Disclaimer:
The services of an independent, experienced, qualified and certified Security Crime Prevention/ CPTED Consultant are highly recommended for objective and credible security review integrity.
This review does not guarantee a crime will never occur; it is an effort to mitigate opportunities for crime and to help avoid any present and future security deficiencies, conflicts, or liabilities that might occur without any review.
CPTED Landscaping Standards
a. Ensure to design out all landscaping and lighting conflicts to avoid existing or future obstructions to Natural or Electronic Surveillance.
b. Ensure to design out existing or potential concealment/ ambush points to deter/ prevent criminal activity.
c. Maintain 2’ to 2.5’ foot maximum height for all hedges, bushes, low plants and ground cover.
d. Maintain an 8'' foot clear trunk without any obstructive limbs or foliage hanging down for canopy trees and tall plants that obstruct Natural &/ or Electronic Surveillance.
e. Note that young immature trees with 6” inch or less diameter trunks are excluded from this condition per code.
CPTED Lighting Standards
4. Doors, Windows, Overhangs, Fences, Etc. - Security Strengthening, Natural Surveillance and Access Control
a. Install either reinforced security see through glass hurricane doors, a see-through reinforced security window on a solid door, an audible/ video intercom pager, or at the minimum a 180 degree wide angle door viewer (peephole) on all solid exterior doors including garage, service doors, etc., to provide opportunity to monitor and surveil exterior and also to avoid being ambushed upon exiting. This also provides an opportunity to visually identify and screen visitors in the event of an attempted criminal ruse entry.
b. Any existing or future fencing anywhere on the site should be CPTED oriented such as metal railing ‘see-through’ to maintain critical Natural Surveillance.
c. Fences should limit or not have easily accessible horizontal bars that could be used for climbing and breaching any security fencing. Use narrow spacing between vertical bars to prevent footholds.
d. Do not block the Natural Surveillance benefit of ‘see-through’ fencing by placing high obstructive objects, landscaping hedges or groundcover placed on either side of it. Any landscaping in front of fencing should be low ground cover with a maximum height of 2’ to 2.5’ feet, preferably use harsh Territorial Reinforcement type landscaping to strengthen the fence perimeter Access Control barrier.
Burglar Alarms/ Security Alarms/ Safes - Mechanical Security Strengthening
a. Burglar/ Security Alarms/ Safes must be installed at any property including commercial and management offices, or wherever valuables of any kind such as money, jewelry, costly inventory, etc., including potentially sensitive or personal or business identification documents, electronic files or financial information is stored. Alarms must be activated whenever businesses are closed or all personnel are out of the building offices.
Parking Garage & Lot, and Adjacent Access Perimeters:
a. Parking lots have one of the highest crime rates therefore the following facts must be thoroughly acknowledged and addressed:
b. parking lot Access Control systems to avoid allowing non-legitimate unauthorized users and dangerous trespassers from breaching inside private property to burglarize, steal cars, commit robberies, sexual assaults & batteries, etc.
c. Vehicles have been burglarized in parking lots leading to significant property loss and the theft of personal identification which has resulted in identity theft fraud, therefore no security surveillance camera coverage gaps can exist (see Electronic Surveillance Section).
d. Violent Robbery incidents, primarily in parking lots, have resulted in serious personal injuries and death to both residents, guests, customers and employees, therefore no security surveillance camera coverage gaps can exist.
e. Ensure comprehensive parking lot area and storage yard surveillance camera coverage/ capture
f. . Show overlapping sight “cones”.
g. An Access Control vehicular gate entrance into the parking will deter and help prevent trespass opportunities. These entrances must be under video surveillance.
.
Electronic Surveillance - Security Strengthening
a. Ensure electronic surveillance cameras and monitors are strategically located for maximum active and passive observation. Show sight “cones” indicating comprehensive coverage.
b. Ensure all cameras are strategically placed so they will not be obstructed by the growth of existing or installation of future landscaping.
c. Ensure lighting placement will enhance rather than conflict with camera placement. Avoid placing a light that would concentrate light directly into a camera lens thereby causing interference in operational efficiency.
d. Security cameras must fully view all parking areas, building entrances and pedestrian paths of travel along the building perimeters.
e. Install motion activated security cameras on the perimeter boundaries, and the parking areas and storage areas, and activity areas such as exterior amenity areas.
f. Install video surveillance along the exterior of the property facing the adjacent sidewalks and streets to deter criminal activities such as burglary, auto-theft, robbery, sexual assault & battery, etc.
g. Security cameras must overlapping Show sight “cones”.
