PART 3
MAGNETIC DOOR CONTACT - It is a protective device usually placed
in the door, and window that can send notification when the opening and
closure occurs

PASSIVE INFRARED DETECTOR (PIR) OR MOTION SENSOR - PIRs

are able to distinguish if an infrared emitting object is present by first
learning the ambient temperature of the monitored space and then
detecting a change in the temperature caused by the presence of an
object.
TYPES OF BANK ALARMS

FOOT RAIL ACTIVATOR - They are place on the floor in such a

position that tellers may activate the alarm by placing the front of their
foot engage the activation bar.

BILL TRAPS
o It is also known as Currency Activation devices which are usually
place in the tellers top cash drawer and connected to the alarm
system using a wire connector
o When currency is removed from the devices, the alarm is
activated.

KNEE OR THIGH BUTTONS

o It is installed inside thedeck or teller station so they can be
activated by knee or thigh pressure.
o They are commonly found in location where personnel usually
perform their duties from a seated position.

FOOT BUTTON - Like the foot rails it permits alarm activation in

relatively safety while both hands remain clearin view of the robbers.
DOUBLE SQUEEZE BUTTON - It requires pressure on both side of the
device and therefore the probability of accidental alarm is reduced.

TYPES OF PROTECTIVE ALARM SYSTEM

CENTRAL STATION SYSTEM

o A type of protective alarm where the central station located
outside the installation.
o It can be located in agency and the installation is one of the
subscribers.
o When alarm is sounded, central station notifies police and other
agency.
o A system in which the alarm signal is relayed to remote panel
located at the facilities of private owned protection Service
Company manned by its personnel.

PROPRIETARY SYSTEM
o It is the same as the central station system except that it is owned
by, operated and located in the facility
o It is located inside the industrial firm itself with a duty operator.
o Response to all alarms is by facility’s own security or fire
personnel, since this system is monitored locally, the response
time to an alarm is reduced.

AUXILIARY SYSTEM - In this system installation circuits are led into

local police or fire department by lease telephone line

LOCAL ALARM BY CHANCE SYSTEM

 o This is a local alarm in which a siren or bell is sounded with no
predicable Response.
o These systems are used in residence or small establishment
which cannot afford a respond system.
o The hope is that a neighbour or passing patrol car will reach the
alarm and call for police assistance.

DIAL ALARM SYSTEM

o This system is set to dial a predetermined number when the alarm
is activated. The numbers selected might be the police station or
others.
o When the phone is answered, a recording state that an intrusion
is in progress atthe location alarmed.

PROTECTIVE LOCKS
o Locks are one of the most widely used physical security devices in
the protection of facilities and activities, personnel and
information, and government, business and personal property.
o Locking Device is simply mechanism that extends the door and
window into the wall that hold them. If therefore, the wall or the
door itself is weak or easily destructible, the lock is not effective.

LOCK- A mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, or electronic device designed

to prevent entry into building, room, container or hiding place, and to
prevent the removal of items without the consent of the owner.

PADLOCK- A portable and detachable lock having or sliding hasp which

passes through a staple ring or the like and is then made fast or
secured.

PETERMAN- A term used in England for lock picker, safecrackers, and

penetrators of restricted areas or room.
TYPES OF LOCKS
WARDED LOCKS
o The underlying principle is incorporation of wards or obstructions
inside the lock to prohibit a key from operating the bolt unless the
key has corresponding notches cut in it that it will pass the wards.
o It offers very little security, this type of lock must therefore be used
only to have privacy, but not to provide degree of security.

DISC TUMBLER LOCKS

o Also known as wafer tumbler type, has flat metal tumblers with
open center fitted into lock case
o It is commonly designed for automobile industry and is in general
use in car doors today because this lock is easy and cheap to
manufactured
o The delay afforded is between 7 to 10 minutes.

LEVER LOCK
o This lock is used in safe deposit boxes and is for all purposes.
o The least of this lock are used in desks, lockers and cabinets and
are generally less secure than pin tumbler lock.

PIN TUMBLER LOCK - The pin tumbler mechanism depends for its
security, on a number of round pin or tumblers operating on a cylinder.

COMBINATION LOCKS
o A lock that requires manipulation of dials according to a
predetermined combination code of numbers or letters
o Most of these locks have three dials but some locks have four dials
for greater security.
CODE-OPERATED LOCKS
o They are open by pressing a series of numbered buttons in the
proper sequence.
o Some of them are equipped of alarm if wrong sequence is
pressed. These are high security locking device

CARD-OPERATED LOCKS
o Coded card notched, embossed or containing an embedded
pattern of copper flocks.
o These are frequently fitted with a recording device which register
time and identify the user.

KEY CONTROL- is the management of keys in a plant or business

organization to prevent unauthorized individual access to the keys.

MAISON KEY SYSTEM - keying system that permits a lock to be

opened with a number of unique, individual keys. Maison key systems
are often found in apartment building common areas, such as main
entrance or a laundry room where individual residents can use their own
apartment key to access these areas.
