Did you know that in the United States a burglary that occurs every 12 seconds? This can account for almost $3.4 billion in property damage and personal loss annually. When it comes to protecting your business, installing a perimeter security system may be the way to go.
Perimeter security systems are a great way to keep your business, employees and customers safe and protected. With your specific security needs in mind, there are multiple benefits to installing a security system to the perimeter of your business.
You may be asking yourself just what these specific benefits are. Will your business truly reap the benefits of a perimeter security system?
Here are 5 ways your business can benefit from a perimeter security system:
- Deter Crime
- Save on Insurance
- Customer Safety & Satisfaction
- Sync With Your Access Control System
- Employee Safety & Satisfaction
Deter Crime
Part of your perimeter security system may include a perimeter gate. These gates are tall, sturdy, and completely line your property. This can limit entry points in areas that work best for you and your business.
Reducing the amount of entry points onto your property makes it much more difficult for intruders to gain access without your permission. The durability and the size of the gate will not only make it difficult to scale, but, often the presence of a gate and other perimeter security devices indicates to potential burglars that your business is heavily secured. This will generally deter crime before it can even begin, keeping your business safe from outside threats.
Save on Insurance
As a business owner, you’re probably well aware of business insurance costs– especially the high costs of insurance that can come when a crime has been committed on your company property. When you choose to install a perimeter security system, your business can rest assured that crime will not grace the threshold of your business doors.
A perimeter security system may be just what your company needs to ensure crime is deterred. No crime means your insurance rates stay the same, and your business data, employees and facilities remain untouched.
Customer Safety & Satisfaction
Oftentimes, robberies can occur that target your customers rather than your business. If you’re a company that requires outside people to enter your facilities, you may want to invest in a perimeter security system.
You want your clients to feel comfortable and safe when they visit your business. Installing perimeter security can attract a considerable number of customers to your business– as they recognize you take their safety seriously. Increase customer satisfaction and retention by making their safety a top priority.
