Let’s get into the FIVE key reasons in further detail below…

Deter Theft and Vandalism
Criminals and potential intruders are far less likely to target your business if you have CCTV systems professionally installed. It’s no secret that CCTV acts as a deterrent for thousands of businesses in the North West and helps prevent shoplifting, break-ins, and other criminal activity. Many North West towns have reported rising incidents of commercial theft in recent years. Investing in CCTV can reduce your risk significantly.
24/7 Monitoring – Even When You’re Off-Site
Modern CCTV systems, supplied and installed by trusted security companies just like Lookout Fire & Security Solutions, allow for real-time remote monitoring, giving you eyes on your business from anywhere via your smartphone, tablet or laptop. Whether you’re away on a lengthy business trip, conference or family holiday, you’ll gain complete peace of mind knowing that you can still monitor activity from your chosen device(s). 24/7 monitoring is ideal whether you’re managing multiple sites.
Protect Your Employees and Customers
As well as being excellent for protecting your property, CCTV systems for businesses like yours are excellent for protecting employees and customers alike. Employees often feel safer within the workplace knowing that the premises are well-monitored with 24/7 surveillance. This is particularly applicable for warehouse workers or these working late night shifts. Because of their confidence in your security systems, this can often boost overall morale and productivity.
Meet Insurance Requirements
As part of their policy terms, some insurance companies require CCTV and this is especially true in high-risk industries. Moreover, installing high-quality and professional CCTV systems for your business may also result in lower insurance premiums. This is because it shows your obvious commitment to proactive risk management. Therefore, it’s safe to say that proceeding with CCTV can actually help with long-term savings which can result in significant long-term savings.
Scalable Security for Growing Businesses
Many security system installers, just like Lookout Fire & Security Solutions, offer scalable CCTV systems meaning you can start with a few key cameras and expand as your business grows.
