Mechanical Burglary Protection

Effective protection of objects can only be realized by equivalent security of all possible accesses - both on the ground floor and in the upper floors. Both the entrance door and all patio doors, cellar doors, windows, balcony windows, cellar windows, and light wells must be considered.

 

Ground floor apartments are just as secure as single-family homes. For apartments above the ground floor is mainly the main entrance door to secure.

 

Doors

The door protection must not be limited to certain areas, such as only the lock or the lock cylinder.

 

  • Mortise lock

For door locks, we recommend insert or cylinder locks with multipoint locking and, depending on requirements, additional lock variants.

 

  • Lock cylinder with security card

Lock cylinders are an important component of the door security, but can only provide security in the system unit lock, locking cylinder, security fitting, and strike plate. It is important that the latch of a cylinder or mortise lock with multi-point locking engages at least 2 cm deep into the strike plate. Locking cylinders with security card are recommended to protect against unauthorized copying.

 

  • Additional locks (with locking bar)

Additional locks serve to increase the resistance of the doors.

 

  • Cross-bolt locks

Cross-bolt locks with the advantage of securing the lock and hinge sides at the same time ensure particularly high burglary protection.

 

Additional Occupancy Protection

The protection of the person in the present has the highest priority next to the mechanical or electronic burglar protection and the alarm continuation.

 

  • peephole

One of the most common components of occupancy protection is the door spy: an optical glass insert placed at eye level in the entrance doors of apartments, houses or business premises. It makes it possible to see only from the inside to the outside and thus to make a picture of the visitor standing in front of the door when the front door is closed.

 

  • Additional lock with locking bar

Additional security locks with locking bracket and rear hooks help to protect against unwanted intrusion when the door is open.

 

  • Intercom / video intercom

Intercoms/video intercoms allow in single and multi-family houses or business premises, control of access already at the house, garden or second - door. The entrance doors can then also be opened via the intercom/video intercom, whereby the video intercom - also like the peephole - allows to see the visitor on the doorstep without being seen.

 

  • Access control (for business premises)

Access control systems offer advantages, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises. Here, the regulation of passenger transport is in the foreground. With an access control system, certain people can be granted access to certain rooms or parts of buildings at certain times.

 

Electronic Burglary Protection

In addition to mechanical fuses, electronic security systems form the second area of ​​burglary protection. They give the burglar the time to become active undetected on the object. In addition, you can quickly call for help. The center of electronic burglary protection is alarm systems. Here, a distinction is made between burglar alarm systems and hazard warning systems, which provide additional functions.

 

  • Alarm systems in detail 

Intrusion detection systems (EMA) respond immediately to intruders - on the one hand as an internal, audible signal to the residents and as a deterrent to the intruder and/or on the other hand as silent alarm forwarding to the emergency call center of a security and security company. The noise of an alarm is likely to cause the offender to stop his intrusion. Silent alerting to a security and security company may help to arrest the burglar. In about 75 percent of cases in which a burglary was signaled by an alarm system with a silent alarm, the perpetrator could be asked by the police.
