You have invested time, money and energy into your business, so it makes sense to do whatever it takes to safeguard your investment. A robust business security system must include video surveillance.

Video surveillance allows you to capture in real time what is going on inside and outside your business. This footage can drastically reduce the damage done to your business by intruders or unexpected environmental events. It can also increase the likelihood that intruders will be recognized and arrested.

Honeywell’s Performance Series cameras records in high-resolution images in both low and strong light, making it ideal for both night and day monitoring. You can set the camera to turn on the infrared LEDs to activate when the light drops to a certain level. During the day, your Performance Series camera will take vivid color pictures. At night, the camera will record in clear black and white.

The Performance Series cameras are also vandal resistant, making them especially useful in high crime areas, where intruders may be tempted to destroy the camera. And because they are available in both indoor and outdoor models, you can use them cameras all around your business.

These cameras can be mounted on walls or ceilings, making them adaptable to various building configurations. They also come with 3 axis rotation. The easy installation combined with the low power consumption of these cameras (they contain flexible dual voltage options) make this a smart choice for business owners who are serious about protecting their business investments.

If you already have a security system installed in your business, these cost-effective cameras may require no additional rewiring. They are compact, consist of just one piece and install quickly and easily.

Honeywell has taken the humble doorbell to a whole new level. Because you want to protect what matters most, anything you can do to improve your home security is important. The SkyBell Video Doorbell turns the doorbell into a major, high-tech addition to your home security system.

No matter where you are in the world, you can keep an eye on your home with the SkyBell.

How it works:

When someone comes to your door, the SkyBell can alert you of their presence, and they do not even have to ring the doorbell to trigger the alert! The SkyBell will send high-definition video as well as audio to your iPhone or iPad. You may then have a conversation with the visitor, via SkyBell and your device.

SkyBell also has full color night vision. This means even if you have a visitor after dark, you will still be able to view the video of the visitor in color HD. And since SkyBell is an outdoor component of your home security system, Honeywell has made it tough enough to withstand harsh weather conditions. SkyBell functions fine in temperature extremes between -40 degrees F to 140 degrees F.

There are other features of SkyBell that make it convenient to use. SkyBell is always turned on, so whether someone is at your door or not, you can turn on a live video feed anytime you want. This is great for those times you are away from home and want to check in to see how things are going in your absence.

Finally, with SkyBell, you can turn off the indoor chime and instead receive alerts and notifications on your iPhone or iPad. This is perfect for when others are sleeping in your home or do not want to be bothered by the sound of the doorbell.

We would love to schedule a consultation with you, to help you determine what is best for your home security needs. Give us a call at 1-800–988–2378 or send us an email at sales@bestsecurityproducts.com

There are lots of ways to make your business less vulnerable to intrusion: securing doors and windows, installing an alarm system, keeping landscaping trimmed back, adding motion detectors, organizing a neighborhood watch and setting up adequate lighting both inside and outside.

There is one way, however, that can help catch a thief after he has burglarized a business: high quality security cameras.

Even the best defenses fail occasionally. Doors get kicked in, alarm systems may malfunction and in spite of the best lighting and observant neighbors, intruders sometimes make it into businesses and steal from them.

It is at these times that you need a backup system: a way of identifying the intruder after the fact. Security cameras can help with this.

But it is important to realize not all security cameras are created equal. Even if you have a security camera installed and running during an intrusion, if the resolution is so low that the intruder cannot be identified, it will not help you solve the crime.

However, a high quality, high resolution camera can record details of the burglars face and clothing so that it may aid authorities in identifying and arresting the thief.

This is what happened in a robbery case in Chicago¹. According to this report, a man accused of robbing salons was caught on camera and later identified based on his clothing. Click here for the article and to see an image of the man’s sweatshirt – which is what he was wearing when arrested.

Do you have surveillance cameras installed in your business? If you do, do they take clear images – clear enough to be used to identify intruders should you be the victim of a break in?
