Reasons to invest in a security system for your business

When it comes to the safety of your business you don’t want to be cutting corners. Especially as burglaries against businesses are estimated to be £2bn which makes up 40% of the costs of crime.  So whether your business is a shop, in an office block or a warehouse here are just a few of the reasons to invest in a security system for your business!

Protects against burglaries!

This one may seem obvious but having a security system in place can help deter burglars from committing theft at your business. And even if a burglar does commit a crime there is an increased chance of catching them in the act.

Lower the risk of vandalism

Having problems with graffiti or tagging? Vandalism is a common crime against businesses in the UK and having a working security system can help prevent it. The Primguard security system alerts you the minute an intruder enters the property so they are stopped before they commit the crime. And research shows that CCTV cameras have been proven to reduce the levels of violence and vandalism at business.

Peace of Mind

Business premises are often left unattended on an evening but with a security system, you have 24/7 protection even when you aren’t there. If the worst happened and a crime took place a Primguard system would notify you immediately due to the real-time monitoring. That means you can sleep soundly knowing your business is protected.

Reduce your insurance

Installing a security system often leads to insurance companies giving rower rates. Which in turn could lead to massive savings for your business. Contact your insurance company for more information

Safety of employees

Protecting your staff members is a very important reason to invest in a security system for your business. Not only can it protect them from physical harm in a burglary but against negative interactions with customers and harassment.

In 2018 research by the UK Government found that over 30 thousand crime incidents had occurred per 1000 business premises in 2018 alone and with businesses being 4 times more likely to be targeted than a home a security system is worth having.
