You have opened up your business to make money.
You have spent a lot of your time, resources and efforts on procuring expensive equipment and installing necessary infrastructure. In simple words, your office has lots of expensive items that need safety.
Therefore, having the necessary security systems installed at your office will allow you to rest assured when you lock up each night and head home.
On top of this, by installing the necessary security systems in your office, your employees won’t feel insecure if they are burning the midnight oil on any given day. It will also allow you to retain talent and thereby push the productivity factor of your office by many folds.
What type of security systems are considered as ‘must-haves’ in a typical office setting?
Well, they are as follows –
Call button systems
You should install call button systems in your private chamber and each cubicle of your employees. This is a pretty effective way when it comes to enhancing the security of your office. When the button is pressed, the authorities or the on-site security teams are notified silently thereby keeping the perpetrator in the dark and giving the authorities the minimum time they need to arrive on-site and manage the situation.
For instance, if a visitor, while having a private conversation with you in your private chamber, suddenly snaps and starts acting violently, you can use the call button system to notify the office security team or the authorities.
In another scenario, if the security threat comes from one among your team members after he or she has been having a tough week and the person snaps, any one of the remaining members in your workforce can press the call button and alert the on-site security team to mitigate the threat.
Convincing, right?
CCTV surveillance systems
Okay, installing CCTV surveillance cameras is the part and parcel of modern-day office spaces. Hence, you should not think twice before installing one in your office.
With that stated, invest in a wireless system that can stream video feeds through the internet and has PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom) cameras in it.
Furthermore, investing in a CCTV system and a call button system will allow you to catch perpetrators in the act and offer the video feed as evidence so that when they are caught and prosecuted, the case against them will be rock-solid.
Get the point?
ACS (Access Control System)
Investing in an Access Control System is the winner’s way especially when you want to keep the important spaces in your office safe from unauthorized entry.
Then, issue ID badges to your employees so that if they need access to a restricted area, their activity will be logged into the ACS database. Hence, in case of a breach in security or loss of business-critical data/property, you can find out who did it and when.
Irrespective of the security systems you have chosen to install in your office, always hire a renowned, experienced, and reputed company that offers security solutions for offices and commercial properties. Ensure that the service provider is accredited, recognized, and has all the necessary paperwork that labels them as a ‘legitimate business. Furthermore, ensure that the company installs security systems and related security solutions that are manufactured by renowned brands. Keep all of these in mind for the best ROIs and immediate results.
