Security at a large medical practice

The increasing number of false alarms issued by the old wired alarm system - which used motion detectors to monitor just the interior of their large practice in Hamburg - prompted the medical team to install a new danger detection system. They chose a wireless system because of the great flexibility this provides. Following extensive measurement of the two-storey practice, the team decided to install the Secvest 2WAY system from ABUS. The easy-to-use codechip system won over the doctors and staff at the practice.
