A security incident can develop quickly. An unauthorised person enters the building, an alarm activates after hours, equipment is stolen or staff discover damage when they arrive for work. In the first few minutes, people need to know how to protect themselves, who to contact and what information to preserve. A written incident response plan turns those decisions into an agreed process. It supports a calmer response and helps the business move from immediate safety to investigation, recovery and improvement. The plan should reflect the premises, workforce and security systems used by......

Shared entrances need to feel welcoming to residents and their guests while preventing access by people who should not be inside the building. That balance can be difficult in a condominium or apartment property, where residents, visitors, delivery drivers, contractors and property staff may all arrive throughout the day.Traditional keys and shared door codes can quickly become difficult to control. Keys are copied, codes are passed on and former residents may retain access unless the property has a clear process for managing credentials. The strongest approach combines suitable technology with simple......

Managing security at one business property can be challenging. When an organisation operates from several offices, stores, warehouses or other sites, maintaining control becomes considerably more complex. Each location may have different opening hours, staffing arrangements, access points and levels of risk. Without a joined-up approach, managers can find themselves dealing with separate alarm systems, individual camera platforms, large numbers of physical keys and inconsistent security procedures. Modern commercial security technology can make this easier by bringing video surveillance, access control, alarms and reporting together. This gives authorised managers greater visibility across......

Whether you are leaving Bermuda for a short holiday, travelling for work or spending an extended period overseas, knowing your home is properly protected can give you valuable peace of mind. An unoccupied property can face a range of risks. These include attempted break-ins, fire, water leaks, storm damage and small maintenance issues that may become much more serious if nobody is there to notice them. Fortunately, modern home security systems make it easier to keep an eye on your property even when you are thousands of miles away. With the right......

Access control systems are one of the most effective ways for businesses to manage building security, control entry and protect staff, visitors and assets. However, even the best technology can fall short if it is not planned, installed or managed correctly. Whether you operate a small office, a retail store, a warehouse, a hospitality venue or a large commercial facility, access control plays an important role in your overall security strategy. Modern access control systems offer far more than simply replacing traditional keys. They allow businesses to decide who can enter specific......

For many Bermuda businesses, security systems are not just about protecting property and assets. They can also play an important role in supporting insurance requirements, reducing risk and demonstrating a proactive approach to business protection. Whether you operate a retail store, office, warehouse, hospitality venue or commercial facility, insurance providers want to understand the measures you have in place to reduce the likelihood of claims. While every insurer and policy is different, security systems can often help businesses strengthen their risk profile and provide greater confidence that their premises are properly protected.......

After more than 1,000 miles in the saddle, Martin, Dave and Marc have successfully completed their Land’s End to John O’Groats cycling challenge, raising over £35,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust and Young Lives vs Cancer. The challenge was inspired by Dave’s son, Shôn, who was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in June 2025 whilst studying law at the University of Liverpool. What followed was an incredibly difficult period for Shôn and his family. Following multiple biopsies and operations, he underwent an intensive course of chemotherapy and spent four months in hospital. During treatment......

Access control systems give businesses a more secure and convenient way to manage who can enter their building, when they can enter, and which areas they are allowed to access. For many Bermuda businesses, traditional keys are no longer the most practical way to manage building security. Keys can be lost, copied, passed between staff members or left in the wrong hands after someone leaves the organisation. An access control system offers a smarter and more flexible alternative. Instead of relying only on physical keys, businesses can manage entry using cards, fobs,......

Installing a security system is only the first step in protecting your property. Without regular maintenance, even the most advanced systems can become less effective over time, leaving gaps in your security without you realising. For both homeowners and businesses in Bermuda, security systems are relied on every day to monitor activity, deter intruders and provide reassurance. However, like any technology, these systems require regular checks and upkeep to ensure they continue to perform as expected. Selectron provides a range of residential security and commercial security solutions, helping clients not only install......

Access control systems are becoming an increasingly important part of commercial security in Bermuda. Instead of relying solely on traditional locks and keys, businesses are adopting modern systems that allow them to manage who can enter a building, when they can enter and which areas they can access. For many organisations, managing building access is a growing challenge. As businesses expand, employ more staff and work with contractors or visitors, it becomes harder to maintain control using physical keys alone. Keys can be copied, misplaced or passed between employees, which creates potential......

Home security technology has changed significantly over the past decade. Traditional alarm systems that once worked independently are now being replaced or enhanced by smart security systems that allow homeowners to monitor and control their property from almost anywhere. For homeowners in Bermuda, this shift towards smarter home security is particularly valuable. Many properties are vacant during work hours, holidays or extended travel, making remote monitoring and automation extremely useful. Instead of relying on a simple alarm siren, modern systems provide real time alerts, camera access and integrated controls that help homeowners......

We would like to share a cause that is very close to our hearts at Selectron and to ask for your support. Our director Martin, alongside his friends David and Marc, is raising funds for two charities associated with the Clatterbridge Cancer Centre in Liverpool. Their efforts are inspired by David’s son — and Martin’s godson — Shon, who was diagnosed with lymphoma at just 19 years old. Throughout his treatment, Shon has shown incredible courage and resilience. The care and dedication provided by the medical teams at Clatterbridge have made a......

Security and electrical systems are often installed and then left untouched until something stops working. Regular maintenance helps ensure alarms, cameras, and automation systems continue operating reliably, protecting Bermuda businesses without interruption. For many organisations, security systems quietly support daily operations in the background. When they function properly, they are easy to overlook. However, like any technical equipment, these systems perform best when checked and maintained periodically. Preventing Problems Before They Occur Most equipment failures develop gradually rather than suddenly. Cameras may lose clarity, sensors can shift slightly over time, or software......
