Plaza Del Rey Security Enhancement by Sherlock Surveillance

The Challenge

Plaza Del Ray, a sprawling residential community, faced several security challenges that needed urgent attention:

Safety and Security for Residents: Residents expressed concerns about safety, especially during late hours. They wanted a system that would make them feel secure within their homes and common areas.

Illegal Dumping and Unauthorized Access: The community struggled with illegal dumping of trash and debris. Additionally, unauthorized vehicles entered the premises, posing risks to residents and property.

License Plate Monitoring: Plaza Del Rey needed a reliable way to monitor vehicle license plates at entry and exit points.

Large Multi-Acre Site: The community covered a vast area, including undulating terrain, numerous homes, and dense tree cover.

Integration and Unobtrusiveness: The solution had to integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure and be unobtrusive to residents while acting as a deterrent to potential wrongdoers.

The Solution
Sherlock Surveillance designed a comprehensive security system tailored to Plaza Del Rey’s unique needs:

Hybrid Camera Network:

• Deployed a network of 108 cameras strategically placed across the community.
  
  

• Included 15 License Plate Recognition (LPC) cameras at key entry and exit points.
  
  

• Cameras covered common areas, pathways, parking lots, and perimeter zones.

Terrain Adaptability:

• Customized camera placement to account for undulating landscape and tree cover.
  
  

• Used high-resolution cameras with night vision capabilities to ensure visibility in all conditions.

Wireless Access Points (WAPs):

• Installed 50 WAPs to create a robust secure wireless network.

• Enabled real-time data transmission from cameras to the central monitoring system.

License Plate Recognition (LPR):

• Integrated LPR cameras with the community’s database of authorized vehicles.
  
  

• Instantly flagged any unrecognized license plates for further investigation.

RFID System:

• Implemented RFID tags for authorized residents’ vehicles.
  
  

• Automated gate access based on RFID authentication.

Central Monitoring Center:

• Established a 24/7 central monitoring center staffed by trained personnel.
  
  

• Monitored live camera feeds, license plate data, and alarms.

Unobtrusive Design:

• Concealed cameras within discreet housings to blend seamlessly with the environment.
  
  

• Ensured minimal impact on residents’ daily lives.
