Museum security
APT Security provide bespoke solutions to satisfy the complex needs of Museums and Heritage sites, which are unique due to the number of irreplaceable, valuable items which need to be accessible to the public.
Often with museums and galleries and almost invariably with heritage buildings, the architectural designs are not sympathetic to modern security requirements. At the same security arrangements are vital in this sector considering the often priceless and irreplaceable nature of the items and buildings concerned.
Listed buildings have strict requirements and guidelines for any type of construction work carried out on the premises, therefore APT Security use the latest technology to provide wireless, radio system monitored burglar alarms, CCTV systems and Fire detection systems. Access control systems also regulate the number of people entering and leaving a site.
At the same time we recognise the necessity of cost efficiency. For example, by the prodigious use of the latest, but tried and tested equipment or by retrofitting new devices to existing cables systems we can develop security strategies that are considerate to tight budgets and free up valuable money for the more preserving our heritage or buying new exhibits.
