This British Standard gives recommendations for the provision of security and management services, the provision of manned services (static guarding, mobile patrols, remote monitoring services), physical devices (barriers), electronic systems (alarm and CCTV), and protection by occupation (5.3.2), for the security of vacant properties. NOTE The nature of this provision might vary considerably according to the type and condition of property. Protection may be given by a combination of methods. It is applicable to providers of protection services for vacant properties. Such properties include and are not limited to: public & government [e.g. police, National Health Service (NHS), military barracks, nursing homes]; commercial (warehousing, factories, retail); residential (private & social); construction sites; open land (at risk from travellers); This British Standard is also applicable to the following types of vacancy: prior to first occupancy; refurbishment or redevelopment; following damage (e.g. fire, flood, or criminal activity); temporary unoccupancy (e.g. up to 60 to 90 days); long term unoccupancy; derelict/awaiting demolition; properties requiring additional security measures not those intended to be applied on a permanent basis. This standard does not give recommendations for the execution of maintenance and the physical up-keep of properties.
