Our Favourite Security System Automation Technologies to Keep Your Occupants Safe

Good security system automation is about more than access control and video cameras—building integration blends HVAC, automation and electric seamlessly for your convenience and safety. 

Security system automation can have amazing benefits for keeping your building and its occupants safe and secure. Here are some of our favourite tools in the tool belt:

Ahead of technologies

Our partner in security is Delta Controls—a long-time favourite of ours for their ability to remain at the forefront of industry technologies. We rely on Delta’s equipment and software for a wide range of building automation applications, including sensor technology and smart boards, but also the innovative ways they can help keep your building secure. 

Access control

You’ve probably seen access control systems in buildings, and maybe even use one at your work or home. A simple key fob allows approved occupants access, giving security to not only occupants but any sensitive materials in the building. 

The Delta Control 03 Access System takes that technology lightyears further through building automation integration, blending building access, HVAC, and lighting automation together through a single access point. We can write an entire blog on the benefits of the 03 alone!

Cybersecurity

With digital technology playing a more and more monumental role in our lives, it’s hard to imagine a world where cybersecurity isn’t top of mind. Cyber security software is built into the Delta Controls products we use from the very beginning. Ongoing cybersecurity advisories keep our clients ahead of any potential threats and vulnerabilities. 

Cameras

Not only can security cameras deter theft and vandalism by their presence alone, but they can also help to provide evidence if needed and real-time monitoring on CCTV. We use VIVOTEK cameras because of their megapixel resolution, analytic functions, and because they are the industry leader for low-light footage capture, making them an excellent choice for a wide range of uses.
