Comprehensive Security Strategies for Estates in Nigeria by AV Securitas
Security is one of the most critical considerations for estate management in Nigeria. Whether residential or mixed-use, ensuring the safety of residents, property, and visitors is essential for maintaining a secure environment, enhancing the reputation of the estate, and increasing its value. AV Securitas provides estate security strategies that are not only robust but also tailored to the specific needs of each estate, incorporating both cutting-edge technology and experienced personnel to deliver optimal results.
1. Perimeter Security and Surveillance
The first line of defense in estate security is the protection of the perimeter. AV Securitas ensures that estate perimeters are fortified with robust fencing and gates, supported by modern surveillance systems such as CCTV cameras placed strategically around the estate. These cameras monitor all entry and exit points, ensuring that all activities around the perimeter are recorded and scrutinized in real-time from our 24/7 control room.
Drone Patrol of Blind Spots
One of the most innovative aspects of AV Securitas’ estate security solution is the use of drone patrols to monitor blind spots and hard-to-reach areas within the estate. While CCTV cameras are fixed in place, drones offer flexibility, allowing security personnel to patrol areas that may be hidden from view or difficult to access by foot. Drones can be deployed at regular intervals to patrol the estate, ensuring full coverage and reducing the possibility of any security breach.
2. Visitor Management and Vehicle Searches
The effective management of visitors is a crucial part of estate security, as uncontrolled access to the estate can pose significant risks. AV Securitas employs a strict visitor management system to ensure that only authorized individuals enter the estate.
Visitor Vehicle Searches and history
To prevent the transportation of unauthorized items or weapons into the estate, AV Securitas conducts thorough searches of all vehicles entering the estate.
Upon entry, all visitors are required to provide identification, which is recorded into a digital visitor management system.
3. Tenant and Guest Information Management
Maintaining an accurate database of tenants and their guests is an essential part of estate security. AV Securitas helps estate management create and maintain a secure database that includes tenant profiles, vehicle details, emergency contacts, and any other relevant information. For guests staying for extended periods, they are also required to be logged into the system, ensuring estate management has a clear view of who is residing within the premises at all times.
Benefits of Information Management
• In the event of a security incident, accurate tenant and guest information allows security personnel and law enforcement to quickly identify and locate individuals.
• The database ensures that only authorized individuals gain access to secure areas within the estate, such as recreational centers, gyms, and swimming pools, reducing the risk of intruders accessing estate amenities.
• It enhances trust between the estate management and residents, knowing that proper checks and balances are in place to ensure their safety.
4. Manned Guarding and Patrols
The physical presence of highly trained security personnel plays a critical role in ensuring estate security. AV Securitas deploys well-trained guards to man entrances, patrol the estate, and respond to any security alerts. These guards are equipped to handle various security scenarios, from conflict resolution to emergency response, ensuring a safe living environment for all residents.
Mobile Patrol Units
Apart from stationary guards, mobile patrol units regularly move around the estate, maintaining a visible presence in common areas, driveways, and parking lots. This deters criminal activity and ensures immediate response to any security breaches.
