Planning Protections
Inside of the door leaf as close as possible to the lock mechanism or to the hinges.
The Armored Cable kit SC114 should be used when mounting detector on/in the door and
preferably also a magnetic contact should be added on the door. Cable outlet facilities are
normally provided in new safes. If not, mount the detectors on the outside.
Detectors mounted outside
Outside of the safe, we recommend mounting one detector:
On the side of the safe, close to the hinge
And the other detector can be mounted on the door in three different ways:
Close to the hinge, providing a short distance with the Armored Cable Kit SC114.
Close lose to the lock, mounted on the Keyhole Protection Kit SC112.
In such way that the cable prevents opening the door when the detector is on the night
position plate, mounted with the Movable Mounting Kit SC111.
Figure 5-7 Detectors mounted on the Outside of the Safe
Detectors are better protected when mounted inside, and detectors mounted outside will have a
deterring effect.
The Movable Mounting Kit SC111 and the Keyhole Protection Kit SC112 have the advantage of
forcing the staff to handle the alarm installation properly. It prevents the staff forgetting to remove
keys or properly closing the safe doors as well as blocking the keyhole from loading with
explosives.
Filing Cabinets
Our recommendation is to mount the detector as close as possible to the lock mechanism on one
side of the cabinet. The Movable Mounting Kit SC111 can also be mounted on a drawer that has
a higher security solution. See
Figure 5-9 Planning Document Cabinet Protection
for reference.
Figure 5-8 Planning Filing Cabinets Protection
Document Cabinets
For document cabinets we recommend to mount the detector inside or outside the top surface at
the front part close to or between where the door bolts is coming up.
Also here a Movable Mounting Kit SC111 of the detector on the door is possible where a high
security solution is requested.
