wireless door management system that puts you in charge.

Despite the tough economic climate you cannot afford to allow the security of your premises to lapse. In today’s working environment every minute is precious and the need for a seamlessly integrated security system that protects your assets without  unnecessarily inconveniencing staff and visitors is more important than ever.

Smartair

Standalone, a wirefree RFID door management system, is ideal for any SME looking for an access control solution to help provide a secure and safe working environment. Specifically developed to offer a cost effective and simple way to upgrade from a traditional mechanical security solution; Smartair Standalone’s intelligent door management system offers many of the benefits associated with high-end access control products.

The attractive, slimline Standalone unit is battery operated to eliminate the need for an expensive wired installation and does not require complex software to set-up and administer. It operates with a traditional mechanical door lock and can therefore be fitted to many existing door locks.

It offers users convenient, secure keyless access with audit capabilities on both internal and external doors.

The simple management system allows administrators to quickly add and remove users while access tokens can be integrated with time and attendance systems or cashless vending facilities on the same site.

With an increasing amount of financial losses due to retail theft, our dome or round security mirrors act as a powerful deterrent, eliminating blind spots and allowing staff or security personnel to better monitor their surroundings and inconspicuously observe customer movements. The mirrors can also be used where visibility is restricted in environments such as factories, warehouses and hospitals to reduce the possibility of collision, human injury and stock damage.

One of the most popular selling items sold in our Northgate shop are padlocks.  With over 300 padlocks in stock you are sure to find the right lock for you needs.Our full range of padlocks stretches from the small padlock for luggage to high security padlocks used for commercial and industrial uses.  We stock padlocks with combinations to padlocks with complete key control where no keys can be produced without the owners consent – and everything in between!

More about safes and insurance…

Business and personal safes for storing currency come with different degrees of security, which is based on the amount of currency they hold, with varying degrees of security.

When you hear of “Cash Rating Safes”, increasing security and safety measures are built in to increase as currency levels increase. In addition, a cash rating is the amount of cash an insurance company will offer overnight cover and this can vary between insurance companies and may be higher or lower than the rating. Some cash rating safes offer fire protection and some do not, in all grades of cash rating safes.

Cash ratings indicate level of security by such factors as thickness of walls, the lock and bolt works and barrier materials used. As a general rule, cash ratings are multiplied by a factor of 10 for non-cash or jewellery rating. As a guide, you can store approximately £10,000 of jewellery in £1,000 cash rated safe High Cash rated safes have been tested to Euro Grade specifications, this grading system starts at Grade 0, which has a cash rating of £6,000.So the Euro Grade System on Cash rating safes is:

• Grade 0- £6,000
• Grade 1- £10,00
• Grade 2- £17,500
• Grade 3- £35,000
• Grade 4- £60,000
• Grade 5- £100,000
• Grade 6- £150,000

As the Grade gets higher, protection increases, triple steel walls, concrete filled walls, dual locking system of key and combination or replacement of one entry with electronic, multiple locking areas, drill-proof locking mechanisms, some have fire protection, and some do not. It is important to realise that since insurance cover is 10 times the cash rating, it is obvious that the security on a Grade 6, for example, with an insurance cash rating of 150,000, is going to fall under a jewellery and valuable insurance cover of 150,0000, so protection, materials and workmanship will reflect the additional insurance cover.

Digital electronic access eliminates the possibility of security compromise in the event of safe key theft or combination theft, however, most cash rated safes in the higher grades offer dual locking mechanisms in case of failure of one or the other. Digital Electronic Access allows you to change an access code easily and quickly, immediately locking out other users and possible security breaches. A combination of two locking mechanisms, especially involving a key, limits access in that entry would be necessary by having a key and knowing the combination or electronic access code.

It is important to note, that if you store more cash than the safe is rated for and a burglary occurred, an insurance cover may not reimburse more than the safe is rated for. On the same note, if jewellery and valuables or a combination of cash and jewellery exceed those ratings, the full contents may not be reimbursed under insurance cover. It is important that you purchase a safe that will offer the insurance cover for the actual contents of the cash rating safe, and that your locking mechanisms offer security in access to the safe, and it is recommended that you purchase a safe that also has a fire rating for higher grades of cash and valuables storage, as well.
