Partial Projects List
Project: Hawthorne Plaza
Site: 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco
The Hawthorne Plaza project incorporated two 22-story high rise
buildings connected by a common lobby area. MSS installed a high
speed fiber optic network back bone to accommodate the security
system installation.
Phase I of the project consisted of an enterprise security management
system which included perimeter access control, lobby level optical
turnstiles, interior and exterior CCTV cameras, and integrated biometric
readers.
Alarm monitoring devices were installed throughout the facility.
We increased tenant security by implementing elevator cab control,
photo badging, a checkpoint firewall and a web hosted visitor badging
system.
In Phase II, MSS converted a large anchor tenant to the new security
system. We performed a database partition, replaced existing hardware
and activated approximately 75 card readers.
Project: California Pacific Medical
Center (CPMC)
Site: San Francisco
CPMC has been a long-term work in progress for McMillan Security
Systems. McMillans initial security design work began in 1997
for the Pacific Campus. Since that time our systems have grown to
include the California Campus East & West, Davies Medical Center
Campus, and numerous remote CPMC properties located throughout San
Francisco. This project has presented challenges typically associated
with hospital related work. Some of these include working in active
patient care areas, areas of limited access and often areas containing
hazardous materials or conditions. Many of our technicians have
been specifically trained and certified to work in various environmental
conditions. CPMCs security system consists of access control,
CCTV, alarm monitoring systems and ID Badge Production. System controls
and alarm monitoring is performed by a centralized command server
located at Pacific Campus. A client work station at Cal Campus provides
a secondary control point for the systems. The system runs across
CPMCs wide area network employing back-up counter measures
against network or general power failures. Ongoing projects include
campus wide time & attendance integration, significant parking
structure security improvements and further expansion of the access
control system.
Project: The Sequoias of San Francisco
The Sequoias is a self contained, full service retirement community
providing in-house medical attention, restaurants, activities, residencies
and various other programs and services. Recently, McMillan Security
System and McMillan Electric provided the necessary engineering
and design services for the installation of a new security console
and extensive CCTV system replacement. This high-rise facility requires
a sophisticated CCTV system that allows for simultaneous monitoring
and recording of the numerous interior and exterior CCTV cameras.
In addition to the improved monitoring capability, the newly installed
system is network compatible and fully digital. Three 120 Gb hard-drives
archive days of activity that can be accessed for review anytime
by camera location, date and time with a few simply key stokes.
The recording quality, overall performance and general ease of use
of this system is unmatched.
Project: Jack London Square Security
Upgrade
The Jack London Square Security System Upgrade presented some very
unique challenges for McMillan Security Systems. Our work scope
encompassed the entire camera system, emergency telephone system,
the complete replacement of the security console and the installation
of a new emergency diesel generator on the roof. The system spans
across several buildings, parking structures and a public retail
area covering nearly 20 acres.
To accomplish all of these tasks in the time frame allotted, it
was necessary to work in the garages, security control center and
on the roof all at the same time. All of the existing systems were
required to remain functional while we replaced and upgraded to
a new system which, included the entire security control console.
The systems we upgraded and installed are:
New CCTV Matrix Switch
New Digital Recording System
New Dictaphone Telephone Recorder
New Emergency Call System (approx. 65 call stations)
New Pan and Tilt Cameras (approx. 25)
New Fixed Cameras (approx. 35)
New Emergency Generator
New Microwave Link for a remote Pan and Tilt (approx. 1/2
mile away)
This system is currently operating and serviced by MSS under a
preventative maintenance contract.
