The specialist Perimeter Protection division of FBS Hörmann have recently completed a project to help secure a business park in Guildford, fitting a range of high security gates and fencing. The business park, which is home to various businesses and warehousing facilities, had been suffering from anti-social behaviour and increasing criminal activity during out of hours and were looking for a more robust and long-lasting solution to their problems. FBS Hörmann were able to provide a full-service solution from initial consultation, surveying, product specification and installation through to the final sign off, together with coordinating with other security contractors working on the project. The project also fell under Construction Design Management where FBSH Hormann acted as principal contractor for the whole project, managing other security contractors throughout the project.

Existing security at the site was fairly light, with very little fencing. Replacing rising bollards, the primary entrance to the site has now been fitted with two automated FBS6000 high security swing gates, GMS intercom entry for out of hours access, auto exit, and a new pedestrian gate. The secondary entrance has seen the existing rising barrier replaced with a robust cantilevered sliding gate and a pedestrian gate. A total of 86m of security fencing has also secured the perimeter. The gates and fencing have all been finished in RAL 6005 Moss green to blend with the semi-rural location of the site.

The FBS Hormann team completed the installation in under 4 weeks, with the project including all of the necessary civil works for the gate and fencing installation. The company also worked with a specialist security CCTV company to provide civil engineering needs for a number of CCTV towers situated throughout the site.

Commenting on the installation, Thomas Kirk, Head of Perimeter Protection at FBS Hörmann: “The owners and facilities management of this site asked us to look at upgrading security during a pre-planned maintenance visit made by one of our service engineers. Our technical sales team then attended to discuss the site’s requirements and problems they were having with the current equipment in place, we then specified the exact products needed to meet the site’s requirements.

“Having access to a wide range of Perimeter systems, including bollards, barriers, gates, and fencing, meant we were able to specify a solution to meet their very specific requirements. We were also able to offer the assurance that all of the installation team were fully trained and qualified, and employed by FBS Hörmann.

This project has been a great success, illustrating how our teams and disciplines work together to ensure deadlines and customer satisfaction was upheld throughout the project. Well done team!”
