Tired of Break-Ins? Why Live Video Monitoring Is a Game-Changer for Edmonton Warehouses
Live Video Monitoring Solves What Traditional Security Can’t
If you own or manage a warehouse or logistics yard in the Edmonton area, you already know the risks: theft, vandalism, unauthorized access, and costly downtime. The harsh reality is that traditional security systems—like motion-activated cameras or overnight guards—just don’t cut it anymore.
Live video monitoring is changing the game by offering real-time visibility and proactive response before damage is done.
“We were dealing with weekly yard theft and slow response times from our old security company. Switching to live monitoring with Austin Security stopped the problem almost overnight.”
— Logistics Manager, Leduc, AB
Why Warehouses Are Switching to Live Monitoring
Here’s what makes live video monitoring a smarter solution for warehouse and logistics businesses:
Real-Time Intervention
Unlike standard CCTV systems that only record footage, live monitoring uses trained operators to watch your site in real-time. If someone jumps a fence or loiters near your loading bays, our agents can issue a live warning and contact police immediately.
Smarter Coverage for Large Yards
Warehouses often have blind spots traditional systems can’t see. Our custom surveillance setups use high-definition cameras and thermal analytics to cover perimeter fencing, gates, truck lots, and even rooftop access points.
Lower Costs Than Security Guards
Hiring guards to patrol your property 24/7 is expensive—and many fall short on consistency or performance. Live video monitoring works around the clock without breaks or missed shifts, at a fraction of the cost.
Fast Response Without False Alarms
Our operators verify each event before alerting authorities, meaning no false alarms, no wasted police resources, and no fines for your business.
“We used to get two or three false alarms a month. Since switching to Austin Security, we haven’t had a single one—and police arrived in minutes when we actually had an incident.”
