Many business and residential security systems include cameras you can have placed around your property. Many people use these cameras to watch the entryway to the home, to record what happens at the cash register, or to cover areas of the property that are poorly lit and could be a target for thieves. Here are a few other benefits to using video surveillance systems other than the obvious use of catching criminals.
Check up on Your Children
If your children get home from school before you do, you can use your security system to make certain they get inside safely and do not leave. Many video surveillance systems allow you to view the camera feed from your computer, tablet, or smartphone, so you can know if they leave the home regardless of where you are.
See Who is at the Door
If you are home alone late at night and someone knocks on your door, you may want to see who it is before you let him or her know that you are home. If you look through a window, it’s possible you will be seen. However, you can use one of the top video surveillance systems in Salinas to see who it is from the safety of an interior room and decide if you want to open the door or not.
Monitor Your Employees
For a business, video surveillance systems can be useful if you suspect your employees are closing early or are stealing things from the company. A camera set up at the employee entrance can help you determine when people are leaving, while cameras around the supply cabinet or at the register can show you if someone is stealing supplies or trying to embezzle money. Having a recording of these activities provides you with evidence to use in firing the employee and in court cases.
