Magal Awarded to Patrol West African Seaport

Magal Security Systems, has received a US$2.6 million order for an integrated solution to secure a seaport in West Africa. This is the second order received within the past few weeks for a port security solution in the region.

Magal will deliver an integrated solution including a variety of security systems, including DTR taut wire which will be deployed on a wall running several kilometers along the coastline, gates and access control, radio communications, static and PTZ cameras.

All sensors and communications will be networked to two command and control centers through Magal’s physical security information management (PSIM) system. The system will also integrate technologies such as cooled thermal sensors and a remote acoustic hailing device. The contract is expected to be completed during 2011.
