Remote video surveillance and clear image capture are crucial security measures required to monitor and protect business property and assets, and can be instrumental in the investigation and tracking of key scenes, should an incident occur - as was recently demonstrated by the clear images produced during the raid on a Securitas depot in Kent.

Now, video surveillance specialists P&R Fire and Security Ltd will be integrating the Mini-Bold alarm monitoring software from Bold Communications into their alarm receiving centre, to specifically enable P&R to extend their professional monitoring services over IP, in conjunction with video surveillance over IP.

By using the Mini-Bold system and working with Bold Communications - the UK's leading provider of alarm monitoring systems to the security industry, P&R Fire and Security will now deliver integrated IP solutions for fire, intruder and CCTV to their customer base which includes prestigious office complex's, the automotive and manufacturing industries through to major insurance companies.

Paul Bromley, Technical Director at P&R Fire and Security Ltd, said: "As part of our commitment to delivering first class IP alarm signalling solutions we looked at a range of products from other manufactures in the UK, Europe and the US, but chose Mini-Bold for its ease of use and proven reliability.  I believe the Mini-Bold system fits perfectly with the P&R model for combining alarm monitoring services with CCTV and key to this is Bolds' commitment to alarm signalling over IP.

I would not have recommended the purchase of the Mini-Bold system if Bold didn't have an IP vision for the future; we were very impressed with the Mini-Bold team from Bold Communications."

Bold Managing Director, Brian Kelly, commented: "We are always looking for ways to develop our systems in a way which is user-friendly for the operator, while retaining the capability to embrace new technologies like Network alarm signalling and CCTV integration."
