Ensuring Security with Regular CCTV and Lighting Checks
CCTV and strategic lighting are key to a secure storage facility. To ensure consistent coverage:
• Camera Placement and Focus: Review camera placements at least once a month to make sure there’s clear visibility for high-traffic and vulnerable areas like entrances, exits, and secluded spaces.
• Night Vision Functionality: Test your cameras’ night vision by viewing footage after dark to verify they’re capturing details clearly.
• Lighting Schedules: Use Sentinel’s lighting control to activate lights only when needed. This not only saves energy but also signals activity, discouraging unauthorised access. Motion-activated lighting near doors is ideal for maximising coverage.
Best Practice: Conduct a thorough CCTV and lighting check at the start of each month. Use the Sentinel app to adjust and monitor remotely for efficient management.
