“It is our sincere belief that GJD’s perimeter detection equipment is at the forefront of security, in terms of detection ability, reliability, and freedom of false alarms.

"The inclusion of Radiovisor infra-red beam technology will even further enhance our products."

Stephen Lasenby, managing director of Radiovisor, said: “GJD is a professional and well-respected company and is ideally placed to take our IR beam technology forward. We are confident that our customers and suppliers will benefit greatly from the ‘GJD’ brand, their focus on technology innovation and world class service.”
