Taking steps to secure your small business

If you manage a small business, you may think that setting up a security system will not be worth dipping into your finances. But once you experience theft, you'll be looking at the best security solutions to add to your premises.
Don't wait until your company is a victim of theft, organise comprehensive security for your business now!
A security investment now, can save you from hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars in missing stock, equipment and damage.
There are three steps you can take to secure your business: implementing access control, CCTV and business alarms.

Access control
If you want to increase security and safety in your work building, you may want to consider getting an access control system installed.
This security measure can help to control who walks in and out of your workplace, with employees to make use of access cards, key fobs, remotes or finger scanners to enter.
Access control may also help to decrease the probability of theft, with only authorised staff able to enter the area.

CCTV
CCTV is an effective security solution to have installed for your small business. The footage captured by the cameras can be useful for police evidence if your company is a victim of theft.
The cameras may also act as a deterrent to any thieves staking out your business. Some of these CCTV security systems can also be monitored from the convenience of your smartphone, so that you can check on your premises wherever you are.
There isn't a one-size-fits-all solution with CCTV, however systems are able to be tailored to your space and budget.

Business alarms
For extra security in your small business, add a business alarm to your CCTV and/or access control systems.
Business alarms can help to alert you to any potential break-ins or disturbances, scare off any would-be thieves and prevent items from being stolen or damaged.

Do Wireless Alarms Need Wi-Fi?

Wireless alarm systems will not require Wi-Fi , at least not to communicate with its wireless components. The only time a wireless alarm would need Wi-Fi  is if it reports back to an app on a customer’s smartphone, to alert them of an intrusion or to allow them to arm and disarm the system remotely. For the system to properly talk with its wireless components , it would require a receiver. In some instances this receiver can be built into the main control panel, but more often than not it is a separate device that must be wired in.  This receiver uses RF frequencies to communicate with each wireless device, which will have a wireless transmitter inside.  These wireless devices have the same function as their hard wired options, for example a wireless detector is able to detect movement the same way a wired detector will.  The difference is how it transmits this signal back to the panel.  The hard wired detector creates an open circuit when it detects movement, tripping the alarm ins
