Top 3 Security Deterrents for Businesses

Shuretech • 30 January 2020
As a business owner, ensuring that your assets are secure is an essential part of running your operation. With a significant number of burglaries targeting businesses, if your premises isn’t completely secure, you could become a victim. 

A large part of securing a property is to invest in security essentials that not only make it infinitely more difficult to access your building but also to act as an effective deterrent against crime. Luckily, business owners have a range of options to choose from when it comes to deterring criminals from targeting your premises. With this in mind, here are the top three essential security deterrents your business needs.

CCTV
If you’re looking to both deter criminals and make it easier to catch them in the unfortunate event of a burglary, CCTV is a must have for businesses. As a deterrent, CCTV is especially effective as it works in two different ways.

For starters, you will need to put up signs highlighting areas that are under surveillance, making would-be criminals aware they are being filmed. Also, by having your CCTV systems viewable, burglars will actively avoid those spaces in order to try to stay out of sight. 

Security grilles & shutters
As security grilles and shutters are designed to withstand ranged attacks on your property, such as a brick being thrown, they act as a pretty visible deterrent as well as an excellent way of protecting business fronts and other private areas. 

Alarms
Much like CCTV cameras, an alarm system can be an excellent way of deterring criminals. Some property owners will even invest in fake alarms to give off the impression that their building is protected in order to save money. However, for the best protection, the real thing is always going to be the best option.
