Workplace Security: Overlooked Property Weaknesses

Written by General Security | Jul 25, 2025 3:30:00 PM

Business owners often miss critical security gaps that leave their property vulnerable to break-ins, theft, and workflow disruptions. Some of the weakest spots are the entry points.

Vulnerable Entry Points

Every business property security system is only as strong as its most vulnerable access point. Unfortunately, many business owners focus on obvious threats while neglecting the subtle gaps that criminals actively exploit.

  1. Door security gaps are the most common oversight. Standard commercial doors with basic locks do not provide the best protection against forced entry. The better solutions are access control systems with keycard entry or smart locks.
  2. Upper-floor windows, basement access points, and skylights often lack adequate video surveillance coverage. Criminals frequently target these overlooked areas where there are no security cameras or motion sensors.
  3. Loading docks, employee entrances, and parking areas are prime targets for theft and vandalism. Is your commercial security system monitoring these gate and perimeter weaknesses?
Security After Business Hours

Workplace security threats are present around the clock. Remote monitoring capabilities become essential when employees and bosses head home.

 

Your alarm system should have 24/7 monitoring and real-time alerts for unusual activity and potential threats. This enables your security service to address threats before they escalate.

 

Video analytics technology now offers intelligent threat detection, distinguishing between normal employee movement and suspicious behavior. These smart security systems can automatically trigger responses when unauthorized individuals attempt to access restricted areas, both during and after work hours.
