At Brackenridge Estate, security is a core priority woven into the daily operations of our community. Our comprehensive, multilayered security strategy ensures a safe and peaceful environment for all residents and visitors.

 

Led by a full-time, on-site Security Manager, our team works proactively to prevent crime and maintain high standards of vigilance. The Security Manager is actively involved in the broader Plettenberg Bay safety network, collaborating closely with the Community Policing Forum (CPF), local SAPS members, and neighbouring security structures. With evolving security risks, our team is constantly upgrading, refining, and adapting our systems to ensure consistent excellence.

​

Access Control

 

Access to Brackenridge Estate is tightly monitored through controlled entry points designed to manage all visitors, residents, construction teams, and service providers.

Key features include:

 

• Strictly controlled pedestrian and vehicle access

• Real-time monitoring of daily contractor and service-provider movement

• License Plate Recognition (LPR) cameras at access gates to enhance tracking and verification

 

All access is overseen by trained security personnel for fast, efficient, and accountable entry and exit.

​

Perimeter Monitoring

 

The estate is enclosed by approximately 6 km of fully electrified perimeter fencing, monitored 24/7.

 

• Continuous day and night patrols conducted by on-site security officers

• Immediate fault and alarm notifications sent directly to the estate’s control room

• State-of-the-art software providing real-time alerts and system reporting

• Rapid on-site response to any irregularities, perimeter breaches, or alarms

 

Our perimeter security is designed to maintain a strong protective boundary around the entire estate.

 

On-Site Security Team & Enhancements

 

Brackenridge Estate maintains 24/7 on-site security staffing, ensuring full coverage during both day and night cycles. Security personnel oversee all gate operations and ensure access points are locked and secured in the evenings. Every resident, visitor, and guest is assisted and verified upon entering or leaving the estate.

 

While our internal team provides comprehensive estate-wide protection, homeowners may individually choose to contract additional armed response services for their private residences.
