Now that the weather is warming up, many businesses are looking to get a jump start on outdoor maintenance and indoor remodeling. Spring is a time to start fresh, and offices, retail stores, churches and schools alike are looking to dive head first into “spring cleaning” and get started upgrades that were postponed during the winter.
Over the next few months, many facilities will see an influx of visitors, vendors and contractors. While most will be reputable and trustworthy, it’s important to take precautions and implement security measures to combat the criminals that are out to take advantage of you and your business.
Sonitrol’s managed access control systems help provide that necessary layer of security for your business right at the front door. Providing visitors with restricted temporary badges allows you to control their movements within your facility.
Making changes to access levels or deactivating lost cards is simple and convenient, either by signing into MySonitrol or calling our 24/7 staffed local Central Station. This cost-effective approach saves you both time and money without the hassle of replacing door locks as a result of lost or stolen keys.
Be sure to check the ID and credentials of vendors and contractors, including technicians doing routine work and professionals who are on premises on a one-time basis. Review licenses and check references as an extra security prevention measure.
Home improvement and construction scams are frequent problems, especially during the spring. Be alert in the workplace, as businesses are just as vulnerable to questionable and unreliable offers as homeowners.
Take precautions to secure your facility from unwanted visitors and dishonest contractors. The first step is to contact the Sonitrol Tri County team for solutions designed specifically for your facility. We’ve got a breadth of options that meet your budget and your business.
