Emergency service providers are the community’s heroes, and the team at Security Solutions is here to ensure their sites are secure while enabling fast deployment when a call comes in.
Find out how our perimeter security measures, Preventative Planned Maintenance (PPM), and Reactive Callout packages are supporting the UK’s emergency service workers.
Why Is Reliable Perimeter Security So Vital For Emergency Services Providers?
Emergency service providers are the people we turn to when we’re most in need. As such, they need to always be ready to get out and support their local communities. Firefighters, police officers, and paramedics need to know that their equipment, be it an ambulance or fire hose, is ready to go as soon as an emergency call comes in.
They also need to feel confident that their facilities are safe and secure. That’s where partnering with a reliable security company can make the world of difference. It’s also essential that these teams can act quickly. Any issues, such as a security gate failing to open, can slow response times down — with potentially disastrous results.
At Security Solutions, we’re dedicated to providing the best perimeter security measures for a variety of businesses and sectors, including those at high risk. While we design and fit custom security gates and barriers, our commitment goes beyond installation. We also provide service and maintenance packages that ensure every piece of security equipment is working as it should.
We’re proud to have been chosen by two major emergency service providers in the UK to supply and maintain their perimeter security measures and provide both ongoing maintenance and emergency callout services.
They know that we deliver the highest levels of standards and respond quickly when they need us.
Let’s take a closer look at how our PPM and Reactive Callout services are supporting police and firefighting teams, adding to our existing commitment to providing blue light services with security measures they can rely on.
What Is The Difference Between Preventative Planned Maintenance (PPM) and Reactive Callout services?
Police stations, medical centres, and fire stations all require robust security measures to ensure teams are safe, equipment can’t be tampered with, and intruders can’t gain unauthorised access.
From automatic rising arm barriers and security gates to bollards and road blockers, these spaces tend to need a range of installations. However, a fit-and-forget approach can lead to all manner of issues. What happens if a sliding security gate gets stuck and an ambulance can’t get out of the depot to attend to a person in crisis? What about if a rising arm barrier won’t close and intruders can wander in and vandalise a police station?
Maintenance and servicing can reduce the likelihood of these scenarios.
Preventative Planned Maintenance (PPM)
One of the best ways to keep perimeter security measures running as they should is to get a dependable PPM schedule in place.
Preventative Planned Maintenance covers regular, pre-planned servicing and repairs to identify potential problems and prevent small issues from becoming serious. It can also extend the equipment’s lifespan.
We provide our emergency service clients with:
- Security gate maintenance (including automated gates)
- Bollard maintenance
- Automatic rising arm barrier maintenance
- Road blocker maintenance
Put simply, anything we install, we will keep an eye on to make sure that:
- Any moving parts glide with ease
- Gates shut and lock as they should
- Sensors, lights, and any other features work properly
- Access control systems are in full working order
- Any wear and tear is fixed before it can cause any damage
Perhaps most importantly, our PPM packages ensure that every security measure we install complies with strict health and safety regulations stipulated by UK guidelines.
Reactive Callout
Unfortunately, accidents can happen. Sometimes, even preventative measures can’t eliminate the chance of damage or issues with a security system.
If this happens, we’ll get it sorted as soon as possible. We offer 24/7 Reactive Callout services to get our clients’ systems working as they should and providing reliable protection.
Whether it’s a jammed bi fold security gate or an access control system failure, our qualified engineers will be there — day or night — to resolve the problem and make sure emergency service providers can do their job.
