Immediate Protection When Every Second Counts
Smoke Cloak Fog Security Systems
Smoke Cloak is a security fog system designed to repel intruders by disorientating them.
The device is connected to a suitable alarm system which triggers the smoke cloak when an intruder is detected. The majority of property loss occurs in the first few minutes of a break-in. With the implementation of Smoke Cloak on the premises within the area deemed to be the main target area and within seconds of a break-in, the protected area is filled with an impenetrable cloud of fog. This provides an effective barrier and forces the intruders to leave the premises by reducing or removing visibility. The smoke is nor real, it is a glycol vapour and is harmless.
Protect What Matters Most – With Smoke Cloak and Security Fog Solutions.
In today’s fast-paced world, crime happens in seconds. A traditional security system alerts, but what if you could stop intruders in their tracks. Enter Smoke Cloak and modern security fogging systems, designed to provide immediate, active protection by filling the area with a dense, harmless fog that impairs visibility, disorients intruders, and prevents theft before it begins.
What is a Smoke Cloak?
Smoke Cloak is a market-leading fog security solution that deploys artificial fog in the event of an intrusion. It’s an active security layer that complements alarms and CCTV by physically preventing access to assets within seconds of a break-in.
How It Works:
- Upon detection of unauthorized access (via alarm trigger or motion sensor).
- The fog generator releases a high-density fog.
- Visibility drops to near zero in under 10 seconds.
- Intruders are disoriented and retreat, unable to locate or steal anything.
- The fog is Harmless to humans, animals, electronics, and furnishings, Non-toxic and leaves no residue.
- Quickly disperses after the event (within 20–45 minutes, depending on ventilation).
Choosing the right system depends on:
- Size of the protected area.
- Desired response time.
- Integration needs.
- Budget and maintenance plans.
Benefits & Advantages
- Immediate Theft Prevention – Deters criminals within seconds before law enforcement arrives.
- Minimal Damage or Loss – Reduces smash-and-grab success to near zero.
- Non-Lethal & Safe – Fog is safe for people, equipment, and stock with no clean-up required.
- Integration with Existing Systems – Compatible with most alarm systems, CCTV, and monitoring services.
- Compliance with British Standards – Many fogging systems (including Smoke Cloak) are built to meet BS EN 50131-8, ensuring system performance, safety, and reliability.
British Standards & Compliance
To ensure legal compliance and system efficiency, it is essential to choose systems that conform to BS EN 50131-8 “Alarm systems – Intrusion and hold-up systems – Part 8: Security fog devices”.
This standard outlines:
- Minimum fog density.
- Deployment speed.
- Coverage area.
- Safety protocols.
Installation and configuration must be carried out by qualified engineers who understand the application requirements and risk level of the premises. Installing a fogging system isn ‘t plug-and-play. Here are some key aspects for an installation:
- Correct Placement – Nozzles must be positioned to ensure optimal fog coverage across entry points and asset zones.
- Room Size & Ventilation – Ceiling height, airflows, HVAC systems, and open plan layouts can affect fog density and effectiveness.
- Power Backup – Requires an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) to function during power outages.
- Integration with Alarm Systems – Needs seamless communication with motion detectors, door contacts, and remote monitoring systems.
- Testing & Training – Staff should be trained to understand activation procedures and avoid accidental triggers.
