When I decided to open a pop shop, I devoted a great deal of time to finding the ideal building… I wanted a sizeable parking lot, straight-forward access and a bright, open space inside for patrons to feel comfortable, then since my budget was somewhat limited, I chose a house in an up-and-coming city, then during the sunlight hours, the area was plenty safe and thriving; My pop shop attracted a diversity of people… However, at that time, the eveningtime hours were worrisome, and there was still vandalism, robberies and other violent crimes happening in the city.

I worried about the security of my building once I left for the afternoon.

During the renovation prior to opening, I experienced theft during the evening. Someone broke in and stole several small appliances. I decided to invest into a monitored security system, complete with surveillance cameras, window sensors, door alarms and motion-activated lighting! When I began researching options for security systems, I came across building automation opportunities. It made more sense to invest into a system that would organize and optimize the operation of all essential appliances and system. The building automation system includes everything from lights and control unit to sound system, ovens and coffeemakers. The system makes my afternoons much easier and provides peace of mind. If anyone should force their way inside, an harshly loud alarm will immediately go off. If the respected code isn’t punched into the control panel within ten seconds, the local authorities will be dispatched to the property. I assume that the cameras and signs announcing the security system are enough to deter vandals and thieves.
