Security Camera Installation for Warehouses & Distribution Centres

A 20,000 square foot unit with two dock doors usually needs 8 to 12 cameras. A 100,000 square foot distribution centre with a yard typically needs 30 to 50, and large facilities run into the hundreds. The count comes from the zones, not the square footage: one camera per dock door or pair, one fisheye per staging area, one per aisle or cross-aisle, face-height cameras at every door and plate capture at every gate.

Fisheye and multi-sensor cameras for open floors, 4K bullets for aisles and fence lines, WDR turrets at dock doors, a dedicated licence plate camera at each gate and PTZ with auto-tracking for large yards. We mostly install Uniview and Axis in warehouses because their housings, optics and analytics hold up at height and in dust.

We recommend at least 60 days and size most warehouse systems for 90. Carrier claims, shortage disputes and insurance investigations often surface weeks after the event, and with smart detection and larger drives 90 days is affordable.

Yes. We phase the work by zone, use lifts in aisles you release to us, schedule high mounts between shifts or at night, and bring each zone live before moving on.

Yes. We integrate with UniFi Access, ICT Protege, SALTO and Verkada, and link gate, door and intercom events to the matching video. For WMS or yard management systems we can map camera views to dock numbers so a dispute is a two-click search.

Mid-size warehouses with 16 to 32 cameras and gate plate capture usually land between $9,000 and $20,000 installed. Distribution centres with 48 to 100 cameras run $28,000 to $70,000 and are phased. The free site visit gives you a fixed written quote.
