Farebrother Chartered Surveyors has deployed the Avigilon HD Surveillance System at the building at 20 Old Bailey in central London, located across from the UK's Central Criminal Court.
The Center Criminal Court, a high-profile location, has created a heightened understanding of threat for the tenants at 20 Old Bailey, and the Avigilon HD Surveillance helps address their security needs, says a statement from Vancouver, BC-based Avigilon.
'We are able to provide the City of London Police with high quality footage to be used as evidence if required,' Jon Batt, partner in charge of the Facilities and Corporate Estate Management team at Farebrother Chartered Surveyors, said in a statement. 'Our previous analog-based surveillance system was unable to provide the clarity and detail required to meet our needs. We selected the Avigilon HD Surveillance System because of its performance and image quality.'
With the assistance of Argonaught Network Technologies Ltd., a local provider of surveillance system design, installation, and service, the management team at 20 Old Bailey installed Avigilon five megapixel cameras on the exterior of the building to monitor traffic, the parking lot, and the main entrance. With ten floors and a 30-car parking lot, 20 Old Bailey houses a business management consultancy, two merchant banks, and an international airline, and is the office for 1,900 workers and 25,000 visitors annually.
