Don’t let your dealership fall victim to criminal behavior. Dealerships not being actively monitored are at risk of theft and vandalism. A lack of car dealership security may mean a lack of profitability.
From immature teens to hotwiring attempts, hooligans cause damage
Millions of dollars in inventory left on an open lot creates risk
Property damage, stolen inventory, and stolen parts are costly
Protect your property after hours without sacrificing customer experience
Get swift 911 dispatch without triggering false alarms
Scare away trespassers before crime happens, with audio and visual deterrents
High sales volume leads to high profitability – when you have the inventory to sell. Protecting it is a top priority for dealers of both luxury or economy vehicles. The cost of video surveillance monitoring is nothing compared to the potential cost to replace cars or repair property damage.
Concerned about cost?
Keep everyone honest with footage that fully documents anything that happens on the property. This technology gives dealerships the tools they need to fight false claims in the service bay and any accidents that may happen on the lot. The footage below captured an incident on one of our customer’s lots which protected them from damage costs.
Catalytic converters can be removed in two minutes or less with only a wrench. Then metal recycle centers buy them for up to $200 per converter! More and more thieves are taking advantage of this, causing the number of reported catalytic converter thefts to increase every year.
With auto dealership security systems, perimeter security can help but it isn’t enough to assure that your vehicles and property are protected. A full suite of security cameras and remote video monitoring are part of comprehensive solutions which will cover your entire lot.
Imagine the power of combining AI video surveillance and real humans who can identify suspicious activity.
We see less instances of vandalism with our inventory on the lot… I would recommend their services to a dealer who is in a high volume area like we are and has a high volume of vandalism but doesn’t want their lot to look like a fortress.
