The
ArtGuard System is ideal for protecting all aspects of the garden,
whether large or small, public or private.
Police statistics
prove that even the small, privately owned garden without public
access is no longer immune from the attention of thieves and
vandals. The situation for the larger, commercially run property
that invites members of the public into the garden, and advertises
the fact, is even more acute.
The ArtGuard
System offers the perfect solution to a wide range of security
problems in the garden and its environs.
Statues &
Furniture can he individually tagged and any attempt
to move one will immediately cause the Transmitter to alert the
Base Station and sound the alarm. Correctly installed, the ArtGuard
System can work with any type of material; special care must
be taken where iron, lead, bronze etc.are concerned because,
in some circumstances, there may be possible interference with
the AGS radio transmission.
Plant Pots &
Displays can be tagged by placing a Transmitter just
below the surface of the soil. Any attempt to remove the item
or pull the contents from a container will trigger the alarm.
Garden Equipment
can have a Transmitter fixed unobtrusively to its framework (eg.
beneath the seat of a lawnmower). A Transmitter might be attached
to a shed door to offer instant protection against unauthorised
entry.
Valuable possessions,
often kept in sheds and out-houses (eg. mountain bikes), can
also be permanently tagged to provide instant protection
when left in the protected garden area.
NOTE: the Base
Station must be turned off before any item tagged
is moved, otherwise the alarm will immediately sound.
ESTATES &
COMMERCIAL
The ArtGuard
System is idea for garden centres and other commercial retailers
who feature a wide range of goods on display with free ranging
public access. Portable and flexible, the ArtGuard System has
many and varied applications:
For example:
a stack of fence panels leaning against a wall can he secured
simply by tagging the outside panel.
A pile of fertiliser
bags can be protected by tagging a net or tarpaulin
draped over the bags on top of the pile.
Large pots can
be secured by tagging the top item of the stack or,
if stand alone, by attaching individual Transmitters.
Valuable shrubs
can have a Transmitter placed an inch below the surface of the
soil any disturbance sounds the alarm.
No tagged
item may be removed without authorisation and even if potential
thieves are familiar with the ArtGuard System, they are powerless
to remove a Transmitter tag without triggering the alarm.
WARNING
The Police always
advise against members of the public attempting to accost or
detain criminals caught in the act. It is strongly recommended
that the audible DETERRENT of the ArtGuard Series 3 is selected
unless there are experienced security officers on site when a
silent alarm option might be considered applicable.
ARTGUARD SECURITY
SYSTEMS are recognised by leading insurers and in certain circumstances
the installation of an ArtGuard System for the garden might have
a beneficial effect on premiums.
