When shops, offices and homes share one building, the security challenge is separation. Customers and staff need easy access to the commercial floors, while residents need their floors, parking and amenities kept private.
Mixed-use is one of the property types in Qyvea's estate & residential security.
Fire detection, alarms and emergency routes have to work for the whole building regardless of who owns which floor. Access-controlled doors on escape routes are designed to release in an emergency.
Qyvea also installs fire alarm systems, so security and life safety are planned together.
Separation is far cheaper to build in than to retrofit. Developers should involve the security integrator at design stage. See security for property developers.
