Security Concept for Shipyards: Ö-varvet

How can a historic shipyard with multiple buildings and workshops implement a modern, integrated security concept?

Ö-varvet, a shipyard operating since 1916, had developed a grown infrastructure over the years—multiple workshops, halls, and buildings. Several independent security systems were in place side by side: access control, intrusion alarm, and fire protection were not connected.

The head of security describes the situation as a significant challenge with high requirements: customers from different areas of the maritime industry set strict expectations regarding safety and operational procedures.

In cooperation with Monitor Larm and Aras Security, a modular security concept was implemented that connects all areas of the shipyard within one unified system.

Insights from the Head of Security

Challenges

Integration into existing building structures

Parallel operation of several security systems

High requirements for fire and intrusion protection

Complex logistics for access rights (gates, halls, workshops)

Initial Situation

Multiple buildings and workshops across the shipyard site

Existing alarm systems and access control without central management

Different security-relevant areas with high requirements

Need for a unified platform for security and logistics

Security Solution for the Shipyard

Ö-varvet wanted to combine all security-relevant functions into a single system. The Head of Security explains that Monitor Larm solved all issues that arose during the project. Today, door and gate control, intrusion alarm, and fire alarm are managed through a central platform.

Results

Centralization: all security functions in one system

Transparency: clear management of doors, gates, and alarm areas

Safety: combination of access control, intrusion, and fire alarm

Integration: open interfaces for existing systems

“Of course, I would recommend it to other customers – mainly because it is an open system that enables solutions and supports new ideas.”

Dan Lovrén, Head of Security Ö-varvet

Conclusion

Ö-varvet demonstrates how a historically developed site can implement a modern security concept without interrupting ongoing operations.

By integrating all relevant security functions into a single system, the shipyard gains efficiency and transparency. Open interfaces enable the continued use of existing technology and gradual expansion over time.
