Lead Theft & Historic Buildings

***Tag Systems has developed a bespoke solution with a wireless security system purpose-designed to combat the lead theft crime wave***. The system comprises a detection cable which is secured to leaded areas with a weather resistant, externally rated adhesive. Each zone, typically between 50 and 100 metres in length, terminates in a small wireless transmitter that sends its signals to a base station installed inside the church or any other building to be protected. Should any part of the cable be broken or tampered with, which would occur if a thief attempted to remove the lead, it would activate the ‘TagAlarm’ system inside the building. Tag Systems own central monitoring station, which is manned 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, monitors all alarm activity within seconds. There an operator can see from the computer screen the location of the building and even the exact area on the roof which is being attacked.
