In this blog entry, the Albuquerque commercial locksmith service and Albuquerque lock installation experts here at 505 Locksmith will detail the most important factors of commercial security that business owners should implement to protect their employees and assets.
Access Control Devices
Retail environments can greatly benefit from the installation of access control devices like electronic keypads that automatically open locks at particular times, or access control systems that utilize touchscreen log-in or proxy card systems.
Video Surveillance
Video surveillance systems have wide possibilities of customizable expansion. Video surveillance can be used to monitor cash registers, inventory rooms, storage rooms, parking lots, and of course, all entrances and exits. The more angles that your security camera system covers, the better.
Entrance and Exit Limitations
We recommend trying to keep the number of entry points at your property to a minimum. The more access points there are, the more possibilities criminals will have to break into your property. We recommend locking access points that don’t need to be used in non-emergency situations, and securing / monitoring them with keycard or code based access control systems.
Alarm Monitoring
We recommend installing a security system that is monitored by a professional security company. This will allow you peace of mind in the knowledge that if a break-in or unlawful entry does occur at your property, that the authorities will be signaled as soon as possible, in real time, potentially catching a criminal red-handed, or at the very least assisting in catching the person responsible in the future.
