Where property and retail feel the pain

Backup power in commercial property and retail has a particular shape: loads are scattered across many points, and most of them tie directly to security and revenue. When the power goes, the first failures are usually access control losing the entrances and exits, CCTV leaving security blind spots, POS and tills stopping trade, and lifts and fire-related equipment dropping into a fault state.

The scenarios we handle most

Lobby and car-park access control and barrier systems
CCTV control desks and recording units
POS systems and electronic shelf labels
Computers and communications equipment in the management office
Car-park payment and sensor systems

Practical considerations when sizing

Distributed small UPS units — loads at property and retail points are usually small but spread out. Rather than one large machine, a small UPS at each key point is more reliable and limits the impact of any single failure.
Discreet, safe mounting — positions have to suit the fit-out and public-safety requirements, with equipment kept out of sight.
Maintenance without disruption — battery replacement and servicing scheduled outside trading hours.
Unified multi-site management — for sites with many points, a register and replacement schedule so no individual point is forgotten until its battery fails.

Who we work with

Commercial buildings and property management companies, malls, retail chains, supermarkets and convenience stores, food and beverage premises, car-park operators, hotels and serviced apartments.
