Senseco December 2023 Newsletter


Seasons Greetings To All Of Our Clients

We would like to thank all of our clients for their support during another incredibly successful year and pass on our best wishes for the festive season. This year we have increased our geographical coverage in the north with the addition of Power Plus, a highly experienced fire alarm business in Yorkshire, and Guide Security, a specialist electronic security services provider in Blackburn to the Senseco team. We also launched our passive fire division which has gone from strength to strength with our holistic view to passive fire protection and software to asset tag all passive fire elements in a building when we carry out compartmentation surveys. We have added BM Trada for fire door inspections to our already impressive list of accreditations. All of this whilst adding some impressive sites to our maintenance portfolio and delivering many successful projects for fire alarm, passive fire, sprinklers, suppression, electronic security, emergency voice communication and remote monitoring systems.

We have a very dedicated team and a really loyal client base and we look forward to continuing to work with in 2024. We wish you and your families a safe, enjoyable Christmas and a successful New Year.

Senseco are Double Award Winners at Gallagher Security Awards Ceremony

Senseco are Double Award Winners at
Gallagher Security Awards Ceremony

 


 

At the Gallagher Security awards event at their UK Head Office in Warwick in July, Senseco were awarded two prestigious awards. Firstly the Gallagher Installation of The Year Award for the National Gallery Project. This was a project where we upgraded an existing obsolete access control system on site with a new Gallagher system.

This was carried out in a number of phases whilst keeping both systems operational side by side so there was no disruption to site. It was a complex project including having “middleware” written to export information from the old legacy system to the new Gallagher systems and use them together during the phased change over. It also included integration with many other systems including the Flir CCTV system and the Traka electronic key cabinet / control system. Our experience of using the Gallagher Access Control system and support from their team was second to none.

 

The second award was for Tony Gay as Gallagher Engineer Of The Year. Tony has worked extensively on most of our security sites for many years and was the lead engineer on the National Gallery Project. He ensured the very complex project ran smoothly and efficiently and had a close eye on all of the technical aspects. On winning the award he was congratulated by our National Gallery clients as below:

“Well done and thank you Tony for your outstanding efforts and support” – Ben Browne – Security Advisor – National Gallery.

 

“Well done Tony for delivering a high quality installation of the access control system with full integration of third party systems” – Michael Fox – Security and Fire Safety Management – National Gallery.

 

This is a very exciting development as Guide Security will support our national security systems growth and the development of our geographical growth in the North West, building on both their and our success. Senseco are proud to grow the services we offer and the coverage we can provide to our client base including:

Please talk to us about your requirements and we’d be pleased to help.

Somerset House

Somerset House is a heritage property dating back to 1547 in the heart of London. Although it is well known for it’s outdoor skating rink at Christmas and open air concerts in the summer, it has many other uses and accommodates many other tenants. It hosts the UK’s largest creative community working globally across art, technology, business and social enterprise.

The South Wing of Somerset House had a mix of hard wired fire detection system, an obsolete radio / wireless fire detection system and many aspiration systems, most no longeroperational. The project was to replace all of the systems in the South Wing with a single fire detection system for all areas and provide graphical representation of this wing and two other wings with legacy systems on a single graphics platform.

This was all to be carried out within a listed building with mixed use and different tenants with minimal disruption to day to day operations.

Castle Mall

Located in the centre of Norwich City, Castle Mall shopping centre comprises of 60 stores and food outlets, across five levels of retail and leisure, including an 8-screen Vue cinema. The centre also boasts a 790 space multi-storey car park.

The fire detection and alarm system installed in the shopping centre was a Honeywell FC90 system, which was closed protocol and had reached the end of its working life. A replacement system was therefore needed to provide a modern supportable system for the shopping centre.

This is a working shopping centre so minimal disruption to the operation of the shopping centre, retailers and shoppers was of paramount importance.
