I own a contractor in the heart of the city, but i never actually thought about security purposes until theft started becoming a problem.
I then began hunting around for a security system, and there is so much out there.
There are security cameras, surveillance, real time footage, automated lights, building locks, & more. I decided that a building management system was undoubtedly for the best; What I was able to do was get an entire security network on a single hub. To start with I played around with the building access control. I got a card access system that only allows my employees after hour times. I then got integrated system installation in the facility. I have security cameras, motion detectors, lights, & an integrated Heating & Air Conditioning system all on a BMS pad. I can control everything from a single hub to decide what to do. I like that the security cameras now begin filing anytime they notice movement. I also have lights that brighten when people walk to display cases. It seems like it is just a convenience thing however it actually is to draw my workser attention to an section in case something is attempting to shoplift, but having security cameras all over the place has actually helped. The automated lights, door locks, & card access are a much better option than what I originally had to. When you have a commercial facility a commercial building automated system is actually for the best. You have total peace of mind & quite a boost in energy savings when you rely on it.
