Designing an entrance for a retail environment brings with it many challenges, mostly to do with aesthetics and the ability to draw a customer into the store. One challenge that often plagues retail designers is the incompatibility of aluminium entrance matting systems and underfloor, hidden security tagging systems. This incompatibility often leads to false alarms or perhaps more worryingly, an alarm not going off at all in the event of an attempted theft.
This may mean a designer sometimes having to compromise on aesthetics to ensure the right level of security for the store, forcing them to use a pedestal system, rather than an invisible underfloor system.
This is no longer the case. After a series of collaborative tests Construction Specialties and Intrepid Security have a solution. Combining CS Pediluxe, a 17mm aluminium matting system with a specially designed under floor security system creates a compatible and reliable solution, verified by thorough site tests.
The Entrance Matting System – CS Pediluxe®
CS Pediluxe, only available from Construction Specialties, is a versatile, 17mm deep aluminium entrance matting system that combines rugged construction with a luxury feel underfoot. With a range of tread inserts and an exceptional load bearing capability Pediluxe really is the ultimate entrance mat for retail environments.
The Security System – WG Floorguard
Supplied by Intrepid Security Solutions
The WG Floorguard, available only from Intrepid Security, allows Retailers to deploy a fully functional security system hidden under floor, without the need for security pedestals. Whilst other under floor tagging systems require the floor to be dug up to allow the system to be buried in the floor, Intrepid Security’s WG solution, uniquely allows the system to be installed within the matwell itself, with CS Pediluxe installed over the top, with minimal digging, mess and disruption to the store during installation and also for system maintenance.
With the combination of CS Pediluxe and Intrepid Security’s tagging system, designers can now confidently design in an invisible tagging system without compromise or the worry of false alarms & security failures.
