Upgrading your Security Systems?

Seven things you should know before you start upgrading your CCTV or Access Control/Security systems

1. Clearly understand where you are today! What you have where your problems are or have been – otherwise you won’t know if you have moved forward or even been going backwards.
2. Choose a Partner that has a bit of vision and has a track record with some great reference sites already in place. 
3. Speak to your peer’s get some feedback and input listen to their experiences.
4. Modern digital systems are scalable can integrate to other systems- BMS, Intruder, Fire – integration!
5. Compare like for like as far as systems being proposed -clearly understanding the different value propositions i.e. digital versus analogue in the case of CCTV
6. Don’t concentrate on just one component such as cameras look for open systems that offer you maximum choice and flexibility now and in the future.
7. All decisions should be strategic rather than just tactical - look at the medium to long term.
