Warehouse CCTV System Installation – Complete Warehousing Cameras

Why Having Warehouse CCTV is Necessary

Warehouses as we know act as a control room of the supply chain that contains valuable goods, sensitive materials and necessary equipment.

Because of the large volumes of goods stored within them, warehouses are a prime target target for criminals. While the threats from outside are concerning, they are only one among many kinds of security risks faced by warehouses, from internal theft to operational inefficiencies. A great way to manage your security and keep an eye on the staff, goods or equipment access in Open Frame Racks is with installing an effective CCTV system

UK CCTV Installations specialise in providing industry-leading CCTV installation to all types of small, medium, large and industrial warehouses. Working to prevent theft while also improving safety and productivity, their installations in warehouses are carried out by more than 90 teams nationwide.

So why do warehouses need CCTV, and is it really worth the cost? Here’s everything you need to know.

Benefits outweigh the cost

Enable deterrent: Well-positioned CCTV can deter theft, trespassing and vandalism to both the exterior of your warehouse as well as internally within it.
Stay on top of stock: prevent loss or damage as it enters and leaves the warehouse by monitoring through real-time tracking.
Safety: Track if employees are following safety compliance for stable working conditions.

KNOW THE WAREHOUSE STRUCTURE AND SECURITY NEEDS

Warehouses can have complex areas and each area of it can come with its own set of security issues. Whether you have large storage areas or active loading docks, it is important for your CCTV system to be strategically located depending on where the coverage needs lie.

1 – Perimeter and Access Points

The first line of defence you have for your warehouse is the perimeter, which consists of gates, fencing and external walls. The general rule is that entry points are areas with a lot of traffic and passageways for vehicles or people, so they are often the target locations.

Security Concerns:

People accessing the site by sneaking through gates or climbing over fences.
Steal of goods/assents out on non-activity hours.
Exterior Problems such as Arson, or Intrusion.

Solutions:

Put CCTV cameras on all entries and exits and in primary places like gates or parking spaces.
Gain complete visibility of all vehicles coming onto the site using automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technology, confirming that only authorised facility users gain access.
Enable 24/7 monitoring with real-time alerts to allow security teams monitor for any suspicious activity outside of normal business hours.

2 – Delivery Access and Dock Areas

Loading dock, an important part in the movement of goods in warehouse. However, they are equally prone to theft and logistical glitches.

Security Concerns:

Products lost or stolen, quantities miscounted during load and unload activity.
Large trucks, heavy equipment with lack of direction and fast moving vehicles creating safety hazards for employees.
Outside threats attacking during the nights when we might see little of any monitoring happening on its premise.

Solutions:

Mount PTZ cameras at locations that cover all activity on the dock and nearly any angle possible.
Have cameras with motion sensors for alerts of unusual activity when loading areas are not in operation.
Use video analytics to follow items and make sure inventory records are accurate, virtually eliminating theft.

3 – Storage and Inventory Areas

Main storage areas of a warehouse is usually the most vulnerable and it’s the most valuable, therefore it consequently becomes a prime target for theft.

Security Concerns:

Theft or internal staff are making mistakes with stock.
Hijack, Pilferage and Replaced Cases of High Value goods.
Fire or environmental hazards to inventory.

Solutions:

Deploy high-quality cameras in your warehouse storage locations for tracking every shelf, aisle and pallet.
Leverage AI-based CCTV systems, enabling automation of the identification of suspicious behaviour (eg Unauthorised access to high-value inventory).
Making sure you have remote accessibility to the system so your warehouse managers can manage inventories even when they are not in the office.

4 – Administrative / Warehouse Offices

There may be offices in the warehouse that have valuable paperwork and goods, necessitating security equally as provided in storage areas.

Security Concerns:

Access to private data and office automation without proper access rights.
In the course of a break-in / mischief in unobserved professional areas.
The risk of data breaches.

Solutions:

Monitor all accesses and hallways in office areas by employing indoor CCTV cameras.
Integrate closed-circuit television (CCTV) network with access control systems so that only authorised personnel can enter these controlled areas.
Safely store footage to the cloud, so your most sensitive recordings won’t get stolen or tampered with.

5. Parking & Vehicle Access Areas

A warehouse typically includes big parking zones for both employees, transport trucks and delivery vehicles.

Security Concerns:

Vehicle thefts or vandalism in the parking area.
Unauthorised vehicles come and go without warning.
Wrong parking that may interrupt in smooth running of operations.

Solutions:

Fix ANPR cameras to all vehicle access areas, registering each car coming in or going out.
Wide-angle CCTV cameras should be installed over the parking areas, covering a broad area to minimise blind spots.
