Shortridge Laundry was relying on an old analogue CCTV monitoring system that suffered from poor image quality, blind spots, and no real‑time monitoring. They also dealt with multiple different security suppliers, which complicated their security management.
Securitas replaced the outdated system with a fully integrated, modern security system under a single contract. This included upgraded CCTV coverage and remote alarm monitoring from our operations centre (SOC) by our NSI Gold-accredited team, as well as access control and verified response services delivered by SIA-licensed security professionals.
As a result, Shortridge Laundry gained improved surveillance coverage, faster and more reliable response to alarms, and no longer had to coordinate between several suppliers, just one streamlined security provider. They also avoided high upfront costs thanks to a flexible payment model spread over three years.

When a CCTV or intruder alarm is triggered, the signal is sent directly to our Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). Trained operators assess the alert using advanced software that filters out false alarms, presenting only genuine activity involving people or vehicles. The operator can then escalate the situation by alerting keyholders, onsite guards, or the police as appropriate.
Yes. Subject to the correct CCTV system and site accreditation, operators can use speakers built into cameras to issue warnings to intruders, remotely operate gates and barriers for legitimate visitors, and monitor high-risk areas. This allows immediate and controlled responses to incidents, reducing risk and protecting assets.
Absolutely. Our ARCs are in-house, fully secure, high-resilience environments, operating 24/7, 365 days a year. All operators are SIA licensed, and our Alarm Receiving Centres hold NSI Gold accreditation, ensuring the highest standards in alarm handling and rapid access to emergency services when needed.
When an alarm is triggered, our team does a thorough check of the entire CCTV system to ensure there is no potential threat. If there isn't, we record the incident and any CCTV footage from that time and continue to carefully monitor your site.
