Security Tips
Endorse Gruntledness
Gruntle and Be Gruntled. Gruntle Unto Others. Gruntle ‘til the Cows Come Home. Sounds like a great plan, doesn't it? All your past, present and future employees are perfectly Gruntled, right? Uh... right? Sorry to have to be an alarmist, but that's our job. The crazy truth is that ther is going to be a time when you WISH someone hadn't been able to just walk through that door. Maybe it happened already - remember the laptop that suddenly dropped out of inventory? Or the key no one can account for? Or that guy who just HAD to give the boss a piece of his mind on the way out?
TIP: A simple card access system can save a lot of scary moments wondering what will happen next.
We'll Leave a Light on for Ya'
You know that you're SUPPOSED to feel secure when you walk in the door - that's why you bought a security system, right? Then why does it feel so creepy? Could it be the fact that all the lights are off? Did you know a simple addition to your system can allow you to turn on lights before you walk in the door? We call it lighting integration; YOU call it... "ahhhhh!"
TIP: Remote Lighting Control de-creepifies of walking in the door.
But No One Lives at the Airport
Remember that old joke George Carlin did as Hal Sleet the Hippy Dippy Weatherman? "It's 68 degrees at the airport - which is pretty weird because I don't know anyone who lives at the airport!" You probably don't think its funny, however, when some disinterested Monitoring drone calls and says "zone 5 is in alarm." No, we don't know anyone who lives in Zone 5 either! Information is power, and one of our primary concerns at Capital Security is providing you with security INFORMATION. You would much rather know that the motion sensor in the foyer was activated - three times - than zone 5, right? Good - we knew you were on the ball!
TIP: All Monitoring Services were not created equal: choose wisely.
