What retail premises need covered
The entrance, the till, the shop floor or seating, and the stock room. Those four cover most of what a retail business needs.
The till camera is the one owners get the most use from. It records transactions, cash handling and any dispute at the point of sale, which are the everyday issues in retail rather than dramatic incidents.
Entrance and shopfront
A camera at the entrance records everyone coming in and out, and in busy trading streets a camera facing the shopfront also picks up anything that happens just outside the door. That is useful where the pavement in front of the unit is busy.
Restaurants, cafes and food outlets
Food outlets add the kitchen and the seating area. Kitchen cover is used for both security and operational reasons. Seating cover handles disputes about service and any incident among customers.
Stock rooms and back of house
Stock loss is frequently internal rather than from customers. A camera covering the stock room door and the storage area addresses that, and is often the reason an owner calls us in the first place.
Multiple branches on one system
If you run several units, they can be joined so you view them all from one login. For owners with shops in different parts of the city, this is far more practical than checking several separate systems.
Working around trading hours
Most retail units cannot close for an installation. Tell us your quieter periods when requesting the quote so the work can be planned with less disruption where practical.
Common questions
Can I watch the shop from home?
Yes. Remote viewing gives you live and recorded access from your phone from anywhere.
Can staff see the cameras?
That depends how you want it set up. Access can be limited to the owner or extended to a manager. We configure it as you want.
Can you cover several shops on one system?
Yes. Multiple branches can be viewed from one place.
Will you need to close the shop?
Normally no. We plan the work around your trading pattern.
