VRC foils 6 attempted robberies for national Storage Facility provider
Over the past 2 months, VRC has demonstrated it’s effectiveness by successfully foiling 6 attempted burglaries across the national estate of a major Storage Facility provider. Unmanned Storage Facilities represent a key target for unscrupulous individuals and gangs, presenting them with what can appear to be a defenceless opportunity.
All attempted robberies were carried out between 2am and 3am, by groups of between 2 and 4 individuals approaching the site on foot. On each occasion the intruders approach to the premises signalled VRC, activating the extensive installed CCTV systems and alerting our Monitoring Operators to their presence.
Once the trespassers intrusion was confirmed, the Police were notified and deployed to the site. To avoid further intrusion and criminal damage, our Monitoring Operators simultaneously issued a live, audio deterrent warning to the intruders, using the integrated Public Address system and personally identifying them by a description of their appearance.
The live audio warning proved sufficient and on each occasion the intruders withdrew, without causing any damage to the site. Following each incident full details, including copies of the recordings were passed to the appropriate Police Authorities - investigations are ongoing.
Every night VRC monitors thousands of premises across the UK, securing sites from residential homes to vast, multi site warehouses. Any sites can benefit from professional CCTV monitoring.
