CASE STUDY
The Big Bad Wolf
Matthew Scott-Lyon, a well-known restaurateur and owner of the Big Bad Wolf pizza bar, an upscale eatery in the newly renovated Cedar Square shopping centre in Northern Johannesburg, wanted to provide a safe, aesthetically pleasing culinary delight for his customers in this latest establishment. The client’s objectives With the alarming increase in mall and retail store robberies, he felt that a proactive approach to security could only enhance his customers’ experience. He contacted KHN Business Solutions and asked for a surveillance system that would provide good video coverage and clarity at all times, could record audio as well as video feed at the main bar in case of questionable behaviour, and that he could access from his mobile so he could view footage easily when he was not at the restaurant for flexibility and peace of mind. In addition, he wanted the surveillance system to be unobtrusive and aesthetically pleasing to match the upmarket décor of Big Bad Wolf.
The AXIS solution Yuro Carnino, owner of KHN Business Solutions and long-time AXIS partner with over ten years of experience, used his knowledge and expertise to select a blend of AXIS cameras that best suited the restaurateur’s specific needs. In his design, he used a strategically placed AXIS M1065-L camera with built in microphone and integrated audio, in the main bar service area backed up by an AXIS M3047-P (fisheye) camera in the main bar dining area for maximum wall to wall coverage.
