Complete perimeter protection concepts for stadiums are becoming increasingly important. Their implementation is particularly demanding. At the different stages of the event the security situation around a larger sporting facility is continually changing. The sheer number of fans, e.g. at major league matches, makes it difficult to identify and avert threats. To achieve a high level of stadium security while not restricting the enjoyment of the event, your protection concept needs to be as holistic as it is effective.
In addition to the regularly high number of visitors, other security-relevant circumstances should also be considered: How is traffic routed to and around the stadium? What special building security regulations apply locally? In the case of a popular sporting event, is there a risk of conflict between opposing fans? resulting in acts of hooliganism? Under these circumstances media coverage is high and your reputation as a stadium operator is at stake too. Under such circumstances, in addition to stadium security, due to extensive media presence, your reputation as a stadium operator is at stake, too.
The perimeter protection of stadiums must be designed to ensure security, regulation compliance, and control. Stadium control and monitoring is an enormous challenge for police and trained security forces managing heavy volume of traffic and the large streams of visitors. Security technology and other critical infrastructure systems should interlock seamlessly at all times to prevent panic, riots, vandalism and overcrowding in a stadium. In exceptional situations, e.g. a fire hazard caused by illegal pyrotechnics, perimeter security must allow for rapid evacuation at all times.
Certain groups of people, such as hooligans and violent fan groups, often coordinate their ‘line-up’ against stewards and security in advance of an event. Therefore, a shortened response time through smart technical solutions is essential. In recent years, it has often been shown around the world that body-worn security equipment alone is not enough to protect security personnel and peaceful fans. State-of-the-art measures to secure your perimeter are characterised not by restricting people’s room for manoeuvre, but by providing intelligent support. For solutions like these, you can always rely on our experts. We will work together with you and take your existing protective measures into account to provide you with an optimal security environment – from access control at the entrance to the departure of the last spectator.
