Discreet fine art and exhibit protection
Discreet Security for Museums, Galleries & Fine Art
Patented battery-free sensors detect lift or removal, with no sensor wiring and alerts through a compatible hub and app.
Artwork protection range
Two sensor formats, one discreet protection layer.
Choose a behind-frame sensor for wall-mounted artwork or a low-profile sensor beneath sculptures, vases and artefacts.
01
Artwork Sensor for Painting
A discreet battery-free wireless sensor installed behind the frame to detect lifting or unauthorised removal of framed paintings and wall-mounted artwork.
- Hidden behind the painting frame
- Adjustable depth from 20 to 60 mm
- Self-powered with no battery replacement
02
Artwork Sensor for Sculpture
A low-profile battery-free wireless sensor placed beneath sculptures, vases, artefacts and valuable display objects to detect lifting or unauthorised removal.
- Ø150 mm; custom sizes available
- Black or white finish
- Self-powered with no battery replacement
Protection scenarios
Designed around how valuable pieces are actually disturbed.
Artwork protection is different from perimeter intrusion. The risk is often subtle: a frame lifted from its place, a collectible moved from a display surface, or a sculpture disturbed after hours.
Painting lifted from wall
Back-of-frame sensing helps detect removal or separation without adding visible hardware to the front of the artwork.
Unauthorised removal
The sensor stays discreetly behind the frame and transmits an alert when the artwork is lifted or removed.
Object lifted
The sculpture sensor becomes part of the display base, protecting vases, artifacts and collectibles from movement.
Real-time response path
Sensor events can reach the mini alarm hub and mobile app so teams know which asset needs attention.
Protection without visual noise
Protect more high-value assets without visual noise or disruptive installation.
For galleries, museums, collectors and luxury interiors, Apeiron Guard keeps the sensing layer small, wireless and maintenance-light, so installation stays clean and the displayed object remains the focus.
No routine battery changeBattery-free sensor operation reduces maintenance across a larger collection.
No visible signal wiringWireless communication keeps finished walls, frames and display surfaces clean.
Real-time alarm pathEvents can trigger a local hub alarm and mobile app notification.
Non-invasive installationThe painting sensor mounts behind the frame, while the sculpture sensor is placed beneath the protected object.
Expandable coverageAdd painting and sculpture protection under the same asset sensor family.
Where it fits
Art security for permanent collections and changing exhibitions.
Designed for museums and heritage sites, commercial galleries and auction houses, art fairs and temporary exhibitions, and private collections.
Signal flow
From movement to response.
The interactive sequence shows how a lift or removal event can reach the mini alarm hub and mobile app, so a collection can be managed as one system.
01All Artworks Protected
Paintings, sculptures and display objects stay continuously protected.
02Asset Moves
A painting is lifted or a sculpture/object is disturbed.
03Hub Receives + Alarm
The Mini Alarm Hub receives the signal and sounds an immediate alarm.
04App + Guard Response
A real-time mobile alert supports a fast on-site security response.
Mini alarm hub + app
Manage protected assets across rooms, systems and locations.
The mini alarm hub acts as the receiver for artwork and specialty sensors. It can pair multiple sensors and connect collection-level alerts into the Apeiron Guard app workflow.

FAQ
Common questions about artwork protection sensors.
What is included in the current Asset & Specialty Sensors page?
The current range includes two artwork protection sensors: one for framed paintings and one for sculpture or object display protection.
Where does the painting sensor install?
It installs on the back of a framed painting or artwork, so the protection layer stays hidden during normal display.
How does the sculpture sensor work visually?
It is a low-profile circular pedestal-style sensor that sits beneath a sculpture, vase, artifact or collectible.
Does the system need regular sensor battery replacement?
No. The sensor concept is battery-free, reducing the maintenance burden for protected collections.
