We\u2019ve discussed the benefits of technology many times on this blog: alarm systems and CCTV cameras are needed to warn security personnel when a prospective intruder is approaching. At the same time, electric fencing can be used as a powerful deterrent. However, while technology has revolutionised the way <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/perimeter-security-combats-boiler-thefts\/\" title=\"Perimeter security combats boiler thefts\">security perimeters<\/a> operate, it also has one fairly substantial disadvantage. If a piece of technology stops working, it can undermine your entire <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/products\/perimeter-fencing\/\"  title=\"perimeter\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">perimeter<\/a>. Here at Zaun, we care about ensuring your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/impregnable-perimeter\/\" title=\"Creating an impregnable perimeter\">perimeter is always impregnable<\/a>. As a result, we\u2019ve created a list of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/wimbledon-2021\/\" title=\"What security tips can you take from Wimbledon 2021 into your own tennis courts?\">tips for ensuring that your security<\/a> technology doesn\u2019t fail and leave your perimeter vulnerable.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Ensure cables are well-protected<\/h2>\n<p>The wires and cables that connect CCTV cameras and alarms to power sources can be vulnerable to wear-and-tear. If a wire or cable breaks, the technology that depends on it will obviously stop working. We, therefore, recommend ensuring that any external wires and cables are well-insulated and well-protected with thick rubber or plastic.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Put redundancy systems in place<\/h2>\n<p>Here at <a data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" data-wpil=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/\">Zaun<\/a>, we pride ourselves on the durability of our security technology. However, if a CCTV camera or alarm does break down, it\u2019s important to ensure that it won\u2019t leave a gap in your defences. This is easily achieved. Ensure that you have two or more CCTV cameras or alarms covering each <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/selecting-perimeter-fencing\/\" title=\"Points to consider when selecting perimeter fencing\">point on your perimeter<\/a>. Even if one fails, every part of your perimeter will still be covered.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Carry out regular maintenance<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps the simplest way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/bicycle-lockers\/\" title=\"Bicycle lockers &#8211; secure locking systems that prevent theft\">prevent technological failures is to regularly check your electronic security<\/a> measures for damage and carry out necessary maintenance. This can dramatically extend the lifespan of your electronic security measures and prevent them from failing at inopportune moments.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Don\u2019t rely completely on technology<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/products\/security-mesh-fencing\/\">Security fencing<\/a>, fence toppings and other non-electronic perimeter defences are just as important as security technology. It\u2019s important not to rely completely on electronic solutions &#8211; remember to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/cutting-edge-security\/\" title=\"Keeping your cash with cutting-edge security\">keep your non-technological security<\/a> features well-maintained. This will ensure your perimeter is never undefended, even in the event of technological failure.<\/p>\n<p>Technology is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/port-security\/\" title=\"Port security: Why is it so vital?\">vital to modern security<\/a> perimeters. By following the tips we\u2019ve provided in today\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blogs\/blog-archive\/\" title=\"Blog Archive\">blog<\/a> entry, you can make sure yours doesn\u2019t let you down.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for high tech perimeters? <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/contact-us\/\"  title=\"Contact\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">Contact<\/a> Zaun today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technology is an integral part of any modern security perimeter.
