Sacha Bürgi, Managing Director of bürgi.com AG, explains why a security check makes sense for companies and private households. Sacha Bürgi What is done during a security check? Whether it’s your own home or a commercial building, there are many dangers, such as break-ins, fire, vandalism or even physical threats.
A building security check includes an inspection of the building’s security measures in order to identify potential sources of danger and security gaps.
This includes checks of doors, windows, alarm systems, smoke detectors and the outside area. Why is a safety check so important? A security check is important to identify and eliminate potential sources of danger in and around the building to ensure the safety of employees or residents.
It helps to minimize risks such as break-ins, fire or threats and provides a higher level of security and peace of mind.
In addition, a regular security check can also help to avoid costly repairs or upgrades in advance, saving money and time. Should a safety check always be carried out? Yes, it is advisable to carry out a security check regularly to ensure that the house is always up to date with the latest security technology.
Based on technological developments in security technology, I would recommend a check every 5 years.
Special events such as renovations, conversions or a change of residence can also be the reason for a new check. How much time should I allow for a safety check? The duration of a security check depends on the size and complexity of the building and the scope of the inspection.
A smaller house can be checked in an hour, while a larger building with several floors and numerous security devices can take longer.
On average, a security check can take between 2 to 4 hours.
However, it is important to note that a thorough check takes time to consider all aspects of security. Who should be present at a security check? In addition to a security expert from Bürgi.com Ag, the owners or security managers should be present so that they can follow the inspection and discuss any necessary changes.
The security expert will provide an expert assessment and recommendations using a checklist to ensure that all areas of the home are checked.
