Code 3 Security deployed Reconeyez security solutions to protect a private home, a prestigious 300-acre estate in Sussex, previously owned by the legendary manager of an iconic rock band.
Challenge:
The expansive property features a Grade II-listed 18th-century manor, complete with stables, outbuildings, and tennis courts. As it is a private home, the security solution needed to be sympathetic and unobtrusive, while also acting as a deterrent.
The privately owned estate had faced targeted thefts and trespassers, which highlighted a critical need for advanced surveillance.
Solution deployed:
To meet the estate’s unique security requirements, Code 3 Security implemented a bespoke surveillance system solution featuring custom-built, in-house designed towers, specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with Reconeyez technology. The towers have undergone extensive testing — including wind load calculations — to ensure reliable performance even in the most remote locations and extreme weather conditions.
The towers, which are robust, movable, and discreet, quickly overcame the client’s initial concerns about aesthetics and proved to be a highly valued asset due to their performance and flexibility.
“We’ve invested significantly in designing our towers around Reconeyez technology. We manufacture them in the UK, and they are sturdy, flexible, and specifically adapted for optimal integration,” explains Ella Maguire, Operations Director, Code 3 Security.
Elevating site security with Reconeyez:
Using Reconeyez technology, Code 3 Security provided the client with a tailored, proactive monitoring service that ensured timely responses to incidents, worked closely with stakeholders, maintained client discretion, and offered peace of mind.
“We have our own response unit; we will, of course, liaise with police, and on this project, we work closely with the construction manager or estate manager as needed. The Reconeyez image quality enables us to provide them with the necessary information to take action and relay it back to the client in a sensitive manner. We pride ourselves on offering a very personal approach, tailoring our service to each site and client individually,” shares Ella.
Reconeyez’s HD images, exceptional night vision and AI analysis offered Code 3 Security highly effective threat detection capabilities, accurately identifying faces, number plates, and even clothing details. Added to that, with its 35-metre (115 feet) detection range, Reconeyez’ solution can cover large sites with fewer devices.
“Reconeyez’s cameras allow us to offer unmatched clarity, especially at night. It’s incomparable to other systems. We know that Reconeyez technology helps clients have absolute confidence in our security solutions,” Ella adds.
The success of this deployment underscores Reconeyez’ suitability for protecting historically significant and high-value residential properties, reaffirming its versatility and effectiveness as an advanced security solution.
Adding value and delivering operational efficiency:
With an industry-leading detection range, advanced AI capabilities, and superior image quality, Reconeyez delivers exceptional value by reducing the number of devices needed, resulting in lower capital investment and operational expenses, and a significantly reduced total cost of ownership for both installers and end-users.
“Reconeyez provides excellent value – we have seen the reliability and exceptional quality, and it delivers peace of mind and total satisfaction to clients. We find that once clients have seen what Reconeyez offers, they don’t want to use anything else,” Ella comments.
“As Operations Director, Reconeyez’ cloud platform makes my life easier. I can prevent problems further ahead, and there are no surprises. The hardware can be monitored through the cloud platform, allowing us to forecast when batteries need to be replaced. As a result, there are no last- minute costly engineer trips, as we can anticipate and prevent issues. Because we are operating more efficiently, Reconeyez is delivering cost savings.”
Why Code 3 Security deploys Reconeyez:
Although Code 3 Security is renowned for its expertise in construction site protection, the company also works with a diverse range of clients, including void properties and private homes.
“We have no sales team, and all our work is based on recommendation, word of mouth and long-standing relationships. That is another reason we value working with Reconeyez, we know that it sets us apart, and our clients appreciate the quality images and advanced technology,” concludes Ella.
“We’ve been working with Reconeyez since 2022, and we continue to invest heavily in the hardware driven by demand from clients. In fact, we’re now proactively switching sites out, upgrading long-term clients for free; it’s a commitment from us to our clients.”
