Security Systems for Adelaide Manufacturing Facilities

Perimeter protection, interior CCTV, and access control designed for factories, production plants, and industrial facilities across Adelaide's manufacturing precincts.

Security challenges in manufacturing

Manufacturing facilities across Adelaide's industrial zones in Edinburgh, Lonsdale, and Wingfield face theft, workplace safety incidents, and after-hours break-ins that impact productivity and profitability.

Raw Material Theft

Metals, chemicals, and components stored on-site represent significant value. Organised theft rings target industrial areas, particularly during weekends and public holidays.

Finished Goods Pilferage

Products ready for dispatch are vulnerable during staging and loading. Internal shrinkage and external theft at loading docks require targeted camera coverage.

Workplace Safety

CCTV provides evidence for workplace incident investigations, helps monitor compliance with safety procedures, and supports WHS obligations under SafeWork SA requirements.

Large Perimeters

Manufacturing sites often span large footprints with extensive fencing, multiple gates, and vehicle access points that are difficult to monitor without technology.

Shift Change Security

Factories operating multiple shifts face unique challenges during changeovers, when gates are open and oversight is reduced.

IP & Process Protection

Proprietary manufacturing processes and equipment require restricted access zones. Unauthorised visitors and competitors must be prevented from accessing sensitive areas.

Our manufacturing security solutions

We design industrial-grade security systems that withstand harsh factory environments, dust, vibration, temperature extremes, and chemical exposure. Our systems are built to perform reliably in production settings.

  • * Perimeter CCTV with thermal and visible-light cameras.
  • * Loading dock coverage with vehicle identification.
  • * Production floor cameras rated for industrial conditions.
  • * Access control on gates, warehouses, and restricted zones.
  • * After-hours alarm monitoring with perimeter beam detection.
  • * Integration with gate automation and intercom systems.

Built for industrial environments

Standard commercial cameras fail quickly in factories. We specify equipment rated for dust ingress, washdown, vibration, and temperature ranges typical of Adelaide's industrial zones.

All cabling is protected in conduit or rated for industrial use. Camera positions are chosen to avoid obstruction from machinery, forklifts, and material movement.

How we secure your manufacturing facility

1. Risk & site survey

We map your facility layout, identify high-value zones, document entry points, and assess environmental conditions for camera selection.

2. System engineering

We specify industrial-rated cameras, NVR capacity, access control hardware, and network requirements based on your site's unique conditions.

3. Production-safe install

Installation is coordinated around production schedules. Hot works, overhead work, and cable routing are managed under safe work procedures.

4. Access zone configuration

Gates, doors, and restricted areas are programmed with role-based access levels matching your workforce structure.

5. Testing & commissioning

Every camera angle, alarm zone, and access point is verified under operational conditions including night testing.

6. Staff & management training

Operations managers, security staff, and shift supervisors are trained on monitoring, incident review, and system administration.

Manufacturing security FAQs

Can cameras handle dust and extreme temperatures?

Yes. We specify cameras with IP67 or higher ratings, sealed housings, and internal heaters or cooling fans as needed. Our equipment is selected specifically for industrial environments.

How do you handle large perimeters?

We combine thermal cameras for long-range detection with visible-light cameras for identification. Perimeter beam systems trigger camera presets automatically when breached.

Can the system track vehicle movements?

Yes. We install ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) cameras at gates and loading docks to log every vehicle entry and exit with timestamped plate records.

Will CCTV help with WorkSafe investigations?

Absolutely. Clear, timestamped footage of incidents helps establish facts for SafeWork SA investigations, workers' compensation claims, and internal safety reviews.

Can we restrict access to certain factory zones?

Yes. Card or fob access control allows you to define who can enter which areas and when. Access attempts are logged for audit purposes, and unauthorised attempts trigger alerts.

Do you install during production or shutdowns?

We can work around your production schedule, installing during planned shutdowns, weekends, or between shifts to minimise disruption to your operations.
