Government Building Security

The Importance of Government Building Security

The importance of government building security is foremost the protection of life and property. Because of the higher probability of an attack on government buildings, safety and security systems are a necessity. Government buildings are also not immune to other crimes such as theft and vandalism. The buildings are likewise susceptible to hazards for instance fire, carbon monoxide poisoning.

Government Building Security – A Necessity
Ranging from offices, courthouses to city halls and educational institutions, all government buildings require layers of security solutions to help minimize the risks faced to life and property. Starting from the entry point, all these security issues puts not just employees, but the public who use these facilities at risk.

Security solutions for government entities are, therefore, necessary to:

Protect valuable public and private information
Secure property
Protect employees, clients, and visitors

Ways to Protect Government Buildings

Customized, High-Security Access Control
One of the first suggestions by the USDA for improving building security is to install key-card access systems at main entrances. This is because controlling access to government buildings is one of the principal ways to maintain a secure building. It makes it difficult for persons with ill-intent to gain access without authorization.
Improved, High Impact Fencing
Improving the fencing of government property is one way to begin securing the premises. Make it harder for would-be criminals and terrorists to get to the building with a fence that has monitored gates, sensors and cameras. Closed circuit monitoring devices put security in your hands. And gives you more control over access supervision. They also act as a deterrent.
Reliable, Accurate Wireless Sensors
Fire and flood can destroy important government documents and public records. Smoke and toxic gasses can harm employees and visitors. With wireless sensors, you reduce the damage that can be done from these risks.
24/7 Alarm Monitoring
A UL listed monitoring center dedicated to maintaining 24/7 monitoring of the premises ensures that nothing is left to chance.
Expert Audits of Security Systems
Periodic tests and inspections of the security system by specialist technicians is also important. This ensures that the system is up to date. It prevents issues with faulty wiring, defunct monitors, or tampering.
