Back

Half of California's 20 largest wildfires have occurred in the last 5 years. Many homes become uninsurable, forcing owners to seek their own protection solutions.

A 1.75m singular chassis raises the turret above ground foliage, with a pan-tilt, 2-axis rotating turret, allowing a complete 360-degree range of motion.

Avert Sentry can be installed in a wide range of terrain and environments - plumbed into network supply or an external reservoir, with an independent battery backup of 24 hours.

Default Office worked with Avert on design and engineering in parallel, requiring both to work together to house the required systems, and fitting mechanical constraints into the design.

An asymmetric layout brings both visual and mechanical balance, with access panels formed through a circular trim along the length of the form.

Default Office designed on-site installation packaging for the complete set of parts.
