A security system for your business provides greater peace of mind, lower insurance rates, and a safer working environment for you and your employees.

For small- or medium-sized businesses with minimal security needs, an off-the-shelf home alarm system may be sufficient. In fact, many small offices can likely get away with using off-the-shelf home security systems.




However, for companies with more extensive operations, a larger physical location, more employees, or high-value assets a more sophisticated commercial security system may be needed. These systems usually require professional installation and continuous monitoring and management.

Commercial security systems encompass a range of standalone or integrated configurations that perform one or more of these functions:
  • premises access control
  • video surveillance
  • fire, heat, water, and/or entry alarms
  • energy management of HVAC systems (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), control lighting, and power-on and -off and designated equipment
  • remote status alerts and management
The individual system or product package that performs these functions is sized according to the number of sensors required to control and monitor key points. If your sensor needs to exceed a given package's capacity, you must either move up to a higher-capacity, a higher-priced package, combine smaller packages, or reevaluate the number of sensors that are critical to protect your business assets
