    Keep Your Warehouse Secure

    Are you the owner or manager of a warehouse, distribution center or manufacturing company? Are you concerned about the security of your facility when it comes to both external and internal theft? If you answered yes to either of these questions, then it’s probably about time you updated your warehouse security.

    The fact is, warehouses and distribution centers pose unique challenges that traditional security systems simply do not have the ability to address. 

    The large size and complex layout of warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing facilities means the inventory of these businesses are vulnerable to not only external threats such as a break-in, but also internal threats such as employee theft.

    Here are three ways to increase the security of your warehouse or distribution center:

    Verified security

    A conventional alarm system simply will not be able to completely secure your warehouse, and that’s not even looking at the high false alarm rates of a traditional alarm system and the slow police response times. This is why a verified security solution is essential.

    The use of Sonitrol Security’s unique verified security solution can be specifically tailored for your facility. One of Sonitrol’s verified sensors can cover 5,000 sq ft, and with our free security plan our team of experts make sure we understand where audio sensors need to be strategically placed to provide floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall coverage.

    Combine this with our verified CCTV system which is monitored by our security personnel 24/7, and you can guarantee the security of your warehouse or distribution center.

    Screen employees

    It’s unfortunate, but it’s often the case that your warehouse or distribution center is particularly vulnerable to internal theft. As a result, make sure you conduct employee screenings prior to hiring. You should especially include a criminal background check.

    This will help you to discover any applicants who are a higher risk of committing internal theft. Background checks are also a useful practice in general, and information around employment history, education and past references can help you make more informed hiring decisions.

    Limit access to specific areas of your site

    The installation of managed access control can further improve your security against both internal and external theft. A managed access control system will prevent unauthorized people from accessing restricted areas of your site.

    The system will allow you to control the level of access each employee has, and non-employees will not be able to simply stroll into your facility. Not only this, but the system’s reporting functionality will mean you will know exactly which employees are in which room at any given time.

    By simply limiting the number of employees and customers who have access to a certain area, your warehouse will be less vulnerable to theft and vandalism, and your high-valued assets will be kept secure.
