Daytime Security for Museum Collections

Plenty of museum thefts happen when the building is open and the intruder alarm is off. Xtra-Sense display alarms are built for exactly those hours.

The Xtra-Sense display alarm range is a patented system built to stop theft and damage to valuable items on show. It senses very small changes in weight on a display surface and raises the alarm the moment an object is moved or removed. No tethers, no chains, no cables running to the object.

Major museums hold collections that are irreplaceable and on open display to thousands of visitors a day. Security has to work during opening hours without getting in the way of the visitor experience or the curators.

The alarm can also trigger the wider security set-up, such as CCTV cameras, voice messages, pagers or lighting, through hard wiring or common wireless transmission systems. Small site or big site, it slots in.

Every site is different, and Xtra-Sense will only recommend a product if it genuinely fits the job. Get in touch on 01404 43366 or at security@xtra-sense.co.uk.
