THE GETTY MUSEUM

The Getty 

The J. Paul Getty Museum, commonly referred to as the Getty, is an internationally acclaimed art museum in California. It is housed on two campuses: the Getty Center in Los Angeles and the Getty Villa in Malibu. The museums serve over two million visitors each year.

One of the Getty’s primary goals is to deliver an exceptional, unique, and memorable visitor experience while providing the utmost protection for the countless works of art and physical security for staff, partners, and patrons. The Getty turned to PLANNET to help them realize their vision of a world-class, modern, secure, and safe venue for some of mankind’s most cherished treasures.

The PLANNET team oversaw the design, specifications development, bidding, and oversight of installing a turnkey Closed-Circuit Television System at The Getty Center in Los Angeles. System components included a digital video management camera system with over 450 fixed and pan/tilt/zoom cameras, server-based virtual system recording, and multiple monitoring and system management workstations.

PLANNET was also responsible for the design, specifications development, bidding, and oversight of the installation of access control and alarm monitoring systems. System components include complete access control of over 750 doors/gates, alarm monitoring of over 10,000 alarm points, an emergency intercom system, a delayed egress system, a redundant front-end computer monitoring system, elevator control, and integration of the access and alarm monitoring system with closed-circuit television and emergency intercom systems.

Additionally, PLANNET partnered with The J. Paul Getty’s Malibu Villa to completely redesign the Villa’s access control and video surveillance systems. System components included complete access control of over 350 doors/gates, alarm monitoring of over 10,000 alarm points, an emergency intercom system, a delayed egress system, a redundant front-end computer monitoring system, elevator control, and integration of the access and alarm monitoring system with closed-circuit television and emergency intercom systems.
