Warehouse and Yard CCTV in Logan

Industrial sites need cameras at the gate that can identify vehicles at night, coverage of every dock and roller door, and footage kept for weeks.

Logan’s industrial areas

Logan’s industry is concentrated in a few places. Crestmead and Berrinba have large estates of warehouses and factory units near the Logan Motorway. Loganholme and Slacks Creek mix industrial units with trade and showroom sites along the Pacific Motorway corridor. Park Ridge, Meadowbrook and Beenleigh have their own pockets. Sites range from a single factory unit to large distribution centres.

The gate

Most theft from an industrial site leaves through the gate in a vehicle. A plate camera aimed at the spot where vehicles slow down, set up to cope with headlights and low light, gives you the registration of everything that comes and goes. A wide camera beside it shows the vehicle, its load and anyone on foot.

Docks and roller doors

Every loading dock and roller door gets a camera. Docks are where disputes about deliveries happen, and roller doors are the usual after-hours way in. Camera footage of a truck being loaded settles arguments about what was sent far faster than paperwork.

Inside: racking and dark corners

In high racked warehouses, cameras at the end of each aisle looking down its length cover far more than cameras scattered across the roof. Warehouse lights often go off after hours, so interior cameras are chosen for their low light performance.

Long perimeters

Big yards have fences that run hundreds of metres, and network cable only carries power and video for about 100 metres in a single run. Long perimeters get a network design before the quote: fibre between buildings, switches in weatherproof enclosures partway along the fence, or wireless links where there is line of sight.

Storage, access and security

Industrial systems usually record continuously for 30 to 90 days. Owners and managers get their own logins, and multiple sites can be viewed in one app. The camera network is kept separate from the business network, every default password is changed, and remote viewing runs without open router ports.

Deterrence for empty yards

A yard that should be empty at night suits active deterrence cameras. A person detected inside the fence after hours sets off strobes and a warning, and the alert reaches your phone at the same moment. During work hours, the schedule keeps them quiet.

Questions people ask

Can the cameras work with our gate or access control system?

Cameras record independently of gate and access control systems. Some combinations can be linked, for example to record a clip when a gate opens. We check what your equipment supports.

What happens if the network goes down?

Recording continues on the recorder. Only remote viewing stops until the connection is back.

Can we keep footage for 90 days?

Yes. It needs more storage, and larger recorders take several hard drives. The quote is sized to your retention period.
