Wisenet cameras have been entrusted to help protect Shrewsbury Town Football Club’s upgraded training facilities. The high flying Sky Bet League club has invested heavily in its training complex, including the provision of computer-based analyzing equipment and on-site catering facilities and required a high performance video surveillance system which enables activity at the new facility to be monitored 24/7.
Shrewsbury Town Football Club have defied the odds at the start of the 2017-18 football campaign by being well and truly amongst the pace setters with a quarter of the season already gone.
No doubt there are many reasons for the turnaround in fortunes from what was a dramatic end to last season, with the town finishing near the bottom, to being on the crest of a wave this season. One of them could be down to the complete refurbishment of the Club’s Sundorne training facility on the outskirts of the town. The Football Club have invested heavily in ensuring that the quality of the training pitches is equal to the match day playing surface at the Montgomery Waters Meadow stadium. The players, coaching and fitness staff are also benefiting from the computer-based analyzing equipment and on-site catering facilities within the complex.
Needless to say, the new training complex required a security system to protect the Club’s investment. One level of security was to install a video surveillance system to monitor the site. Shrewsbury Town’s chief executive Brian Caldwell approached one of the Club’s main sponsors, Pro-Vision Distribution, for assistance. Being a national distributor of video surveillance, Access Control and Public Address equipment, Pro-Vision were ideally placed to advise the Club. Following a site visit from local installation company K.J Electronics Systems, who specialize in video surveillance, perimeter protection and intruder alarms, the new surveillance equipment was installed. Based on the Wisenet brand, the agreed specification included 4 x vandal-resistant, true day/night dome cameras, a high definition external bullet camera and a pan/tilt/zoom camera with all recorded data stored on a network video recorder. The true day/night specification ensures that all cameras are able to view images 24/7 irrespective of the amount of natural daylight present and the recorder accommodates any additional cameras that may be required in due course. Any alarm activation event is sent to a central monitoring station via a secured connection.
The town’s latest asset – their new training facility – now has awarding-winning security equipment to protect the Club’s investment.
