Layering Security for High Net Worth Homes

Ensuring that high net worth homes are effectively secured whether occupied or not can seem like a headache – there are often numerous factors to take into account, including securing the main property, garages, outbuildings and any items in gardens too.

It’s often the case that many of the security providers you may find after a quick Google search can’t quite offer the bespoke package of security that you need for a high net worth home.

Tailored, multi-layered security solutions are the answer and choosing a reputable, specialist security provider who knows their stuff is absolutely vital. But how can you ensure that you’ve found the right company?

Here’s our handy guide to things to look out for when it comes to choosing a security company to protect your high net worth home:

• Referrals from your connections. It can be incredibly helpful to ask your friends and family who they may use to secure their high net worth homes. However, a word of warning – everyone’s high net worth property is different and whilst one company may suit one high net worth property, it may not suit yours. You should also research your own security companies too.
• Layered security solutions. Any security package needs to be multi-layered and integrated seamlessly into the design of your property. High net worth properties will likely need a myriad of security technology and so it’s really important that any security company you may commission are able to discreetly install effective yet appropriate systems to retain a homely feel and not take away from the beauty of the space you have created.
• Monitored security. Security providers for high net worth properties need to ensure that they can offer 24/7 alarm monitoring. This type of security monitoring offers not only peace of mind at all times to the owner, but means that the security provider can cover all bases when it comes to apprehending developing threats to the property.
• Security Audit. Ensure that the security provider completes a full security audit on your high net worth property before any suggestions are made on the security systems and technology that may be required to protect it. A layered and bespoke approach is often required when it comes to securing these types of private estates and and large executive properties owing to the different number of buildings and equipment that may need to be secured individually.

Basic security requirements will not be appropriate when it comes to securing a high net worth property, so state of the art security technology is a must. Check out whether any potential security provider can offer things like advanced CCTV systems, perimeter alarms, intrusion detection, access control systems and smart home security technology.
