Today, our REDSCAN sensors successfully protect thousands of installations, ranging from underground railways and national infrastructure projects to high-end shopping malls and logistics centres.
Intruder detection
OPTEX has developed a portfolio of innovative intrusion solutions over its 45-year history. Based on a multi-layered philosophy, OPTEX aims to create detection systems for all vulnerable areas. Whether it’s securing large critical infrastructures or protecting your home from opportunistic burglars, OPTEX has a solution to meet your needs.
Perimetral security in warehouses and logistic centres
Warehouses and distribution centres are a common objective for criminal activity, whether external or internal threads. The response time in a intrusion is a key factor to avoid damages or theft. As soon as the intrusion is detected, you can inform the security staff and there will be more chances to dissuade from the crime. SECURimport and OPTEX offer a rich selection of security solutions in transport and logistic sector, helping detect intruders accurately and prevent non-authorised staff access, protecting the facilities and goods.
Outdoor security for retail, small stores and big establishments
The retail sector faces many challenges: security, resources and people management, occupancy control… SECURimport and OPTEX’s security solutions help protecting the outdoor and indoor of stores with vehicle detection sensors and people counting. Solutions for all stores, retail businesses, or establishments situated in remote areas or big industrial estates. Indoor or outdoors sensors detecting an intruder in or out of the facilities, which allows to activate the lights and CCTV cameras, to trigger an audible alert or notify security personnel.

Residential security, homes, garden, facades, garages, and vehicle access
OPTEX and SECURimport provide intrusion detection solutions for both indoor and outdoor residential areas, designed to tolerate climate or temperature changes, moving vegetation, shadows, and the passage of wild animals or pets. Fences or barriers alone are often not enough for effective protection. Complementing these with detection technology enables early alerts, providing more reaction time.
We offer wired and wireless sensors, including curtain sensors for facades, doors, windows, and more. These can trigger lights, sirens, CCTV systems, or send a signal to the alarm control centre
.
Indoor |Accurate and reliable intruder detection
Our extensive range of security sensors for indoors includes Level 2 and Level 3 detectors, and awarded laser detection sensors, which can combine to create a complex security system for indoors designed to a wide option of applications, to protect from entries and corridors to customised detection surrounding valuable assets.
Outdoor |Reliable intruder detection
Stop attacks before they reach your door. OPTEX and SECURimport have a full set of sensors for residences and stores. We can protect the perimeter, the access, the outside of a building, the façade, and the interior as well, under any weather condition with multilayer solutions -where you can use one or several technologies.

PIR detectors Passive infrared sensors
PIR sensors detect movement from infrared radiation produced by both people and objects in a specific area and measuring the change in temperature. OPTEX includes long and short-range detectors which makes them perfect for residential and stores use. The long-range PIR detectors, better for stores environments, can detect intruders from a range between 30m and 100m. In the meantime, short-range PIR detectors, better for residential areas, offers a detection between 2m and 12m adjustable to the area to protect.
Infrared barriers
OPTEX’s infrared barriers offer perimetral intruders’ detection creating an invisible barrier between two strategical points in which transmitter and receptor are located. Facing directly each other, the transmitter casts light constantly to the receptor -when an object interrupts the beam of detection, the receptor is immediately activated setting the alarm. OPTEX’s IR beams can be integrated into existing security systems, such as walls and fences, as they are susceptible of expansion, eliminating the intruder’s thread.
Double technology detectors
In difficult areas and conditions, double technology sensors offer more advantages, as they combine the strengths of both detection technology -infrared and microware, to provide a more stable detection. This reduces false alarms (produced by ambient factors, such as temperature changes, or small animals, the shock of any potential RF perturbation and come with an additional protection for sun and light perturbances) -increasing the accuracy. PIR sensors detect infrared radiation (heat), while microwave sensors detect movement.
LiDAR Security
LiDAR is a type of laser technology that works by sending light pulses from the sensor, so it reaches an object and the pulse bounces back. The sensor uses the time taken for each light pulse to come back to the sensor to detect an intrusion.
Pioneers in LiDAR security
OPTEX was pioneer in using LiDAR technology for the security industry thanks to RESCAN series development. The LiDAR sensors allow to create laser walls and ceilings invisible to the human eye, and often impenetrable -offering a highly reliable and accurate intruder detection.
The true flexibility of LiDAR
The versatility of LiDAR is such that it has been used in many high-security applications, as well as across a wide range of sectors and uses. OPTEX's LiDAR technology protects thousands of sites worldwide, including railway tunnels, data centres, airports, museums, and many more
Optic Fibre Technology
The optic fibre sensors detect a change in pressure by light effect. If the fibre sensor perceives pressure by anyone climbing a fence, for example, it recognizes it and sets the alarm.
How does it work. The optical fibre sensors work transmitting light through the glass core of a cable that travels by reflecting off the cladding. In the end, the processors transform the light into electrical signals. The changes in light define other types of detecting that are taking place.
Different assembling options. The OPTEX range of fibre optic sensors offers various installation options. They can be mounted on fences to detect attempts to climb or cut them, or on walls to identify drilling activities. They can also be buried, and thanks to intelligent analysis algorithms, they can determine if an intrusion attempt is taking place.
Accurate localisation capacity of intrusion. OPTEX’s distributed acoustic sensors (DAS) provide cutting-edge technology in optic fibre detection and incorporate smart automated learning algorithms to provide a more advanced solution for applications that require long-range intruder detection sensors and precise location of the intruder in great perimeters.
