Check with some local stereo shops to see if they offer this kind of upgrade package. If they don’t sell them, they might know who to send you to.

Video Surveillance For Car Dealerships
Car dealerships have expensive inventory, which makes them susceptible to theft. As such, video surveillance is a much need security measure for car dealerships. Vehicles depending on the make and model can run from a few thousand dollars to a few hundred thousand dollars. Many dealerships keep their inventory right out on their parking lots. This is a high level of exposure. The more prestigious the automobile the more susceptible it is to theft.
The Benefits Of Dealership Video Surveillance
Preventing Theft
Video surveillance cameras that are placed in different areas around lots help prevent thieves from stealing vehicles. They can also help identify car thieves.
Track Customers
Tracking customer’s habits can be valuable marketing data. If you combine the video with analytics, you can use this data to improve your profit potential.
Protect Building, Employees, And Customers
Surveillance cameras help to free up your employees. It allows them to perform other duties though it should not replace general vigilance.
Future Integration
Some larger dealerships may want to consider integration. A networked security system that uses internet protocol cameras or IP cameras are essential to any integration. An integrated security system at a dealership may include integrating the following:
. employee ID card timekeeping system
. security systems like doors, locks and Car Alarms
. building heating and air conditioning systems
Some Inherit Risks Of Video Surveillance
Privacy
Respecting privacy is important when implementing security measures. Be careful to only install security cameras in public places such a s the showroom or car lots. Refrain from placing video cameras in bathrooms or back rooms where people expect a certain measure of privacy.
Damage
Always monitor the condition of your surveillance cameras. A broken camera leaves you exposed. How do you know the thief didn’t break it? Simply having a camera up as a threat doesn’t guarantee the inventory is safe from theft. In this economy, thieves have become more daring. You don’t want to over rely on your video surveillance cameras either. They are meant to enhance security.
At Quick Cash Auto, a cash for car business in Long Island, New York, surveillance video led to the returning of some inventory of their own that was stolen from the lot. In broad daylight, a car thief found a way to sneak into the dealership’s office, where cameras were installed, and somehow lifted the keys to a Mercedes parked right outside on the lot. To make a long story short, the key theft was caught on video and it aired that evening on the Channel 12 News. The next day Quick Cash Auto received an anonymous phone call perhaps from the car thief himself stating the car was being returned and was parked right in the nearby area. Being on video must’ve scared him stiff because he returned the Mercedes the very next day!
Sometimes a determined car thief is a hard thing to beat but surveillance cameras can be an invaluable safety measure. It certainly was for Quick Cash Auto. The owner is making further upgrades to ensure the rest of the office is secure 100% of the time.
