Case Study: Balbriggan Credit Union achieves clear, high-resolution transaction evidence and reduced losses with Milestone Systems

Balbriggan Credit Union saves their money with IP video security

Balbriggan Credit Union, one of Ireland’s largest credit unions, faced frequent high-footfall cash transactions but relied on an old analog CCTV system that produced poor, pixelated footage and could not reliably resolve incidents or verify cash handovers. Management required clear, zoomable images of the entrance, lobby and cashier desks, integration with their existing Paxton access control, secure redundant storage, and easy workstation access for authorized staff.

Ultimate Security and GVD installed 26 high-resolution IP cameras (ACTi and IQEye) recording to a Milestone XProtect® Express VMS on an 8TB RAID5 server, fully integrated with Paxton so each access event links to video. The upgrade delivers clear, identifiable footage for playback and zooming to verify cash transactions, reliable redundant storage, and controlled multi-user access, greatly improving incident resolution and daily operational security.
