Perimeter security systems need to be designed to ensure comprehension protection of your facility, property, farm or business. A good system should give warning of possible intrusions before they get to and breech your perimeter. A comprehensive system is the first line of defense for your facility. Along with the protection of business premises, industrial facilities, and governmental locations, it also protects the personnel and valuable property situated within the protected area.

Types of perimeter security systems:

There are various types of perimeter security systems.

• CCTV security system: This type of perimeter security system is primarily used during day time hours to
capture the movement on the fringes of a property.
• Access control system: These types of perimeter security systems are used to restrict the entry and exit of the
unauthorized persons or vehicles to a perimeter or building.
• Motion sensors: This type of perimeter security system is used to detect the movement by using infrared
rays.
• Thermal Cameras: These types of systems use infrared to detect movement of people, animals or vehicles in
both daylight and in total darkness.
• Radar systems: These types of perimeter security solutions are used to detect the movement and presence in
more open areas.
• Fiber-optic detection system: These types of perimeter security systems are used to protect the walls and
fences by detecting with a fiber optic cable.
• Ground radar system: This type of security system is used to detect the presence of vehicles and people at
short distances.


Complexity:

The complexity of a perimeter security system depends on the various factors, some of which are given below:

• The size of the ground area needing protection.
• Presence of buildings, rocks, trees or other obstructions.
• The type of fencing, as some systems such as radar, do not perform well with chain link or fencing that
scatters the rays.
• Presence of moving water; IE: rivers, streams or oceans.
• The need of a passive or active system.
• The presence or lack of; lighting in, on or around the facility.
• Environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, salt, fog, etc.)
• The presence and requirement of network and power consumption of the system.
• The role of human guards in monitoring the system or responding to alerts.

Need for a perimeter security system:

A perimeter security system plays a vital role in protecting property and the lives of humans. There are various applications and areas that need a robust perimeter security system. Some of these reasons are given below:

• Power Generation facilities, Hydro and treatment locations, Oil& Gas facilities.
• Mining Operations
• Facilities having large ground areas including logistical centers, warehouses, data centers, and business
centers.
• Private farms, estates, and ranches.
• Industrial and factory enterprises due to significant property assets.
• Military facilities including forward operating bases, border crossings, and check points.
• Airports, docks, ports, and surrounding areas.
• Prisons, jails, and other federal and municipal facilities.
