Are You Giving Your Business the Protection It
Needs?
2

• Whatever type of business youre running,
  protecting your assets is a high priority, and
  only by paying close attention to security
  measures, are you able to truly protect them.
• With a burglary happening as often as every 26
  seconds in the USA, you need to ensure that your
  commercial property is as secure as it can
  possibly be, not just for your sake or that of
  your assets, but for your employees sake, too.
  With this in mind, here are a few of the simplest
  but most important ways to secure your business
  at all times

• Install high security locks on all doors
• This is your very first line of defense against
  criminals trying to gain unlawful entry to the
  building, and all external doors must lock fully
  and securely. If any of the locks have become
  worn or rusty, you should have them replaced at
  the earliest. If in doubt about the effectiveness
  of any of the locks at the property, seek
  guidance from a security expert such as a
  locksmith.

• Upgrade to an access control system
• These electronic systems are a great way of
  ensuring that only those who have permission to
  enter certain areas of the building, may do so,
  with the use of a code, fob or access card, and
  eliminate the issue of lost or stolen keys
  altogether.
• Store valuables in a high security safe
• For all high value documents or items, storing
  them in a safe especially when the building is
  empty is the most effective way of keeping them
  secure. To find out which type of commercial safe
  would best suit the needs of your particular
  business, call in to your local safe showroom or
  talk to a licensed locksmith about your options.

• Install security cameras
• With cameras strategically positioned both inside
  and outside of the premises, you can not only
  record all suspicious or illegal activity in and
  around your business, but in many instances,
  cameras can act as a deterrent for criminals,
  too.
• Install motion sensor security lights
• Illuminating all entrances and vulnerable areas
  of your commercial premises is a great way of
  preventing it from becoming a target of crime. If
  you dont want a light left on at all times
  during the hours of darkness, consider motion
  sensor lights instead, which will illuminate the
  area when movement is detected within their range.

6

• Maintain the property
• By trimming all bushes, trees and shrubs that
  might be obscuring doors and windows to the
  building, you can ensure that criminals have
  nowhere to hide, and by repairing all potential
  security concerns as soon as they are spotted
  such as fixing locks, lights and doors you can
  make the building far more difficult for anyone
  trying to get inside it without permission.
• Your business deserves a high level of
  protection, and if youre concerned that security
  levels arent quite as high as they should be,
  consult with a local security expert at the
  earliest opportunity.
