Car yards hold millions of dollars in exposed inventory across large open lots. Adelaide dealerships face theft, vandalism, joy-riding, parts stripping, and catalytic converter theft — often overnight when the yard is unmanned.
New and used vehicles sitting on open lots are targets for organised theft rings. Perimeter cameras with number plate recognition capture entry and movement across the yard after hours.
Catalytic converter theft has surged across Adelaide. Yards with vehicles parked in rows are easy targets. Motion-activated cameras and perimeter alarms provide early detection.
Overnight damage to paintwork, windows, and interiors costs dealers thousands in repairs. Visible CCTV and perimeter detection deter casual vandals and opportunistic intruders.
A stolen key means a stolen car. Key safes and key management cabinets with audit trails ensure every key is accounted for and access is logged by individual staff member.
Fraudulent test drives and driver substitution scams occur regularly. CCTV at the handover point and licence capture at reception create a clear record of every vehicle departure.
Customer disputes over pre-existing damage, scope of work, and parts replacement are common. Service bay cameras provide timestamped evidence of vehicle condition at intake and completion.
We design systems that cover the full dealership footprint — from the front lot to the service workshop, showroom floor to parts department. Every camera is positioned for maximum coverage of the large open areas typical of Adelaide car yards.
A typical Adelaide dealership holds $2-10 million in vehicle inventory sitting on an open lot. Unlike retail stock behind locked doors, this inventory is visible and physically accessible 24 hours a day.
Our perimeter CCTV systems use long-range cameras with infrared illumination to cover entire yard boundaries, with motion alerts sent directly to your phone or monitoring centre when movement is detected after hours.
Book a Yard AssessmentFranchise dealerships with showrooms, service departments, parts storage, and large display lots along Adelaide's auto precincts.
Independent used car lots with open-air display, minimal fencing, and high-turnover inventory requiring flexible camera coverage.
Workshop bays, customer drop-off areas, and parts storage facilities with tool and equipment security requirements.
Vehicle holding yards with high turnover, multiple access points, and the need for condition documentation on arrival and departure.
We walk the full site — lot boundaries, showroom, service bays, parts department, and office areas — to identify coverage gaps and high-risk zones.
Long-range yard cameras, close-range entry cameras, and perimeter beam sensors are mapped to your site plan with clear coverage diagrams.
Cameras are mounted on poles, building facades, and existing structures. Cabling is run cleanly to avoid interference with vehicle movement and customer areas.
Perimeter alarms, showroom sensors, and duress buttons are connected to your monitoring service with tested response procedures.
Sales, service, and management staff are trained on the system — arming procedures, mobile app access, footage retrieval, and incident protocols.
Full system documentation including camera coverage maps, alarm zone schedules, and installation certificates for your insurer.
A mid-sized Adelaide dealership typically needs 16-32 cameras depending on lot size, building layout, and whether the service department is included. We design to your specific site rather than selling fixed packages.
Yes. We use long-range infrared cameras rated to 80-100 metres, supplemented by existing yard lighting. For very large lots, we add infrared illuminators to eliminate dark spots.
Dedicated ANPR cameras at entry and exit driveways capture every plate, day and night. This creates a searchable log of every vehicle that enters or leaves the premises.
Yes. You get mobile app access to view live cameras, replay recordings, and receive motion alerts. Dealer principals can check the yard at any time from anywhere.
