Systems for monitoring and recording activity in various commercial contexts, including retail stores, office buildings, warehouses, and public places, are commercial video surveillance systems. Businesses should take into account aspects including the size of the area to be monitored, the required level of security, and the desired features when choosing a commercial video surveillance system. Consulting with security professionals and system integrators like Nexlar Security can help businesses make informed decisions and design an effective surveillance system tailored to their needs.
2. A commercial surveillance system will
help your business from theft, intrusion,
illegal entry, fire, or flood. Before you
select the right surveillance systems,
think about your business areas that
need protecting, what types of cameras
you want, and how many days of
recording time you will need. The main
types of surveillance cameras are analog
and internet protocol (IP).
3. Factors to consider before purchasing a
video commercial surveillance system:
• Pricing
• Installation
• Type of Storage
• Type of Camera
• What Features You Want
• Which Areas of Your Business
Need Protection
4. What storage do you need?
Do you need local storage, or can you store footage off-site? If you
choose onsite storage, you’ll need to factor in the cost of the system
and the space required to store video. Off-site storage may be more
expensive, but it can be more convenient if you don’t have the space
to store footage onsite.
You’ll also need to decide how long you need to keep the footage.
Some systems only store footage for a few days or weeks, while
others can store it for months or years. The amount of storage you
need will depend on how often you plan to review the footage and
how long you need to keep it.
5. What type do you want?
There are three main types of video surveillance systems: analog, digital, and IP.
Analog systems are the oldest and most basic type of surveillance system. They
use a coaxial cable to transmit the video signal from the camera to a recorder or
monitor. Digital systems are more advanced than analog, and they use digital
signals instead of analog signals. IP systems are the most advanced type of
surveillance system. They use Internet Protocol to send video signals over a
network. This allows for more flexibility and easier installation.
Our wired and wireless cameras capture images in a higher resolution and
enable automatic alerts, video analytics, and other advanced functions.
6. Installation and size of your property
If you have a small business, you can get away with installing a DIY
security camera system by yourself, but even then, it’s a considerable
risk. Larger companies, on the other hand, with a large area of
coverage and complicated setups, should have a professional do the
installation.
With our professional installation service, we take the hassle out of
getting your new roof installed quickly and efficiently so you can start
enjoying your new systems with a wide field of view as soon as
possible. Contact us today to get started.
7. Customization
It is important to note that not all security system providers perform
customizations. It is essential to work with a security partner that
does video surveillance system installations, customizations, repairs,
and maintenance. Each business is different, so it’s crucial to find a
system that can be customized to fit your unique needs.
Nexlar offers a high degree of customization. Our technicians can
tailor a system to your property’s needs. Do you need a widespread
system to cover multiple locations? Are you looking to watch only your
storefront? We can help.
