Construction site security catches intruders completely unanawares

When burglars broke into the Leeds premises of one of Tag Guard’s clients they probably thought nothing of the innocuous looking boxes left on the floor – little did they realise they were wireless IR movement sensors.

When thieves recently broke into the Leeds premises of one of Tag Guard’s clients they were not aware of the building site security system.  They probably thought nothing of the innocuous looking square boxes left on the floor, with no cables attached.  Little did they realise these were Tag Guard wireless IR movement sensing detectors – they had been removed from their correct wall mounted location and left on the floor in preparation for decorating work.

These and other wireless detectors that were still in position tracked the thieves’ entry and every movement around the warehouse building.  The sensors alerted Tag Guard’s 24-hour alarm receiving centre where Tag Guard staff in turn alerted their local mobile security patrol partner – and the thieves were caught “red handed”.

“The integrity of our wireless security system, TagAlarm, has been demonstrated very clearly - even when some of the equipment was no longer fixed in the correct positions the movement detectors worked perfectly” said Richard Lang, Managing Director of Tag Guard Ltd,
