What are the security systems that you should use for your safety?

In this article, we would like to introduce electronic security systems that you can use for your medium and large-sized buildings, facilities, factories, warehouses, etc. At first, electronic security systems may seem like a serious investment, and you may even consider giving up on implementing them, but when the time comes, these investments will more than pay off.

In this article, we would like to introduce electronic security systems that you can use for your medium and large-sized buildings, facilities, factories, warehouses, etc. At first, electronic security systems may seem like a serious investment, and you may even consider giving up on implementing them, but when the time comes, these investments will more than pay off. The order may vary, but as an expert, I would like to start with the most important systems and then move down the list, going into detail with you.

Fire Detection and Alarm Systems:

Fire detection and alarm systems are the essential electronic security system for buildings. It is impossible to imagine a building without a fire detection and alarm system. Your investment can turn into ashes within a few hours due to a fire. Fire can cause very serious material and moral losses. The only way to minimize the risk of fire and to intervene and extinguish the fire at the initial stage is to use a fire detection system. The buildings that require the installation of fire detection systems are already determined by the fire regulations. Fire detection systems are a mandatory security system for buildings that meet certain conditions according to the regulations.

Emergency Announcement Systems:

Emergency announcement systems are another important security system that should be present in your building and facility. Emergency announcement systems are a system that you can use to inform people in the building and facility in case of fire, earthquake, explosion, or gas leak. Emergency announcement systems are generally integrated with fire detection systems. You can use emergency announcement systems to make announcements in case of emergency or to broadcast music to specific areas. As mentioned in the fire regulations, emergency announcement systems are a mandatory security system for buildings and facilities that meet certain conditions.

Card Access Control Systems:

Card access control systems, also known as access control systems, are another important electronic security system that should be present in buildings for security purposes. With card access systems, you can restrict entry and exit to specific areas of your building and facility. Unauthorized persons can be prevented from entering designated areas. Burglary or unauthorized entry attempts can be monitored and responded to. Card access control systems are integrated with other access control systems, such as turnstile systems. Nowadays, card access control systems can be integrated with CCTV security camera systems via software to monitor door access.

Security Camera Systems:

Security camera systems are also an important security system that can be found in small and large buildings and facilities. Nowadays, we can see security cameras everywhere we look, whether it be small or large. Camera systems play a significant role in solving important incidents as we can monitor the environment live and check recorded footage if necessary. Therefore, camera systems have become widespread rapidly. Nowadays, security camera systems can be integrated with card access control systems and fire detection systems via software. Camera resolutions have increased significantly in recent years. The current camera resolutions are between FullHD and 4K, and different resolutions are used.

Electronic Security Systems

Burglar Alarm Systems:

Burglar alarm systems are mostly preferred for homes and shops, but they can also be preferred when a certain special area in a building or facility needs to be protected. For example, burglar alarm systems are preferred in large warehouses or similar areas connected to a facility. Burglar alarm systems can make phone calls and can also be connected to Alarm Receiving Centers (ARCs) if desired.

Access Control Systems:

I want to explain all access control systems here. In terms of entry, it is possible to divide them into pedestrian and vehicle entries. Different access control systems are available for vehicle entries such as boom barriers, rising bollards, and road blockers. Under high-security conditions, under vehicle inspection systems are also used. Generally, these systems work in integration with card access control systems.

For pedestrian or staff entries, turnstile systems, x-ray machines, and door-type metal detectors are used to prevent unauthorized access.

Here, we tried to provide brief information about security systems that can be used in a building or facility, and we will try to provide detailed information about the systems in the future.
