-the idea that lighting can provide improve protection for people and facilities is as old as the civilization
PROTECTIVE LIGHTING
-is single most cost-effective deterrent to crime because it creates a psychological deterrent to the intruders
PROTECTIVE LIGHTING
-the most common security-lighting system
STATIONARY LUMINARY/ CONTINUOUS LIGHTING
GIVE THE PURPOSE OF SECURITY LIGHTS
a. It improves visibility so that intruders can be seen, identified or apprehended
b. It gives psychological fear which serves as a deterrent to thieves, pilferers, trespassers and saboteurs
c. It makes easier the routine work of a guard in identifying employees, vehicles and etc during nighttime
d. If placed in certain areas, may even reduce the number of stationary guards and instead may require only roving patrols at night
provides sufficient illumination during hours of darkness
PROTECTIVE LIGHTING
4 TYPES OF PROTECTIVE LIGHTING
- STATIONARY LUMINARY/ CONTINUOUS LIGHTING
- STANDBY LIGHTING
- MOVABLE LIGHTING
- EMERGENCY LIGHTING
2 TYPES OF STATIONARY LUMINARY (CONTINUOUS)
a. GLARE PROJECTION TYPE
b. CONTROLLED LIGHTING
- consisting of series of fixed luminaries to flood given area continuously overlap
STATIONARY LUMINARY/ CONTINUOUS LIGHTING
-the intensity is focused to the intruder while the observe or guard remains in the comparative darkness
GLARE PROJECTION TYPE
-the lighting is toward the approach of an entrance to an installation. Lights with reflectors increase this
GLARE PROJECTION TYPE
-the width of the lighted stop can be controlled and adjusted to suit the security needs
CONTROLLED LIGHTING
-the lighting is focused; sag on a file of items rather than on the background.
CONTROLLED LIGHTING
- similar to continuous lighting but turned on manually or by special device or other automatic means when there is suspicion of entry
STANDBY LIGHTING
- stationary or portable manually operated searchlights which maybe lighted continuously during hours of darkness or only as needed and usually supplementary to either to the first 2 types
MOVABLE LIGHTING
4 TYPES OF LIGHTING EQUIPMENT
- FLOODLIGHTS
- SEARCH LIGHTS
- FRESNEL LIGHTS
- STREETLIGHTS
-also is referred to as “crash lighting”
STANDBY LIGHTING
- duplicative of existing lighting system that is utilized in the event of electric failure
EMERGENCY LIGHTING
- project light in a concentrated beam use in boundaries and fences
FLOODLIGHTS
- These are highly focused incandescent lamp used to pinpoint potential trouble spots.
SEARCH LIGHTS
- These are wide beam units, primarily used to extend the illumination in long, horizontal strips to protect the approaches to the perimeter barrier.
FRESNEL LIGHTS
-widely used in parking areas
STREETLIGHTS
-It assists the security in detecting, impeding, or deterring potential security threat in the installation.
PROTECTIVE ALARMS
- It emits aural or visual signals or both.
SENSOR OR TRIGGER DEVICE
