    3 Common Causes of False Alarms

    You did your research and decided a business security system would give you greater peace of mind. But perhaps you've found those reassuring alarms blaring at inconvenient times over harmless triggers. False alarms, while disruptive, often result from understandable causes. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, an estimated 94% to 98% of police responses to alarms are made to false alarms. Here are some frequent culprits behind false security system alarms. 1. Unexpected Guests Trigger Motion Sensors You notified your system you'd be out, only to get an alert of interior movement. The likely reason? You forgot that an employee would be swinging by outside of their usual hours. Motion sensors on automated systems, while helpful features, can't distinguish between intruders and expected guests. When scheduling unexpected shifts or maintenance, remember to adjust settings appropriately. It's additionally a wise idea to provide employees with phone numbers to call in case of...

    Exploring the Advantages of Property Video Surveillance

    There are many ways to keep your commercial property secure. One of the most effective methods of protection businesses can use is video surveillance. Here are a few reasons to invest in a top-notch security system. Automatic Alerts With video surveillance, you don't always have to keep an eye on your property. Your cameras do that for you, and they're capable of sending automatic alerts to the appropriate authorities. According to our internal resources, police respond to 38 million alarm activations per year. Your surveillance system can be attached to a silent alarm that's triggered when a person passes a certain point to instantly let the police know someone is on your property. Evidence If a crime happens, evidence is often needed to make a case with the police or to present in court. There's no better evidence than a solid video. With a video security system surrounding your property, you'll be able to...

    5 Ways to Tell You’re Using Quality Security Systems

    The world of security systems continues to evolve as technology advances. According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, the fire alarm and security industry has over 80,000 employees. However, now you're faced with a range of low-quality systems alongside ones of higher quality. Here are a few ways to ensure you're using a quality security system. 1. Intrusion Detection Some security systems are specially designed to let you know if a door opens, but that's about it. Other systems go above and beyond to detect intruders. These systems have state-of-the-art features like seeing when any door or window opens to alert you of intruders. Look for systems with multiple door and window sensors to keep your building safe. 2. Reliable Cameras Every security system should have some form of monitoring. Security cameras should monitor the outdoors and have night vision so you can prosecute people trespassing.

    3 Main Benefits of a Commercial Security System

    In today's business landscape, ensuring your commercial property's safety and security is paramount. A commercial security system is a comprehensive solution that provides various benefits to protect your assets, employees, and customers. Here are three reasons why a commercial security system is a necessity for your property. 1. Deter Criminals One of the best ways to avoid crime is to prevent it from occurring in the first place. A commercial security system can play a huge role in deterring criminals. When a criminal knows that a property is protected, they are far less likely to attempt vandalism and break-ins on that property. Commercial security systems scare off criminals. The mere presence of visible security devices can discourage burglaries, vandalism, and other illegal activities. Criminals are opportunists, and if things don't look easy, they will likely move on to another property. 2. Protect Inventory For businesses that have onsite inventory, security systems that include surveillance cameras...
