About Perimeter Security

Perimeter security equipment is installed by security service providers or security companies. These companies install security gates, perimeter fences, perimeter sensors, perimeter security sensors and perimeter motion detectors. Some popular types of perimeter security sensors are buried line sensor, ported cable sensor, fibre optic cable sensor, fence associated sensor and taut wire sensor. There are four types of buried wire sensors which are pressure system sensor, magnetic field sensor, ported coaxial cable sensor and fibre optic sensor. A pressure perimeter sensor responds to any form of disturbance in the soil. It can detect intruders walking jumping or crawling n the ground as these sensors are highly sensitive to low-frequency pressure waves.

Magnetic field sensors are also known as seismic sensors; they comprise of a coil conducting magnet that is known as geophones which are fixed to a point. These sensors respond to any type of changes in the local magnetic field which is caused due to the movement of metallic material. Magnetic field sensors also detect weapons as they can detect magnetic or metallic devices. They come with a series of wire loops which are buried in the ground which get activated due to electromagnetic disturbances. Ported coaxial cables are also known as leaky coaxial cables which are equipped with radiating cable sensors which get activated due to human movement or metal vehicles. Fibre optic cable sensors are made up of long strands of transparent glass or plastic. These sensors are attached to perimeter security walls and perimeter fences.

Perimeter security equipment suppliers distribute fence associated sensors which can be attached or mounted on fences. These sensors are mainly attached to security fences which are constructed with a chain link mesh. They consist of transducers which detect motion and shock from any part of the premise. Fence disturbance sensors react to all kinds of mechanical disturbance noises such as wind, debris, rain and outside traffic activity. Taut wire sensors are high in tensile strength and are connected to transducers and are less prone to nuisance alarms. Freestanding sensors are special perimeter security equipment which is used in external perimeter detection systems. Video motion detectors are equipped with an existing closed-circuit television cameras that detect a change in the surrounding area. Microwave perimeter sensors use transmitters and receivers which operate in the microwave range. There are two types of microwave sensors which are the mono static sensor and bi-static sensor; the monostatic sensor functions by combining the transmitter and receiver in a single dual function unit. The bi-static sensor comes with a receiver with a dual function unit which is monostatic and bi-static in nature. It uses two separate units where one is the receiver and one is for the storage space.

A perimeter fence is a structure which is constructed around external boundaries of the property. It is very sturdy in nature and can be designed in different ways. Perimeter security suppliers also help you set up surveillance systems, access control systems and conduct regular inspection and perform periodic maintenance operations on them. Some popular locations to get in touch with companies which design and distribute perimeter security equipment in the UAE are Dubai maritime, RAK bank building, Khalidiya, Opposite Emirates driving school, Ras Al Khor, Al Aweer, Al Shirawi building, Airport road and Al Khaleej.
