In today’s fast-paced world, ensuring the safety and security of your business has never been more crucial. With the increasing number of threats and risks, it is essential to take proactive measures to safeguard your workplace. One of the most effective ways to do so is by investing in a reliable security system. A commercial security system not only deters potential criminals but also provides you with peace of mind, knowing that your assets and employees are protected. From surveillance cameras to access control systems, these technological advancements offer a comprehensive approach to security. So, whether you’re a small startup or a large corporation, explore the importance of safeguarding your business with a robust commercial security system.
Protect Your Assets
When someone suggests protecting your assets, your first thought is likely crime. There are many other ways your business assets can be damaged. Consider the following:
- A burst pipe
- Fire
- A roof leak
- A tree falling on the building
Any of these could cause damage to your assets. Camera surveillance that you can view on your phone or laptop, like that provided by the commercial security system, you can recognize these problems and others before significant asset loss occurs.
Deter Criminal Behavior
Prominently placed cameras tend to deter those with criminal intent. They don’t want to be identified, and they certainly don’t want you to have proof of what they’ve done. If they see your security cameras, they’ll move on to an easier target.
On the other hand, hidden cameras can be ideal for providing proof of criminal activities. If you want to make sure your staff, repair technicians, and others who may regularly be in your building aren’t doing anything illegal, a few well-placed hidden cameras will give you peace of mind. And if someone does do something they shouldn’t, you’ll have video proof to take action.
Discounted Insurance Premiums
A security system can often result in cheaper insurance. A monitored system, like Pro-Tec’s Commercial Security System, may get you an even bigger discount on your premiums. The monitored nature of our security system means that you, and the appropriate authorities, are aware of problems sooner. This means you’ll submit fewer claims to your insurance, and the claims you do submit may be less substantial.
Limiting Access
With keyed locks, every time an employee quits or is let go, you have to get the keys back from them—and hope they didn’t make any copies you don’t know about. With Pro-Tec’s Commercial Security System, you can limit employee access to specific doors, require photo ID badges to go in or out, and turn off access when an employee leaves the company.
Additionally, you can arm and disarm select alarms and use your laptop, phone, or other authorized devices to monitor the cameras from anywhere. This allows you to easily monitor employee locations, provide or deny access to specific areas of the building, and curb employee theft or other misbehavior.
Safeguard Your Business
Knowing that you’ll be able to address theft and damage problems through video monitoring and security can be very valuable. It could potentially save you thousands of dollars in damages, insurance claims, and private investigations. As a business owner, it is important to safeguard the investment of your business by creating systems that prevent and alleviate potential risks.
