1. Access Control
Controlling who can access your facility and when they have access is critical for any business. Warehouses, storage areas, employee-only staff areas, and your main entries are all areas that may need protection at certain times of the day. By adding access control technology, you improve your commercial security with the simple tap of a button on a keypad or the swipe of a keycard.
Unique user access codes, biometric scanners, and keycards are all methods used to limit access to these areas. For example, all employees could receive a specially programmed keycard that gives them access to the staff-only areas like the storage closets, the breakroom, and the parking garage. Managers can even limit the times of day these cards provide access so that new staff members wouldn’t be allowed entry to the building or warehouse before or after business hours. And newly terminated employees would immediately lose access to your Southern Ontario business once you remove their access via an intuitive online dashboard. Protecting your business is a breeze with access control technology.
2. Surveillance Cameras
Keeping an eye on a commercial property can easily be done with the addition of advanced surveillance cameras. Modern camera technology includes advanced artificial intelligence, thermal detection, motion sensors, and more, all integrated into an ultra-high-definition camera with impeccable visual range. Remotely log into your security monitoring app to view live and previously recorded footage, panning, tilting, and zooming the cameras as needed to see disturbances in stunning detail.
Managers can even program the cameras to send a text or app notification to their smartphones when they detect motion. Consider adding surveillance cameras to exterior doors, windows, and along the perimeter of your building, along with interior cameras that face into your lobby area and surveil highly trafficked areas.
3. Alarm Monitoring Services
No business owner can be expected to monitor their business at all hours of the day. That’s why a central monitoring station can keep watch when owners and facility crews are unavailable and off-the-clock. The monitoring service team can call local authorities if a disturbance or alarm goes off, ensuring your commercial property is always protected.
