Due to the copper wire, cable is a valuable commodity to thieves. Cable theft is popular amongst opportunistic thieves and organised criminals, with vacant properties a popular target. Consider the robust cable theft detection system from FRG Tremors to help secure your premises.
Why vacant properties are vulnerable to cable theft
A commercial property can be left unoccupied for various reasons, usually the objective is for the building owner to maintain the building to enable quicker reoccupation. Difficulties occur when vacant properties are a magnet for vandalism, trespass and theft. Whilst cable reels may be left stored in a vacant property, a real issue is thieves damaging walls and floors to access and rip out the cables.
This kind of cable theft can be costly and could also leave safety risks in exposed electrics, while the thieves can cause structural damage which can impact on other services and assets within the property. FRG Tremors helps to prevent cable theft by proactively monitoring vacant properties and alerting security teams to enact a fast response at the site.
FRG Tremors – how to prevent cable theft in your vacant property
FRG Tremors is a seismic sensor-based technology which works in three ways:
- Detect – The cable theft detector can sense any vibration, tilt or movement of cabling.
- React – Detection will alert our 24/7 monitoring centre, which triggers the deployment of patrols and response units.
- Recover – GPS tracking and anti-jamming detection within the system identifies attempts to remove or tamper with cabling, tracing the incident and providing an intervention to prevent theft.
We recommend a comprehensive security system for vacant properties which enables FRG Tremors to integrate with access control systems, perimeter detection systems, intruder alarms, security patrols and CCTV. This provides 24/7 security for your vacant property and safeguards your asset.
