Retail Business Security

3 Steps To Successfully Secure Your Retail Business

There are a number of important factors to consider when building a security system for your business.

  • The type of business

  • Type of product

  • Areas of interest

  • Layout of the space

  • Condition and amount of outdoor lighting

These are all aspects that need to be evaluated before selecting the amount and types of cameras that best suit your situation. Arcdyn’s surveillance and security products are ideal for securing and monitoring small and large retail spaces against product shrinkage and other forms of inventory loss.

Step 1: Set Priority Areas of Coverage

Within every business there are areas that require increased coverage and redundancies. These areas can include:

  • All entrances and exits

  • Anywhere money will be exchanged or counted. These would include cash registers, checkout areas, and back offices.

  • Parking lot

  • Loading docks

  • Storefront

  • Dumpsters

Other security concerns for businesses can include exposure to customer injury liability. Having video record of a scammer faking a slip and fall will pay for your surveillance system 10 fold in the long run. Even help manage loitering, illegal dumping, and other inconveniences that you don't have time to monitor throughout the day and night. With Arcdyn smart video analytics your camera system goes beyond simply securing a space. Smart search and motion recording can make it a breeze to find the exact moment you're looking for, and motion heat mapping provides valuable insight into customer traffic and can tell you the best place to display your high margin times.

Step 2: Select the Right Cameras For the Job

Select the cameras based on the area you are trying to capture

Dart and Slingshot: These versatile cameras are our most popular and are perfect for covering a wide area. The bolt is a bullet style camera that can be mounted on a variety of surfaces including ceilings and walls. The Slingshot is a turret style camera (also referred to as an eyeball cam) and is extremely easy to mount and install. Both of these models are available in both 1080P and HD+ resolutions.


Bolt and Crossbow: When you need the ability to zoom in after the fact and get the best image possible, go with these cameras. Their 4k resolution is the highest out there and will ensure a clean crisp image that allows you to provide positive ID for the authorities.

Catapult: For businesses that have an on site loss prevention officer, The catapult Pan Tilt Zoom camera is an invaluable tool. It’s 20x zoom will allow you to see what you need when you need it.


Bullseye: This 360 degree cam is perfect for large open areas. With a single camera, you can easily provide an overview of your entire floor from a central location. Dewarping and ePTZ functionality is built right into our app, which makes doing your job easier.

Step 3: Select The Right Network Video Recorder

The NVR is the heart of your arcdyn retail business security system. Selecting the correct model now can can save you big in the long run. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Ensure you have adequate bitrate to record all your cameras. Some cameras take more processing power to record than others. Check out our camera and NVR bitrate guide to see how our FlexRes technology gives you more options.

  • Configure your system with enough Surveillance Grade, Hard Drive Storage. Skimping here means less time before your footage gets overwritten.

  • Select a model that has adequate POE ports or purchase on of our professional POE switches to power and connect your each camera with a single cable.
