Choosing security cameras and door access
Start with what you want to see
Before picking cameras, walk the property: entrances, registers, parking, loading doors, and storage. Good coverage of a few key spots beats lots of cameras pointed at the wrong places.
Built for Alaska weather
Outdoor cameras and door readers need to be rated for cold, snow, and long dark winters. Good night vision and proper weatherproofing matter more here than in most places.
Don't let cameras become the weak spot
Cheap cameras with default passwords are one of the most common ways attackers get into a network. Keep cameras on their own network, change default passwords, and keep their software updated.
Door access instead of keys
Key cards or phone-based entry let you add or remove access instantly when staff change, and show who came in and when — no re-keying locks.
