Security for recreation and holiday parks, all year round
Security for your holiday park has to handle a full park and an empty one, summer and winter, with camera surveillance, fire suppression for electrical cabinets, fire detection and access control in one system.
One fixed project price. From 4 months up to 10 years.
- Different deployment in and out of season
- Suppression unit per chalet or per block
- Park entrance managed by season
Holiday parks: busy in season, empty outside it
A holiday park is a large site with scattered chalets, sanitary buildings and technical facilities. It is full one month and empty the next. Your deployment changes with it, from one system.
In high season there is constant public traffic, and you want camera surveillance and access control. Out of season the park is largely empty and burglars and vandals have free rein.

A solution that only covers the season will not do. With Darwin the price is fixed: one project price for a term of 4 months up to 10 years, so it spans several seasons too. You can rent, or build your own fleet through purchase, hire purchase or financing. We take care of the management.
Securing your holiday park in and out of season
In high season
The focus is on guests, access control and visible surveillance.
Out of season
Darwin switches to vacant site security: surveillance of the entire perimeter, fire detection and alarm follow-up as agreed.
All year round
One system with two modes.
Darwin AMFE in electrical cabinets at chalets
Electrical cabinets at chalets are a hidden fire hazard. Ageing installations, overloading and damp can together lead to a short circuit and fire, often in the middle of the night when nobody sees it. That risk runs all year and is rarely monitored actively.
Darwin AMFE is an automatic suppression unit that sits directly inside the cabinet. The unit activates by itself as soon as the temperature there rises too high. That protects your property and limits the damage.

AMFE works without water, so neighbouring chalets suffer no water damage. The system also works without external power. Our own engineers install and maintain the units.

Frequently asked questions about holiday park security
Why is a seasonal solution not enough for a holiday park?
The risk does not stop when the season ends. Empty parks attract burglary and vandalism, and electrical cabinets remain a fire hazard all year round.
Where is the suppression unit fitted at a chalet?
Directly inside the electrical cabinet, per chalet or per block.
Are neighbouring chalets affected by the extinguishing?
No. Darwin AMFE works without water, so the surrounding chalets suffer no water damage.
What changes in the security during winter?
Deployment then switches to vacant site security: surveillance of the entire perimeter, fire detection and alarm follow-up as agreed.
Who responds to an alarm?
Darwin monitors the technology and connects to your own alarm receiving centre or that of our regular partner. Follow-up takes place as agreed.
