Despite the critical importance, finding the best cameras for facilities can be challenging.

Learn more about finding the best security camera system for warehouses at an upcoming webinar.

If you are looking for warehouse cameras, you'll need to consider a few different features, including:

  • Ease of use: With ongoing staff shortages, you don't have time to ensure that your staff takes a multi-hour course on using a security system. Any camera system has to be intuitive and easy to use.
  • Seamless installation: Installation needs to be easy for any security system. It should ensure that you can quickly take advantage of the benefits cameras for warehouses may offer. Speed of installation is particularly important in today's business environment or if you are facing ongoing security or workflow challenges at your business.
  • Easy maintenance: If a camera is down, it can cause major business problems. Systems should be of the highest quality and easy to maintain, ensuring that you constantly see the benefits they offer. 
  • Ongoing and dedicated support: You need a vendor that does more than just install a system and walk away. Any security system should provide ongoing technical support and be available to answer questions. Furthermore, you need a system that can be constantly upgraded to meet new challenges and needs.
  • AI Insights: Staff needs to understand how to use any security system, but you need one that can  generate valuable insights and data. AI-based systems can give you information that humans may have missed. 

When used appropriately, such security cameras can significantly benefit your warehouse. Remember that these benefits extend well beyond any security advances. If you can install your cameras properly and augment your system with the latest in AI-based insights, you can use your cameras to enhance the operation efficiency of your entire operation. When deployed appropriately, security cameras can monitor staff performance and assist in logistical efforts, making these cameras a must-have for your business.

When installing a warehouse camera system, you may immediately think of the difficulties and complications that may occur during the installation process. Will you need a professional security camera installation? How much will this warehouse camera system cost you?

Indeed, with proper support, camera downtime can be invaluable in helping you identify potential holes in your camera system. 

Using a Warehouse Security System

Different warehouse security systems require various security features to maximize the protection of staff and goods within your business. There are multiple types of industrial security systems that you can use, each with its own component parts, including:

  • Security cameras
  • Access control for restricting access
  • Customized inventory systems
  • Scanning of employees as they enter and exit the premises

Keep in mind that the best warehouse security system will not rely solely on one modality. Warehouse security best practice guidelines require engagement with multiple types of warehouse security. Furthermore, ensuring the best safety and security in warehouses means integrating these systems. 

This reality brings up a few critical points.

First, how can you integrate such a system? How can you ensure that the various types of warehouse security work together harmoniously and create a comprehensive security system? The answer is an open camera system. An open system is brand-agnostic and allows for the incorporation and management of any type of system from one central location.

An open system can only work if you can integrate workflows. Integration of workflows refers to ensuring that data can be accessed and monitored from a centralized location, as well as managing that data. Can you use one centralized workflow to monitor environmental sensors? Watch security footage? Use that integrated workflow to control who can access said footage and manage safety from any location? At Spot AI, we've worked with outside contractors to create these capabilities. In doing so, we've created a robust security system that you can use.
