Facility Manager's Guide to Security (Protecting Your Assets)

Covering everything required to build and manage a security system, Facility Manager's Guide to Security discusses the layout of the facility in order to provide security for workers, plants, processes, and products. It covers distances and separation, fencing, access control, intrusion detection systems, pass key, key control systems, locks, hasps, gates, and the more sophisticated systems such as closed circuit television, microwave transmitters, lasers, lighting, clear zone, and computer systems and control electronic systems. The book helps readers manage the security personnel, guards, guard dogs, rounds shift work, training, procedure development, and other non-hardware elements of a security program.
