Revisiting Poppies in St Helens to Install IP CCTV Cameras in two additional units

Forklift in warehouse

Background:

Last year we visited Poppies Europe Ltd to upgrade their Fire Alarm System, adding over 300 heat/smoke detection devices in the first phase, which took 6 weeks to complete. Impressed by our previous work, Poppies’ asked us to return to install CCTV cameras to provide coverage of two units.

The requirements: CCTV coverage of a number of areas including Vehicle tracking

To upgrade their on-site security, Poppies’ requested a solution that provided CCTV coverage of:
• manufacturing areas
• warehouse areas
• walkways
• external areas

They needed a CCTV System that would monitor all of their operational machinery, and a number of internal and external areas, allowing them to monitor staff downtime, stock and safety.

The solution: An extensive IP CCTV System Including Vehicle Recognition

Our Engineers visited the site to install:

  • 62 cameras in the first unit
  • 32 cameras in the second unit
  • 16 external cameras which included 4 auto track PTZ (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) cameras
    • 2 ANPR cameras monitoring access points to the property
    • 10 static cameras linked with 16 external detectors (GJD) with 30-40-100 meter detection ranges
    • External Tannoy System.

These cameras are also remotely monitored by PSM, a remote monitoring specialist based in Wigan, to provide out of hours protection.
