Case Study

Protecting a new build warehouse with RapidCam

In this case study, we look at how we secured a new build warehouse based in Leicester, UK.

This case was managed by Vigilance, who became part of the Orbis group of companies in 2024.

Meeting our customers’ needs

Faced with the challenges of mitigating risks such as aggravated trespass, theft, and traveller encampment during a void period, Vigilance was tasked with devising a security strategy that not only addressed these concerns but also adhered to the client’s strict budgetary constraints.

Through a combination of technology-driven solutions and strategic planning, Vigilance delivered a robust security system that ensured the safety of the warehouse while facilitating easy access for agents and prospective tenants.

Understanding the gravity of the situation and the need for a meticulous approach, Vigilance were commissioned to craft a security solution that would effectively safeguard the premises.

The challenge was twofold: not only did the solution have to be effective in mitigating the identified risks, but it also had to be cost-effective, keeping in line with the client’s budgetary limitations.
