Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED)

---

 Lioncrest Security provides professional CPTED assessments that evaluate how the design and layout of a property either discourages or enables criminal activity. By analyzing how people move through a space, how areas are lit and observed, and how access is controlled, we help clients reduce risk without relying solely on guards or cameras.

CPTED allows security to be built into the environment itself — improving safety while controlling long-term costs.

Site Layout, Access & Perimeter Evaluation

We assess how entrances, exits, fencing, gates, and traffic flow affect security. Poorly designed access points often create opportunities for theft, trespassing, and unauthorized activity.

We identify:

• Uncontrolled access areas 
• Ineffective perimeter barriers
• Confusing or exploitable site layouts

 Lighting is one of the most powerful crime deterrents. We evaluate:

• Light levels in parking lots, walkways, and work areas
• Shadowed and poorly lit zones
• Glare or lighting that reduces camera effectiveness
   

Recommendations focus on improving visibility while minimizing energy and maintenance costs.

We analyze how people, vehicles, and cameras naturally observe a space. Areas that cannot be seen easily become prime locations for theft, vandalism, and concealment.

This includes:

• Blind spots and hidden areas 
• Obstructed sightlines
• Landscaping or structures that block visibility

 Clear, controlled movement reduces both crime and confusion. We review:

• Pedestrian and vehicle flow 
• Signage and directional controls
• Separation of public, employee, and restricted areas
   

This improves safety while supporting operational efficiency.

 We review parking lots, walkways, loading areas, and building exteriors to identify:

• High-risk locations 
• Poorly monitored areas
• Unsafe pedestrian paths

 CPTED works best when integrated with:

• Guards and patrols 
• Surveillance systems
• Access control
• Incident response plans
   

We ensure design changes support your current security investments.

 Lioncrest provides realistic, prioritized recommendations based on:

• Risk level
• Budget
• Operational impact
• Long-term maintenance
   

No unnecessary upgrades.
Only what improves safety and control.

• Utilities and infrastructure sites
• Construction and industrial properties
• Corporate campuses and offices
• Warehouses and distribution centers
• Residential and commercial buildings
• Parking facilities and vehicle yards
• Property owners and developers

Our CPTED assessments are performed by professionals who understand how crime actually occurs — not just how sites look on paper. We translate design into operational security.

We don’t just secure buildings.
We secure behavior, movement, and opportunity.
