Warehouse Security Challenges in Perth

Industrial facilities face unique security risks that require specialized solutions beyond standard commercial security systems.

🚨

After-Hours Break-Ins

Warehouses are prime targets when unoccupied. Thieves target high-value inventory, equipment, and copper wiring during nights and weekends.

📦

Inventory Theft

Internal theft and stock shrinkage cost Australian warehouses millions annually. CCTV monitoring helps identify and prevent inventory loss.

🚪

Unauthorized Access

Large facilities with multiple entry points need controlled access management to track who enters restricted areas and when.

🚛

Loading Dock Vulnerabilities

Busy loading areas with constant truck traffic create blind spots and opportunities for theft during deliveries and pickups.

🔧

Equipment & Tool Theft

Forklifts, pallet jacks, power tools and warehouse equipment are valuable targets. GPS tracking and CCTV provide protection and recovery options.

⚡

Perimeter Breaches

Large outdoor storage areas and perimeters require surveillance coverage and alarm detection to prevent unauthorized entry.

Warehouse Security FAQs Perth

How many cameras does a warehouse need?

Camera requirements vary by warehouse size and layout. As a guide, small warehouses (1,000-3,000 sqm) typically need 8-12 cameras, medium warehouses (3,000-10,000 sqm) need 12-24 cameras, and large distribution centres (10,000+ sqm) may require 24-50+ cameras. We conduct a site assessment to determine optimal camera placement for complete coverage of entry points, aisles, loading docks, high-value inventory areas, and perimeter zones.

Can warehouse security systems integrate with existing infrastructure?

Yes, modern security systems integrate with warehouse management systems (WMS), inventory software, time & attendance systems, and building automation. We can connect CCTV to your existing network, link access control with payroll systems, and integrate alarms with monitoring centres. Our systems support industry-standard protocols (ONVIF, REST APIs) for seamless integration with most warehouse technologies.

What is the cost of warehouse security systems in Perth?

Warehouse security costs depend on facility size, coverage requirements, and system complexity. Basic systems for small warehouses start from $8,000-$15,000, mid-range installations for medium facilities cost $15,000-$40,000, and comprehensive enterprise systems for large distribution centres range from $40,000-$100,000+. This includes equipment, installation, configuration, and training. We provide detailed quotes after site assessment with transparent pricing and no hidden fees.

How long does warehouse security installation take?

Installation timeframes vary by project scope. Small warehouse systems (8-12 cameras, basic alarm) take 2-3 days. Medium facilities (12-24 cameras, access control, alarms) require 4-7 days. Large distribution centres with comprehensive systems need 1-3 weeks. We schedule installation to minimize operational disruption, working during low-activity periods or after hours if required. System commissioning and staff training typically add 1-2 days.

Do warehouse cameras work in low light and at night?

Yes, warehouse cameras are designed for 24/7 surveillance. We use cameras with infrared (IR) night vision providing clear footage up to 30-50 meters in complete darkness. For critical areas, we recommend ColorVu cameras with built-in LED lighting for full-colour night vision. Starlight cameras capture usable footage in very low ambient light. We design lighting and camera combinations to ensure clear, evidentiary-quality footage day and night.

Can I monitor my warehouse remotely from mobile devices?

Absolutely. All our warehouse systems include mobile apps for iOS and Android, allowing managers to view live cameras, receive instant alerts, manage access control, and review footage from anywhere. You can monitor multiple warehouse locations from a single app, receive push notifications for alarms or unusual activity, and grant/revoke access permissions remotely. The system works on any internet connection (Wi-Fi, 4G, 5G).
