Although parking facilities are designed and built as a necessity rather than a primary destination, they need adequate parking security solutions. Of course, you need sufficient parking space to attract visitors and accommodate employees, but the security of that space has long term implications. If people fear that their cars will be broken into and their valuables stolen, it will harm the reputation of your business in direct and indirect ways. If employees have laptops and important documents stolen, that is a direct harm to your business. Crimes like robbery, assault, and vandalism are all less likely to happen if you install a proper security system and take precautions.<\/p>\n
As with any security system, its success depends on functioning layers of technology, strategy, and diligence.<\/p>\n<\/div>
Commercial parking garages tend to be low-tech from a structural standpoint. It\u2019s a lot of concrete and paint, right? That\u2019s also why it requires extra forethought to integrate your security system into the design of the garage. Here are some of the technological components that should be included in any parking garage security system.<\/p>\n<\/div>
If you require authorized access to your parking garage, such as paid or permitted parking, then you need to monitor points of access and exit using kiosks and swingarms or barriers. By requiring people to take a ticket or scan their access badge, you can monitor who is using the garage and when. This can help you flag unusual behavior such as someone who normally parks according to a schedule and suddenly changes that pattern.<\/p>\n
