Security Design for Multi-purpose Building
Federal Government, Washington, D.C.
Client REQUEST
The project required creating a design/build team for emergency call boxes and video surveillance for a two-story multi-use building. The devices will be located both inside and on the exterior of the building.
SOLUTION
Theseus worked with the integrator to properly prepare the building for camera installation due to the reinforced nature of the building. Custom parapet mount design and fabrication was undertaken to allow for the unique installation requirements of the exterior cameras.
Emergency intercom boxes were installed with security cameras in them. Locker rooms and other similar areas required a re-design of the intercom boxes to ensure privacy.
