CULTURAL PROPERTIES

One way of thinking about a cultural property, such as objects of artistic, archaeological, ethnological or historical interest, is as components of a common human culture, whatever their places of origin or present location, independent of property rights or national jurisdiction.  They are common to everyone’s culture.

Openly displaying art, artifacts and documents of great historical importance is a risky business, but this is exactly where Nationwide Security Corporation can help.  There are many museums, galleries, theaters, libraries, and historical research facilities throughout the state of Connecticut, and each requires close attention and the highest level of security.  Many of the buildings also frequently undergo renovations and construction, therefore ensuring consistent security is extremely important.  It is also vital for cultural properties to pay close attention to their storage facilities that house art work at an off-site location.

Nationwide Security Corporation is proud to have mastered this specific high level of security.  Some of our clients include Yale Beinecke Rare Book Library, Yale Peabody Museum, Yale University Art Gallery, and Yale University British Arts Center.  Each account has an integrated security system controlled by both an on-site and off-site control room.  Many cameras and devices that are used to secure the art in a cultural property are specifically designed for each location.  An example are the cameras we used in the unique texahedron ceiling at the Yale University Art Gallery , the unique camera and bracket solely designed for the Yale University British Art Center’s ceiling, and also the security built into the custom made glass and wood framed doors throughout the Yale University British Art Center.

Nationwide Security Corporation understands the value of securing such important pieces of art.   Our staff uses their education, training and creative abilities to design security systems at the highest level.  Everything comes into play when designing the security for a building that houses many pieces of our culture’s history.  Every inch of a cultural property will be secured and monitored.
