Access Control
Obsidian truly leads the field in sophisticated and versatile access control. Our modular and scalable systems are equally suited to the humble village hall as they are a large, multi-site industrial company. Flexible design means that the systems can be cost-effectively deployed in small applications, with just a few controlled entry points, and equally meet the large-scale needs of a multiple site organisation.
- Photo-ID
- Safety Registration
- Time & Attendance reporting
- Fire Roll-call listing
- Guard-tour and Asset Tracking
- Real-time event and alarm monitoring
- Multi-site/Multi-tenant administration
- Barrier systems and gate automation
Our systems will integrate fully with other systems such as CCTV & Intruder Alarms, and can link to non-security systems such as Fire Alarms, Building Management, Time and Attendance, Cashless Catering and Human Resource staff management applications.
Intruder Alarms
We specialise in bespoke intruder alarm systems for industrial, commercial and public premises, tailored to the specific needs of each client, and their insurance providers. Our systems are fully customisable and can be integrated with fire systems, access control, CCTV and security lighting.
Intelligent and cost-effective CCTV
- Internet Protocol (IP) systems utilise web-based technology to make CCTV more flexible and reduce installation costs
- Fully customisable - tailored to each site
- Remote monitoring service provides audio communication link with the site - for challenging intruders or simply reassuring individuals of their safety
- Combines with intelligent security lighting
IP Cameras
IP camera systems are moving the boundary’s when it comes to both image quality and fully automated ‘analytics’ that asses if something in view requires further attention - such as an unattended bag - and draw it to the attention of the operator.
Digital Video Recording
We can digitally record analogue signals from your conventional CCTV cameras, providing simultaneous recording, playback and archiving, with sophisticated search functions that quickly find specific events that meet your criteria.
IP cameras and Network recorders can link directly into your existing IT infrastructure, keeping installation costs low and providing control and access functions from different workstations.
Enables a cost-effective upgrade to more sophisticated system while still retailing some of the existing equipment.
Other applications for CCTV:
Health and Safety
- Provides proactive tools for effective risk analysis to both staff and public safety
- Near misses/unsafe working practices quickly identified and mitigated
- In the event of an incident CCTV can provide evidence as to the exact cause or circumstances
Retail Shrinkage / Loss prevention
- Capture shoplifters red-handed
- Combating staff theft
Enhancing Manufacturing & Production Line Efficiency
- Cameras overlooking production lines are commonly used to analyse activity and quality standards.
- Employees can be monitored for work efficiency
- Hazardous work areas can be studied and evaluated from a safe distance.
