Information about security issues in apartments in Coimbatore
Q: I'm planning to buy a residential apartment in Coimbatore soon. Since i'll be moving in with my family, i was wondering what is the state of security measures in the apartment projects in the city, and are they suitable for families?
Another important security measure that most of the apartments have today is intercom facility. To prevent any unknown person from even entering the apartment complex, intercom acts as a suitable option, with voice identification required for each time someone wants to enter the complex.
Hey there, did you know that apartments have a decent car parking system to ensure that the car doesn't get stolen. There are separate CCTV cameras in the parking lot, and no unauthorised person is allowed into the parking area.
While outside measures are important, i think that inside the apartment measures like anti skid flooring, copper wiring for electrical fittings, plastic paint on the walls, and viltrified tiles. These measures are now available in most of the project, which is very good.
Personally, the presence of a easy to find fire escape is a measure that i looked for while finding the perfect place for my family. There are so many cases of accidental fires recently that i think that a proper fire escape is a must have in every residential project.
Most of the residential apartment projects nowadays have a gated community with guards stationed at the entry point , and with high walls surrounding the entire apartment premises. That too is a very important thing since it keeps the intruders and thieves away.
Hi, CCTV Camera in most of the apartment complex areas is also a must have, in terms of security. Keeping that in mind, most of the projects these days have a fixed control room, where the security person, can keep a constant watch on the happening around the complex.
I totally get your concern, and security was definitely a concern for me as well, since i have small kids. The good news is that most of the proper residential apartment nowdays come equipped with security measures like gated community, round the clock security etc.
See, in my opinion, one feature you should definitely look for in apartment proejcts is if the structure is RCC framed. What this basically means is that the apartment complex won't crumble in case of earthquakes, and other natural disasters.
