Alchemy Metals has invested in
monitored CCTV and intruder
detection solutions from Secom as
part of the upgrade needed to
adequately protect high-value and
‘sensitive’ metal scrap its new
Stevenage site.

CCTV cameras continuously
watch the site perimeter and
building interiors, instantly alerting
operators at Secom’s Alarm
Receiving Centre (ARC) if there is
movement on site after hours. The
intruder detection system –
including acoustic sensor cables and
PIR sensors – provides additional
protection. The Secom systems
operate alongside biometric access
controls and high-security perimeter
fencing.
